Some great choices there, some I thought long about including. Though gotta admit, The Refreshments, LOVE that one song, but never cared about the rest of the album. I might need to give it another listen though.

Sweet, I am going to see them on Dec 1 at the HOB Nola. It'll be my first time seeing them (even though they're only half the original lineup).
