Heh. Somebody discovers the dBs for the first time.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've only heard the dBs once, when they opened for R.E.M. I was not impressed, but then again, seeing a band live is often not the best introduction to that band's music for me. I've always meant to give the dBs another chance....
That does happen to me from time to time - I'll be aware of a band and have a feeling (based on friends or critics) that I should give them a listen. Years can go by. Then I do listen to them and I think, hey, they were right.
I'm not sure what the point of this post is.

Ooh, he mentioned Of Montreal.
I've never heard of the dBs, let alone heard them, but that should surprise no one.

It's funny to me because I bought their albums when they came out. And they weren't easy to find or cheap since they were both imports.

I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine
I saw the dBs at Tower Records in New Orleans during Mardi Gras 1988 (Lundi Gras to be specific if memory serves.) Probably wouldn't have gone had a friend of mine not been a big fan. I got her an autograph after the show. Peter Holsapple asked me to whom he should sign it, at which point I drew a complete blank. Uh, uh, uh... I can picture her and her name is... He laughed at me, but I came up with quickly enough for him to sign. "Cathy! With a C!"

Which album did Misha write about? (I'm at work so I can't look it up.)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I picked this up a couple of weeks ago. It's fun to watch while I'm riding my stationary bike.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
