He's a Neil Young fan; he should know better.
I remember liking something Hyden wrote a while back through a different outlet (AV Club, maybe?) and being glad to see him join Grantland…but goddamn if this isn't the second or third piece of his in a row that I found insufferable from the jump and couldn't even finish.

Still loving this. I think "Heart is a Drum" and "Country Down" are my two favorite tracks.

I'm seeing him in Tucson April 23rd. A small theater, I believe. I hope it gets real intimate.

I went to school with him in Milwaukee. He lives in Tucson with his wife & dog. He's never listened to a Beck album, but that doesn't matter to me considering he has an extra bed, and is driving.
