so someone got me thinking about old Hüsker Dü stuff and I had to dig some of that up. In the course of looking up/reminiscing on that (I forgot how good Zen Arcade was), I somehow got on the topic of Bob Mould and in the listing of Bands Produced, a familiar name appeared.
Never saw them, but I knew this celebrity back in the day: we went to school together, had some classes in common, and pondered the merits of rock ‘n roll stardom. She moved to Atlanta just as it got hot, it seems, what with the boys in REM making labels pay attention and the overflow from the fecund Athens scene. Looks like she knows all about it now . . . good for her. She was quite determined and knew a hell of a lot more about music than I did.
Actually, I knew she had been quite successful, from when I lived in Atlanta. I was surprised to see in the Wikipedia article that she live[d/s] in Seattle.
