It usually seems like Steve's call, but Shellac does this for the most part.
Yes, but compare the breadth of material: 3 albums of Shellac songs (plus a couple EPs) compared to 7 albums of Fugazi songs plus EPs.

Agreed - though if I were shouting out the Fugazi set it would be only three

I disagree. I think all of their material is worthwhile because their sound really changed over the course of their tenure as a band. In fact, I even prefer the post-
Killtaker stuff.

I would sign the petition, so long as they pledge to get their keyboard player back. The one who played the leg of the Canadian tour and was booted out for drinking a shandy.

I used to play shove ha'penny in a club where my dad used to drink.
Fun game. Basically, it's the granddaddy of Pitch & Toss, only for kicks instead of shrapnel.

I heard about that Guy recording session. Didnt he join a band onstage here in Montreal? I think someone told me that.
By the way, nice Neil Hamburger interview. Keep up the good work man. How do you get so many good guests?
