Both of your Idolators are big fans of Magnet magazine (for which we've contributed a handful of stories). We're also big fans of this correction, which appears in the newest issue:
The review of Norfolk & Western's A Gilded Age contained false information; singer Adam Selzer's great-grandfather was not a train conductor, and the band does not tour exclusively by train.
So was this an actual review? Or some hallucinatory, railroad-intensive fever dream?

I'm still waiting for them to retract the statement, made a few years ago, that Stephen Malkmus is "the greatest living songwriter."
sounds like the reporter didnt "get" the band ... my favorite all-time correction is
"Due to a typing error, Gov Dukakis was incorrectly identified in the third paragraph as Mike Tyson"
There are so many WRONG things about that cover.
The Gin Blossoms piece, possibly?
That's the chemical overloaded maraschino cherry, yes.
Oh, I just assumed that the Gin Blossoms piece was an elaborate ruse. It's not?
Really?
