Jenny Lewis kinda sucks now.
I know it’s apostate and sure all the Rilo Kiley albums up to and including More Adventurous (!) were incredible. I do more all of em , stuff like Execution Of All Things is just unbeatable even today.
But the last one barked, the two solos snoozed (you know yopu’ve got a problem when the best song is a Travelling Wilbury’s cover), and fuck Costello. The song was OK but cmon…
Rice has two albums and I’ve heard one and loved it but more important he blew his girlfriend off stage at Irving, what FIVE YEARS AGO!!!
So when I heard that a new band called Johnny and Jenny were opening for Pavement this September, I can’t predict who is doing who a favor but I think both will be better for the experience.
