Not speaking for the rest of the country, but West Virginia has always been the New Jersey of North Carolina.

Absolutely, the first two-thirds of "Till the Band Comes In" is the last good album of the first phase of Walker's career. In my fantasy TV variety show, a "Little Things" production number would be the last straw that makes the network fire me, and it would totally be worth it.

For what it's worth, Logomania is a parody of the Oscar-winning Logorama short. The original was a cartoon about a town built out of and populated by (mostly) real-world advertising logos. And just to screw around with us, they slipped Slurm in.
