It's a great read. It's clearly intended by Richard Lloyd as something of a hit piece against Tom Verlaine but I found myself way more sympathetic to Verlaine by the end.

The local symphony is doing a S&G tribute next weekend; I'm a lot more excited about going than I thought I would be.

Speaking of Simon and Garfunkel, I'm on a shuttle right now with some modern, screamy version of "Sound of Slience" playing on the radio. Wtf is that??

Meg Myers is goddamn amazing. Lament mentioned her a while back, like 3 years ago, but I finally gave her stuff a real listen. She's incredible.

It's now the first thing you find when googling "Sound of silence" (at least for me) and has 181 million views. UGH

I was bouncing around different Simon and Garfunkel albums the other day. There was a song where it's just Simon singing for a while, and then Garfunkel comes in at the end with that beautiful voice of his and my knees buckled; it was something else. I can't remember the song now, though. I'll find it.
