another day in the life...

We were in the little grocery store in Paris when '74-'75 by the Connells came on the muzak. I had recently introduced la_sherazade to them. She turned to me. "Do you hear what's playing? I thought you said they were a local band?" Well, yeah. When I was in college I would run into the Connell guys in The Fresh Market fairly often. It was odd because one of them knew me and the other didn't, and the only way I could tell them apart was by saying hello and seeing if they looked surprised. To me, that's local. By the same token, I consider local: Corrosion of Conformity (the drummer lived next door) and The Bad Checks (Hunter "Crash" Landen was a friend in high school). Look, whispy little clouds!
