A little snippet of Built to Spill in Austin last night, encore. “I would hurt a fly” Annoyed by the shoulder surfer popping up right then for the only time in the entire show anything like that happened. Of course. Great show!
Numbers! What do we call those of us who got here in the waning days of the invitation-only era, but haven’t been here long enough to be “elders?” As a member of Gen X, it seems appropriate to be in a small, forgotten category.
Not technically from my life, but Tom Waits once made fun of my dad for drinking Perrier backstage.
