So when i decided to start actually writing about each show i figured i'd have something to say each week. Well this week.. not so much. I could complain that i didn't have time to switch out cds in my case because i spent Memorial Day weekend in Heber Springs. But lets just face facts: the reason it didn't do it is because i'm just lazy and a poor time manager.
I'm glad that i just said "darn" over the air, when i realized i was playing Spoon for the second time in an hour.
I can tell my Je Suis France story. Apparently they got their name when one of the band members was in a High School (possibly college) French class. One day there was a test. The band member observed a frat/jock type attempting to psyche himself up for the test by repeating "Je Suis France" (translation: I am France) over and over again. And a band name was born.

I had a friend in college who wanted me to teach him French, so i taught him to say, "Je suis la jeune fille." (I am the young girl). Even after a few days when I told him what he was saying, he never slowed down and spent the next 6 months randomly yelling it around town.
