Milwaukee Talks: Gordon Gano, 2009
If, in 2009, if you need me to tell you who Gordon Gano is, you need to retake Milwaukee 101 before advancing. While the Femmes are likely permanently kaput due to an ongoing lawsuit, Gano is collaborating with The Ryans and the first result of that is "Under the Sun," a sassy, smart punk / pop record that is the best thing he's done in years.

Will Femmes get a call from Rock 'n' Roll Hall?
The music seems as fresh and vibrant as the day it was released, but the Violent Femmes are already eligible for nomination to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum beginning next year. Are the boys from Milwaukee worthy?
