Used to see Meloy's band Tarkio play at Jay's Upstairs here in Missoula in his pre-Decemberists days. That band was okay. This one . . . not my thing at all. Julia and I were just talking about music last night, and I was wondering if I will like the indie rock popular now that I LOATHE better in 20-30 years, kind of like I now really like a lot of the pop stuff I hated back when I was in high school. Time will tell, right?
Well, Chris, I still strongly dislike the work of Kajagoogoo, the Romantics, the Knack, and Madonna Ciccone, the last having particularly refused to go completely away.

I love them, was fortunate enough to see them in concert last year. They're amazing on stage.
You tend to drop the third E, Patti...
