Re: OPENING ACT IN NYC



I'm not Wilbur or Orville, the Redenbacher Brothers, but it's interesting to
see a Bob Mould thread on this list, as there was a Who thread on the Sugar
list a few months ago...

I was fortunate enough to be turned on to Husker Du in college, and have
always found some similarities between Mould's work and that of Pete's.  Zen
Arcade was definitely influenced by Tommy and Quadrophenia, as was Warehouse:
Songs and Stories.

Another similarity - Mould and Grant Hart, Husker Du's drummer and other
singer/songwriter, fought constantly and still don't speak to each other to
this day...
