Tonight's Recommended Show: Robyn Hitchcock & The Venus 3, Sean Nelson & His Mortal Enemies, Johanna Kunin at the Crocodile

REM -- MurmurRemember when you were in high school with your bedroom walls covered with REM posters and your Pre-Calc notebook covered with lines like "Talk about the passion" and "Miles Standish proud, congratulate me?"  Did you ever, in your wildest Quantum Leap dreams, think that you'd be in the same bar as Peter Buck?

Yea, me neither. 

Tonight, at the Crocodile, is our big chance! We not only get to see our pal PB play guitar with Robyn Hitchcock (did you also have "Sometimes I Wish I Was A Pretty Girl" on that Pre-Calc notebook?) but you get to see the suave Sean Nelson opening up (my money's on the fact that Sean will get up for some hot hot Robyn/Sean duet action). Johanna Kunin (who's been touring the US with Robyn) will also be opening up. We're not sure what she sounds like, but with friends like that...she's bound to have some good stories, right? 

What are you all doing tonight?

The day "Murmur" came out, I had just quit my Kodak film coupons telemarketing job because they shorted me on a check, and went to Strawberry Jams record store in Spokane, and bought that and the (then brand new too) Richard Thompson album "Hand of Kindness." I hit the Safeway near the house which had the basement I lived in, and bought two forty ouncers, which I downed, listening to "Murmur" over and over till daybreak. Flipping it over and over ... having to hear it again, and again, and again. "Perfect Circle" then forced me to buy an electric guitar ... and due to some additional forty ouncers, nothing much became of that ...
