I got to visit the school counselor in junior high (7th or 8th grade, 1980(ish)) because I chose this song to read in English for an assignment on song lyrics as poetry.

Zevon needs more love, and should be in the Rock n Roll HOF. β€œI’ll sleep when I’m dead”

I always liked how in Jurassic Park The Lost World Roland Tembo's nemesis who sabotages his rifle is named Nick van Owen.

Got to see Magnolia Electric Co. 6 months or so before Jason Molina died.

I had never seen them before, actually mistook the guitarist for venue staff and asked him where the men’s room was.

Unsure of what to expect, I hear the first notes of the opener… β€œDun-nun, nun-nun-nun,” and before Molina finishes belting out β€œI’m hiding in Hondurus,” I’m airborne, jumping up and down.

I swear, no one else at the club knew the cover, so Jason’s eyes found mine real quick and he shot me a huge grin. Amazing start to an amazing show. RIP Molina + Zevon; enjoy every sandwich!

An homage to an underrated musician who was an incredible writer.
