My musical taste shifted pretty drastically when I went off to graduate school. I gave up my narrow minded punk rock ways for country, rap, bluegrass and folk. My studio mate was the one who introduced me to the Jayhawks and eventually convinced me that Bob Dylan was worth listening to.

I've always loved that Gillian Welch tune, although I'll admit that I still don't understand what it's about.
Anime who writes a (good) song titled "Minneapolis" is A-OK in my book.
Er, make that "anyone who..."
She wrote a pretty good song about a guy from Minneapolis, too.

Lucinda married a dude from Minneapolis, no?
You're right. Plus, they got married on stage at First Avenue.
All four times that I saw her were at that downtown former bus station--the first one in front of about a hundred people. Fantastic shows, all.
I should add that over this time period I also found bands like Built To Spill, Guided By Voices, Q and Not You, and Modest Mouse.

I was a little late to the alt rock party, but most of these cats are still in pretty heavy rotation.
BTW--Nice job vee-jayin' this week, Tex.
Agreed. For my tastes, every day had something worth 11 stars.
