as far as the discussion on the D, i had a chance to see them in concert, but they were opening for Kid Rock...i hate hate HATE Kid Rock! enough that i didn't go to the concert, even though i really wanted to see the D. i can't wait till they put out another cd...
OH, and if any of you mid-westerners are reading, i just read today that They Might Be Giants are going to be playing in Bloomington, IN (I.U. Campus) soon, i think i may try and go...if anyone's interested, i'll get them details!
