Good to hear he's still active. I still say Zen Arcade is (a little) overrated, but the appeal of Double Nickels is totally lost on me.

Saw Greg Norton (the moustachioed one) a couple weeks back at a music fest in Minneapolis. He was hanging out with the Bad Plus bass player and the Happy Apple bass player. He owns and operates a really nice little restaurant in MN and occasionally plays bass in Gang Font featuring: Interloper, a group with Dave King and Erik Fratzke and other cool noisy cats. viva MN!

Jacob two-two indeed, and I'm sure that's where they got their name, being good Canadian kids and all. Unfortunately their EP isn't on emusic, but they're young and full of good energy. Saw them open for Bishop Allen last year. Thx Nergal (and I’d never make fun of you…. bet I’ve been a beergal longer than you’ve been a nergal :)
