>From an interview this week in a local rag with Jim Cuddy of Blue Rodeo:

"You can get tired of rocking, it can seem forced, because it's harder to
do than stand up on stage and be melancholy. It's so much easier to sum up
the integrity of your pain than it is to channel some joy.

Let's say, two bands like Wilco and Son Volt. I love both these bands, but
I cannot watch a whole Son Volt concert. I think 'Fuck, smile, Jay. It's
not so bad. You're getting 15 thousand bucks and there are all these people
here. What could be so awful?'  And so Wilco appeals to me more because
there's a much more rambunctious, detailed spirit. "

Regards, Allen Baekeland
