Pylon - Stop It

AAAGH! No way!

Man, that sucks. Pylon is still on WEEKLY rotation on my stereo. :( He couldn't have been more than in his early 50s. Damn.

BP are you around my age? I'm 40. I wonder if we crossed paths before I left Atlanta.

I'm 44, so it's entirely possible.

Ten bucks Michael Stipe is sitting somewhere silently over this as well. REM ADORES Pylon.

*gets in time machine with BP & travels back to the 40 watt, 1981 to spill some 50 cent draughts for our homies*

Wow, BP and I are the same age, but only time I was in Atlanta was a layover on a rescheduled flight. Wasn't even supposed to go there.
