“One thing Sonic Youth always did, almost to a gross point, was that they always knew who the hot journalists were and they always became really close,” says Bert. “You’d go to a party and Kim would know who the Village Voice writer was in the corner of the room and she’d make sure she went over there. They were really good at schmoozing in every respect. They always made sure they met as many popular, famous people as they could, whether it be the art world or the music world. They were always really good at that—they always knew who to meet, who to know.”
