I got turned onto The Magnolias by my great friend, Jeremy. It wasn’t really until 1992, and they were pretty much finished up at that point. As a result, I’ve never seen them live.

They played a show in Minneapolis Saturday May 31st, as a warm-up for their June tour of Europe. here’s a video:

They’re playing Minneapolis again June 27th, but there’s really no way I can go. It would make for a great pre-birthday concert, but Minneapolis is so far away it seems.

maybe I’ll win the lottery…

(guess I should play it then, eh?!)
