It’s worth the read and very much a stellar article. Shaun, the author, concludes:

 A bit late to the party on this one, and I think I know who to blame: They Might Be Giants, whose rockin’ tunes inspired me to pour an immeasureable volume of beer into my face last night. Their show at the Satellite Ballroom was, hands down, one of the funnest shows I’ve ever seen in Charlottesville.

Halfway through the show, a little birdie leaned over to me and said, “I’ve never seen so many nerds in one place.” So true! Here’s to nerd rock, and the purveyors and consumers thereof.

 I espied at least one other cVillain there. Who else went? What did you think?
