I would like to think some bluegrass band tried to cover "Black Angel's Death Song" at some festival once, and was told, "If you play that song, you're fired!" and did it anyway, and…

I've also seen "PR shoes," which I suspect is wrong.

Oh, okay.

I remember when I first bought this album on cassette tape, and almost immediately starting bothering my mother with it.
I mean, that's not *why* I bought it, but…

No kidding.

My problem with it is that I enjoy many albums by many bands that are entirely outside the sphere of Velvet-influenced acts. So while I love the album under discussion without question, I also love many others in equal amounts, which I suspect ain't gonna fly in this particular comment thread.

Including bands that existed before the Velvet Underground!

Eeyore shoooes, and a big straw hat!

"They provide options to treat them that a lot of people can't afford."

This is why -in general- the tossing out of "privilege" as argument ender really doesn't work.

Viola Davis!

Yeah, it would be great if he were singing that on the front porch, ten hours late, wearing a big straw hat.

It was whassername with the generalization, not an AVC staffer, right?

I was fond of serenading my tables -when I was still in the Service profession- with a ditty of my own called, "I'll Be Your Waiter."

Nope! Not possible!

Note perfect; considering the high-school level metaphysician you're responding to.

Cale is Ahriman to Reed's Ahura Mazda!
