MM Meets D2D

Just a heads up that I'll be reading a version of the "Battle of the Bands" blog post tomorrow, Friday, on NPR's Day to Day.

Heard Carries' bit on the upcoming conventions, and the bands associated with each.
Here's the song that should now be played as the theme song for our country/economy, called 'Living in the IOUSA'.
I wrote this several years ago, and revised and recorded it with my band, The Moot Points.

Completely unrelated to your posts, but out of curiosity, do you ever get tired of being referred to as Carrie Brownstein "of Sleater-Kinney?" I mean, I love your music and all, but now that the band is no more, would you rather start being referenced in some other way?

yes, "...of Thunderant."

or "...of general awesomeness."

would be my suggestions.
