Inside the Outhouse

Long before the Bottleneck and the Replay, the Outhouse ruled Lawrence's burgeoning rock scene

Remember the Outhouse. Though their cry is quieted with each passing year, the soldiers who once turned a nondescript cinder-block shack on the edge of Lawrence into a punk rock icon still roam the earth.
