Book lover, record collector, shitty rhythm guitarist
It’s happened to me with a handful of records. For some reason, it only seems to happen with records, but they travel through endless hops. Sometimes back-and-forth between post office is close to me and where they originally shipped from.

All-timer in the catalog. Always the best moment of any live set

You can make a full year out of just Guided by Voices / Robert Pollard releases. He’s his own genre

Happened to be up there from Indy yesterday and wandered into this event. What a great day for this.

I can still remember the spell this cast the first time I heard it.

My band closes every show with this one

There was a Midwest touring band in the 80s named PS Dump Your Boyfriend - always wondered if Bob was writing about them.

The second has often been described by Bob as “the ballad of Guided by Voices”

Put some danger in your life
And more ink in your tattoo

Phenomenal lyric

This was lovingly referred to as the “p-ss break” song during the EC tour, largely because it played over a video that opened the shows, and then the band played it later towards the end.
