*cough*Excuse me. Simels is right--the Highline Ballroom is a fabulous and refreshingly intimate venue in which to see your favorite band. In this instance, my favorite band, Fountains of Wayne.
In this incredibly sophisticated and perfectly exposed photograph, Chris Collingwood jams while Adam Schlesinger keeps the beat.
Check out Powerpop for a more in-depth review of the show, along with a review of the terrific opening act, April Smith and The Great Picture Show.
I mean, I'm not forcing you to. You do what you want. Who the hell am I to tell you what to do?
It was nice meeting you and NYMary ... I was the guy in the red shirt, and my wife and I were yapping with you two.
I'll go back to whistling "Maureen" again now. :)

I saw them about six years ago at the House of Blues in Anaheim. Small venue, great show, great band.
