2541

To guys like me the numbers 2541 have always meant a lot; The Replacements' Tim was recorded there along with Husker Du's New Day Rising, the Minneapolis one that started it all, The Trashmen's Surfin' Bird, and so much more. And of course Grant Hart summed its ending up perfectly at the end:
Hart, in surveying the demise of his band, isn’t looking at particular people or recounting specific actions, but taking inventory of the packed moving boxes by the front door. “Now everything is over, now everything is done,” he sings. “Everything’s in boxes at twenty-five forty-one.”
