I have to say, Colby, that one harmless link back into 2003 you put into this post has got me reading pretty well your entire archive from that point onward. I'm on June 2004 now: there was just a letter from some obscure "Lethbridge reader Matt Fenwick". Good letter. Wonder what happened to that guy.

He OD'd on heroin not long after his first album went multi-platinum. Or so I hear.

It's like what they said about the Velvet Underground, man. Only a couple hundred people ever saw them live, but they all started bands of their own.
