I did not know Erik Petersen, nor his band Mischief Brew, until I randomly saw him play in Hoboken, New Jersey on March 6, 2008. To say the least, it was an interesting show with Nanuchka.

I spent the next few days desperately trying to find this album for download. eMusic didn’t have it, plus I’d use my meager monies on the two Mischief Brew albums. Well, I finally found it two days later for cheap and have been happily listening to it since. It’s been especially weird listening to this album while visiting my hometown, which has only recently fallen to corporatism.
