*Watching the USA-Canada Gold Medal game at Mo's, I saw their flyer for the various musicians performing on St. Patrick's Day, including the inimitable GARchipelagan Mr Rhodes. Took me a minute to figure why I knew the name -- Rhodes was not, alas, listed as such -- then remembered. I was almost tempted to show up & heckle him, demanding he play some Drive-by Truckers & show all us 'Sconny fucks how it's done, but didn't want to dignify him with my in-person vitriol. Anyway, people like the GARchipelagans, in spirit if not TASKE, are a dime a dozen, here.
Man that would have been awesome if you showed up and asked for DBT. I would have loved to see everyone's face.
