Stars Of The '90s Continue To Align For Shows, Meals, Fever Dreams Of Fans

I think we've made enough jokes about the many broken-up bands of yesteryear reuniting just in time to grab their last bit of pre-global-crash money for you to anticipate the punchline even before I get to the end of this sentence.

The Vault: Today's Monday, So Neutral Milk Hotel Will Love You Tomorrow

Over the weekend, we found the Yo Yo A Go Go compilation in a local bargain bin; it's a double-disc set of performances from the 1994 Yoyo A Go Go Festival in Olympia, Wash., and it has live tracks from the likes of Beck, the Halo Benders, Heavens To Betsy, and Versus. (Not bad for $3.99.) The real find on the comp, though, is "Love You On A Tues.," a little rave-up from Neutral Milk Hotel that sounds like a direct ancestor of On Avery Island's "Song Against Sex": More »
