Trevor and I went to school together, worked together, even lived together for awhile. I always loved hanging out with him. It's nice to see how many people felt the same.

12 Jan 2011
While doing a little research on this, I also found out that Jack Pearson, another Minnesota musician, passed away in April. I bet you a googleplex that some around here are familiar with him.
The Suburbs – Music For Boys
I have the opinion that this song should have been a massive hit, its so darned catchy.
Bad Bad Hats – Midway
And here you were probably expecting Courtney Barnett.
I decided it would be nice to feature something that's not been played at the basement before. After AMR referenced Bad Bad Hats (I keep wanting to add a comma after the first "Bad"), this song caught my attention and compelled me to check out the rest of their new album.
You can download the entire Psychic Reader album here for free (or purchase it in vinyl) if you're so inclined.
The Replacements – Alex Chilton
I don't recall a big de-briefing around here, but this was a pretty awesome show.
