Flip Your Wig was the first Husker album I owned, and to me it wasn't the best introduction, but now being the huge fan I am, I appreciate most of it, but the production is pretty bad to me, which is probably what held me back from it in the first place.
I've seen Grant play in some pretty interesting places...he played my hometown in the mpls suburbs at a Knights Of Columbus hall with a ska band and a few local bands...that was trippy. He gave someone I know a cookie laced with acid or something. I requested Diane and he said it wouldn't work by himself...I wish I knew the bassline at the time because I may have been able to get up there and do it with him.
Saw him play at Garage D'or (Terry Katzman's store, he used to be Husker's soundman and helped run Reflex) to about 20 people just taking requests...I called out She's A Woman and he played it.
And the time at Taste Of Minnesota when he was playing during The Knack's set so most attention was going to The Knack...that was sad.
