missing something? how do people who have an obvious appreciation of great

the bright eyes phenomenon because i ain't getting it and i think i kinda
want to or it wouldn't bug me so much that i don't. just out of curiosity,
how old are you bright eyes fans? don't take this the wrong way, but i'm
wondering if they appeal to a younger audience and if perhaps they're more
about adolescent suffering. sadly, i'm more of an adult sufferer. >>
I kinda like some Bright Eyes stuff, but am not zoned about it. A bunch of
friends from the GbV listserv went to that Austin show you spoke of,
primarily to see Grandaddy and worship at said feet. The consensus of most
of those in the Grandaddy gang was "Bright Eyes was goat-bleating tedium."
Now remember, folks, I didn't say that, the Grandaddy fans did....
