loisboy and i were talking about this a bit ago about how much of himself elliot poured into his music and how much i respected that. he said that he is going to be greatly missed and i noted that he probably didn't feel like he would be missed at all. isn't that often the way it is though? i am sad today for his family/friends. he will be missed greatly in the indie music community. i might have to buy a couple of his albums now. it's strange how someone passing pushes them up towards the top of my want list.alex

oh wait, no, i don't write for the washington post. if i did, i wouldn't know the front man's first NAME! i wouldn't have mentioned any of the above HIGHLY PERTINENT facts in a review of their show either. no wonder i can't get a job.
