M. Ward, The Shins, and The White Stripes on NPR
Today on National Public Radio a concert is (maybe was by the time this is posted) being broadcast featuring M. Ward, The Shins, and The White Stripes. A good show, I sadly missed M. Ward, which I would have liked to hear the most. The Shins are currently playing, which would be my second choice. They sound very good and the performance is coming through very clear, thanks to NPR. Im going to post this now, hoping that some reader will catch it.

I wonder if things were reversed, if M. Ward were most popular and The White Stripes were very small and unknown, if my preference for hearing them would in turn be reversed. I would like to say no. Honestly, I don't know. I wish I could say for sure. All the bands are worth a listen though. Sorry to post this so late. I hope someone hears it. Good music from all involved.

i am quite saddened by the fact that I missed said show. Quite saddened - not for your lack of trying, though. I just received your IM too late (or, more accurately, read your IM too late).
And, I do not think the popularity of the bands has anything to do w/ how much you like them - Ward and the Shins have a much richer, more rewarding sound than the Stripes - and I love me some White Stripes.
On a side note - I have no idea what that Andrea Peterson is talking about, but.... Well - I can't think of anything redeeming. what a weirdo.
I think I'm in love.
