Re: American Pie and Don McClean.

He's from my hometown and he went to my junior high, though he was a decade and a half ahead of me. After he got all famous (and shit) he came back to his alma mater to play a few songs in the auditorium. (Also known as a large room full of 13, 14, 15 year olds.)

After playing a song or maybe two (I'm guessing 'Vincent' judging by the reaction from us. He pretty much went ballistic and read us the riot act for being snickering, tittering, grab-assing teens who didn't really give a flying fuck about Don McClean.

Ibram: and just to imagine what it was like to listen to radio in the 70s, listen to American pie ten times a day for six months then start a thread called "How fucking awesome American Pie Still is after I've heard it 1800 times"


Although I still get choked up when I listen to Vincent.
