OK, seeing how it’s Friday and the fabled first day of the State Fair of Texas, I thought this lil’ track from the Old 97’s was in order – recorded live in 2010 for WNYC’s Soundcheck.  Happy weekend, y’all!

The New York City group Soul Coughing will pass through Dallas with a show at the Longhorn Ballroom on April 18. 🔗 Head to the link in bio for five songs we hope make the setlist. 📸 Brigitte Lancombe
