DOUBLE POST DAY!!
I was perusing some entries at The Rawking Refuses to Stop (yeah, I'm sending you to the tag I was looking under), and Dave's entry about Hayden brought back the MOMENT I BECAME AN INDIE MUSIC FAN.

February, 2002.  I was perusing a poster store on South Street in Philly with some girls I would soon find out hated my guts.  Puffy Colombia Sports Co. coat on, flipping through the posters and thinking, "If I hang this on my wall, I'm really trying too hard."  (Later, I'd really try too hard with my Paul Klee and art purchased from around the corner.)  A soft, sort of rocking, song came on.  And then another.  Fronted by a gruff voice.  I asked the clerk what it was.  In his black t-shirt and too-skinny jeans with a bad haircut (already, folks), he responded, "Hayden's 'The Closer I Get',"

I found it at half.com for 4 bucks and my world changed.

Natch!
