It's been a minute huh? Am I still in the top 10 commenters? 20 years is a hell of a long time. Weird to think I joined nearly at the beginning of things. This site made my high school years bearable and my college years full of adventure and music. The magnificent folks I met through this forum are lifelong friends. I'll try to find some Souper Sum It photos from our first big meet ups back in 03 and 04! (Donna, I'll probably forget about the photos. They're all in an album on my Facebook if I do!) Love to all my fellow ViaChicagoans past and present.

academic dishonestly is not something to be joked about! -
he once told natalie 'we stalk our fans'. we should change our motto: "Here at VC, stalking is a two way street!"

in southern il, the new madrid faultline is talked about often (i took a geology course and they wouldn't shut up about it.) thanks to uncle tupelo, i actually knew what my profs were talking about from the very first moment! being a wilco junkie has its benefits. -
ooooh....i dunno....Misunderpants is still a frontrunner in my opinion.

Alt. Country Scholarly Articles/Books?
Tweedy's Gurl replied to stickman's topic in Someone Else's Song
'we've been had' would be good if you want to bring in the socio-political commentary aspect of punk. ('atomic power' would make a nice contrast.) dude, don't stress. if you need music geek assistance, this is the right place to come! the waco brothers are one of my favorite 'alt country' bands...they've been called 'cash meets clash'...worth checking out in general, and for your paper as well. (jon langford helped to form bloodshot records.) i'm avoiding writing a paper about citizen kane and the magnificent ambersons right now....shoot me a pm if you wanna talk alt. country! -

jstor is a godsend. you can find the coolest stuff! i'm sure there must be articles about gram parsons, even if there aren't so many about the new wave of alt country. -
