Bless you, my child, for spinning the Old 97s, singing, 'Bloomington'... Each legendary in it's own right ..."Wanting to harden your heart, but not being allowed to do so"... Is that art imitating life, or, life imitating art? Irrespective of which it's timeless. And, Kudos for putting Big Star, the Detroit Cobras and the Silver Jews on weekly set list!! PS: Next time I see or speak to you, say two simple words: Those Darlins... I have MAJOR scoop! lp
