NYC

Heartbreaker was an incredible album but I wouldn't call myself a Ryan Adams fan; by that I mean I haven't really given a shit about anything he's put out since, no matter how impressed I am that he married Mandy Moore. But I'll never forget a coupla weeks before this video came out, when he was playing the same show as Marah and I was regaling him and Dave with the story of how I'd gotten kicked out of the Mercury Lounge the night before. He was very amused and told me shit man, that's hard to fucking do. Two hours later I brought down the house with my egg-shaker riff during Marah's version of Can't Hardly Wait, but that's for another day.

This is a great song, but like Runaway Train has nothing to do with runaway kids, I always thought it was funny that it was not influenced by 9/11 in any way. I didn't know you met RA though? He gave me a whats up while playing Asteroids at the Comet in 96, but other than that, you trumped me as usual.
