My wife and daughter are coming from Chicago and North Carolina to march in DC tomorrow. Proud of them.

John Smith, I'm hoping you intentionally misspelled the band name in the thread title to make it sound like something one of the SNL Chicago Bears Superfans would say. If so, well done!

^^ Love them both. Equally. Like my children.

^^ "A Gathering of Pedants" would be a good name for an album.

^^^ Thanks to you and PopTodd for the Stereolab recommendations. Loving Mars Audiac Quintet and Transient Random Noise Bursts With Announcements. How did I overlook this band for so damn long?!

^^ Morgan, Lewis is a legit law firm.

Watched two good movies this week: "Listen Up, Phillip" and "We Jam Econo" -- the latter being a documentary on The Minutemen.

^^^ That's hysterical.

^^^ That's a great Iggy list. I'm Bored is my favorite Iggy song. I'd swap out Lust for Life for Nightclubbing, but it's a minor quibble.

^^^ I also was a bit bummed about not getting Fox River as it's one of my favorites. I had my whole family there (7 of us) and we had a blast. Front row. I thought the stuff off "Going Down in History" sounded great. Jon didn't look so good, but he had lots of energy (as always) and sounded great. A great night for me.

Revenge of the Mekons on Netflix. Nice tribute to a great band.
