The San Francisco Bay area doesn't do too badly, though Chicago's given
me as much new music to like (Gastr Del Sol, Pinetop Seven, Freakwater,
Robbie Fulks, Green, Flying Luttenbachers, Kahil El'Zabar, Handsome
Family, Wacos/Mekons/Sally Timms, 8 Bold Souls, Oliver Lake, Dianogah,
etc.) as any town has this decade.
