When I was 14, Tim Kasher told me he loved me at a dirty bar in Atlanta. I named my car after him when I turned 16.
What is there to say about Mr. Kasher that hasn’t already been said? Nothing.
The sweatiest moment of my life occurred in front of the stage at Sonar the first time I saw Cursive live. Most of the sweat was not mine, nevertheless, it was awesome.
Found out about Cursive a couple of years ago on the way home from Music Go Round with a friend. He had The Ugly Organ playing in the car and I was just listening to the album for the first time having known nothing about the band. All of the sounds were crazy and weirdly organized. I’ll never forget that first time I heard the record because it was such a distinct sound and I remember just hearing all of the instruments crashing into each other and saying…man this is so sick!! Still one of my favorite albums along with the others now.
