NYC's New "It" Girl

Pavement.

I have always been waiting for these days to come, when Pavement would return, and us minions would scoff at the acknowledgment that they're the coolest band. Finally, something everyone could agree upon in music!

Years have passed wherein I would peruse the bar Mark Ibold works at, hit him up about music, and inevitably ask, "So, when's it happening?" with a wry smile. My buddy Andy caught wind last year from Malkmus himself that it was certainly going to happen. Now here it is.

My friend asked me "Since when did everyone give a shit about Pavement?"

To which I replied, "After they died, of course..."

Whatever though, they're the most ridiculous band, and it's certainly something to look forward to, even if it is over a year away...
