Shhhh. Don't tell anyone until we have our tickets (the Pixies sold out in about 10 seconds, and Bob could too).

Saw him twice in VAN when Sugar was alive.

This tour includes Sugar and Husker DU Songs. Body of Song was a good CD IMO>

I just picked up two tickets to the New Pornographers (at least I think I did - the Ticketmaster voice ordering is INFURIATING):

OK, I got my tickets now, so now you can too.

Guitarist/singer/songwriter Bob Mould was initially a member of Hüsker Dü, one of the most influential American bands of the '80s. Hüsker Dü was a post-hardcore punk band that helped define the sound and ideals of alternative rock

I saw Husker Du during my frosh week in '87. I had no clue who they were, other than they were supposed to be really good.

Thanks Loob for posting this last week. I wouldn't have been going otherwise. Hope it'll be good in the Ballroom.

Mine was '87 as well. I dunno, I was having some beer and meeting a whole crapload of new people (when did that skill leave me?), so I don't really remember much about them other than now when I hear the name I am reminded of that time.
