Look Out! Soul Is Back - Nation of Ulysses
I've been ignoring this place for other concerns. Anyway, let's continue on the magical mystery tour of my musical life. Even though I'm probably the only one who cares.

I was introduced to this band my college friend Rob. Rob was from VA and was weened on DC Hardcore and the bands on Dischord Records. Being from an area of the Midwest that was kind of shuttered from the indie label seen I hadn't heard of many of these bands. I liked them right away.

Being of little expendable means in college, I settled for borrowing friend's CD's and snippets of N.o.U on mix tapes(Remember mix tapes?) Until I came across "13 Point Progam to Destroy America" on a trip to Greenville, SC in 1997 to visit my future bride. Like a fiend I tore the cellophane wrapper off the disc and popped it into the CD player of her car upon leaving the store.

Nation of Ulysses still makes into in the queue for my car from time to time. I always recall Rob, Erick and that trip.
