oh man i saw the dears play there third album at the 9:30 club in d.c. and they were stupid good and there last album i could argue to be there best. there was a band im embarrassingly blanking on that was all female, canadian i think, who sounded so indebted to the smiths. did a song called love love love i think and made a music video that had them in there underwear around there house (not in an overtly sexy way, kinda bummy). album might have had the word city in it and i think she was a lesbian. if you can think of what theyre called id be forever grateful. anyway if you know of whom i speak i always thought theyd be great as a morrissey opener. personally i think he should use different opening bands for each continent.
