Still any good? I last saw em at CBGB in '91 and they kicked ass, and I see they're playing the 9:30 Club in DC Friday (in case I don't land a nice man my first night in town).

I imagine not a lot has changed; the last time I saw them was about '95.

I remember when Mary left school to join the band; she was kind of a hero for that.

When I saw them a few years ago it was a great show. They draw enough in Austin to take up a 5 night residence at the Continental Club once a year, for whatever it's worth.

I saw them in '96 or '97, I believe... but not since. As mentioned above, though, I imagine not a lot has changed.

And maybe you'll get a chicken snack.

I think all the above have nailed it. Last time I saw them was in Cleveland in oh 1994 or so at the Euclid Tavern. Great fun and I can't see any reason why that wouldn't still be the case today. Hell I was even debating going to that show at the 9:30 myself, but other plans have cropped up.

Wow, I don't remember fried chicken 14 years ago. If there are tix at the door maybe I'll go.

eighteen years pass...

Saw them last night and hot damn, for a band that has been going 30+ years they still bring incredible energy. Rick Miller took some lengthy solos that approached Yo La Tengo levels of guitar skronk.
