| While I didn't cry when I found out Soul Coughing broke up I wanted to. And I would have had my father not raised such a manly, manly man. Instead of boring you with the "why they're good", and the "why I like them" I'm going to give some anecdotal evidence of their imperial goodness. It was August 19th 2001 and I was in Salt Lake City. I was staying in a Best Western near the airport on the government's dime. Free vacation, right? No, I'm preparing to be flown out to Fort Benning Georgia where I will be initiated into the U.S. Army. At five A.M. I am awoken from my sleep by a telephone call. I am told that I need to be on a bus headed for the Army MEPS station by six where I will be inprocessed as an employee of the government. I get onto the bus with time to spare. The driver starts the bus up and turns on the radio and guess what's playing... Yes, Soul Coughing's "Bus to Beelzebub". I love irony, but not when it features me. Anyway, it was almost as if God was using Soul Coughing to inform me that I f-ed up. So, seeing as I like Soul Coughing and seeing as God likes Soul Coughing maybe you should do some soul searching to see if you like Soul Coughing as well. |
