please ignore the team rocket-esque t-shirts; they really were one of the best dressed bands in the business. also, nash, while being one of the ugliest men in rock 'n' roll, had one of the best voices in my opinion, and some nice chops besides.

I was thinking about playing something really weird to end it here, with lots of cheesy synths, because if we've learned anything this week, I think it's that I have a healthy appetite for cheesy synths. But I decided to just give you some Spoon instead, for MPR's own 89.3 The Current. Thanks to the VJs for giving me the reins this week, and to everyone for indulging my tastes, past and present.
