Hm... I wasn't under the impression that anyone was doggin' hearing good 
music in unexpected places.  It's just very unexpected, hence the comments.
I for one, think Sonic Youth sucks so I've never heard of 'dirty' and I 
thought it was great when Cut Your Hair was on the radio.

The fact that indie music gets heard in public places isn't all that bad, is 
it?  I mean, I was kind of shocked when I heard stereolab in the volvo 
commercial, but it's about time they got paid for something.  and their 
music has the kind of post-modern/neo-classical vibe that I get whenever i 
see a volvo....

Just because an indie band is played somewhere commercial, it doesn't mean 
the music's changed or will change, does it?  I mean, how many people on 
this list would know about indie music if it weren't for pavement's 'cut yr 
hair' or sonic youth's 'dirty' or nirvana, or 120 minutes?  A lot of us have 
college radio to rely on, and/or the internet, but we can't live in an indie 
vacuum can we?
