Via NY Daily News:

Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore didn’t mind that classmates nicknamed him Lurch. After all, “Lurch was the coolest guy on ?The Addams Family,’” the 6-foot-1 rocker told Webster Hall’s Baird Jones at the KS Gallery exhibit of Moore’s collages. “Lurch was centered. He was the only person The Thing respected. Lurch was a role model for our times.”

Not gonna say we don’t see it, ex-classmates of Thurston, but in terms of sheer Lurchitude, Moore’s got nothing on Kerry’s chin grin.

    He’s gotta be taller than 6′1″. Or the rest of Sonic Youth are dwarfs.

    I’m 6′2″ and I walked past Thurston at a WFMU Record Fair once. He was taller than me by at least a couple of inches, probably more.
