Way Back Wednesday: Pavement

I had a dream last night that I had to give Stephen Malkmus and Scott Kannberg from Pavement a ride in my car.  I'm not sure where we were going, but I remember being embarassed of my car and the fact that I couldn't fit everyone in.  I had to scramble to try to get an acceptable vehicle to transport the musical love of my life and ended up stealing my BFF's car to do it.  Not sure what this dream meant other than the fact that I need a new car, but it importantly reminded me of how much I miss the musical stylings of Pavement.  If this blog were a wish jar, I would ask that Pavement reunite at least every couple of years for a tour.  I'm not greedy, they don't have to tour constantly.  I'd just like to have some Pavement love in my life every now and again.

Side note:
In this week's edition of "dayum gurl, you're ooooldddd": Pavement's seminal debut record Slanted and Enchanted just turned 20.  In honor of that, here's one of my favorites from this record, "Trigger Cut," recorded live from their last set of shows.
