Ha, yeah! They almost killed me…

The Fannies are a lucky geographical one to be fair. They will often do short notice gigs in small venues for charities etc.

The Hold Steady, 17 times in 13 different cities. Teenage Fanclub 15 times, all in Glasgow.

I still haven't given up hope: chance encounter in a left, you never know…

Which seems fair. Both still sickeningly attractive even 25 years later!

I didn't want much when I was 14, except to be married to Liz Phair. 25 years later, still haven't achieved that, but man, what great records as a consolation prize!

Brilliant movie. Did make me wonder why we stopped being impressed by intellect and started to fear it.

Yes, we have no excuses for those fuckers.

Arctic Monkeys are huge over here. Most British readers would find it odder Elvis Costello had headlined as he's way bigger in the US.

'Nowhere Nothin' Fuck-Up' deserves a spot but overall I can't complain too much. And you should definitely see them live if you can. They are fucking killer.
