Two Things I Bought in Gainesville this Weekend
1) from Goerings, the best (and nearly last) indie book store in town
2) a tee shirt for the band Andrew Jackson Jihad, about whom I knew nothing at the time; but I had made it a personal goal to drop 20 bucks at Wayward Council before leaving town. A tee shirt for AJJ’s “Only God Can Judge Me” EP, plus a Wayward tee shirt still only ran me 18 bucks, forcing me to simply leave the other 2 as a donation like some sort of big-city New York Asshole, though the girl on volunteer duty made life a lot easier by being too punk to acknowledge my presence, so instead of having to take the change and then give it back, I just left a twenty on the table in front of her and then split. Also, my mom was with me. It was weird. Anyway, back home now in BROOKLYN, and it turns out that Andrew Jackson Jihad is Arizona anti-folk. My jury’s still out on what I think of them, but you might as well decide for yourself:
