Major understatement. I like all 3 bands, but a few songs excepted, SK is wayyyyy heavier than The Bangles or The Go-Gos. Almost another genre altogether. And, though it doesn't show in the song you linked, Janet Weiss (sp?) is one bad-ass drummer (and currently playing with Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks).

I loved that book. I also loved the movie.

They had very little in common, beyond my love.

(Going Back to Cali is the best song on that soundtrack.)

1. Yes, actually she does.

Then she'd be among the (few) living bad-ass drummers.

Well, that's probably true. And the "huge fan" thing was an overstatement. What can I say? I have Sebby Envy.

Thank you to Gawker commenter and Tumblr-er KarenUhOh for the reminder.

*What's that? You only mock me for my love of music with literate yet emotionally-intense lyrics sung softly by granola-eating chicks, a/k/a what Flower called something like "Acoustic Estrogen"? Uh, nevermind.
Dig it.

Someone said "Beetlejuice" three times and Penske showed up. It was all downhill from there.

CDF (good to see you!)

ETA that I see Not Bob's still rocking the re: lines. And it's not even Manic Monday (or F-U Friday).

She misses you too. You were perfect together. You didn't have to ply her with alcohol, and she didn't have to go all John Henry on your penis pump.
