I heard somewhere what SY wrote Teenage Riot about J. Is this true or just a crazy rumor?

From sonicyouth.com:

Quote:

Working title: "Rock and Roll For President", supposedly written about a fantasy world where J. Mascis is president.

A friend of mine gave me this for my birthday last year:

Sonic Youth – Corporate Ghost: Videos, 1990-2002

It’s one of the best things I’ve ever received in the form of a small disc-shaped object!

Now i am confused-i went to amazon to look for ‘teenage riot’ and it is listed on the sonicyouth video comp: "screaming fields of sonic love".
it is not on the one you mention-right?

Oops! Teenage Riot’s not on that DVD… I forgot.

Daydream Nation came out in ’89. This DVD has all the videos from Goo – Murray Street. I heard somewhere that they’re going to come out with the pre-nineties videos at some point, but I have no proof to back that up…

It’s still a great DVD though.
