The story was about what I can remember about Jim and Sonja. Through Jim I met a great girl named Kristy Jo from Corvallis in another story that I've just now written and deleted. Even now when I think I should be pissed off at him, I'm not. It should be pretty fuckin' obvious that I have no idea what to write about Jim. It's a good porch for drinking cheap beers and staring at the scenery. I've lived here since and once in a while Jim stops by to visit. My sister left her apartment on 19th Street so we took it over. The Grid, by the way, is the section of town cut off by 2 rivers (Sacramento, American) and 2 highways (I-80, Highway 50). We went down every street in the grid just to say we went down every street in the grid. We drove around Sacramento looking for a place. Jim was a great roommate (and a great cook, too). I've looked up to him since the 80s, but I don't think he ever knew that. Jim went to grad school in Corvallis and mastered in Geology. Concord and The East Bay just wasn't good enough when Jim and Hal had Cal State Sacramento sitting here waiting. Tales of Terror ruled the early 80s of Sac, but Sewer Trout (from Concord!) was the high point of Sacto late 80s punk. Sewer Trout played many an early Gilman Street show. Please take a look while you have some Sewer Trout or Elmer playing in the background. Kerry Loewen, Jim & Hal's cousin Amber's husband, posted up the pictures he scanned for Jim's wake. Here's a link to a couple Sewer Trout songs.īut he stilled screamed - someone help me Elmer was a country punk band, but it was like Sewer Trout evolving. Mostly punk rock bands from the 80s through the 90s. He's best known for Sewer Trout (songwriting, singing and his super catchy bass) and Elmer (songwriting, singing and guitar). Jim was in Death Culture, Lazy Boy, The OtterPops, Laughing Jesus, Well Hung Monks, and The New Vulgarians. I can't say it wasn't unexpected, but everyone hoped it wasn't going to happen. Jim's cousins are doing a photo site, that I don't know the URL yet. If you'd like to send me pictures, I can post them. There will be another service for Jim in Portland (Jim's other adopted hometown), a week later. The service starts at 1pm on Sunday, December 4th. There will be a memorial service at his house in Sacramento (6151 2nd Ave). Jim's got a mom and dad, Ismini and Tom a younger brother, Hal countless cousins and Heidi. His dad, Tom came up from Concord to check on Jim and found him.
Jim MacLean took his own life Monday or Tuesday after the Thanksgiving weekend.
