Matters of Local Taste

Here’s an interesting follow-up to what Sarah and I mentioned in the Picked 2 Click interview; in today’s STrib, Chris Riemenschneider writes up and interviews Motion City Soundtrack, who he hails as “today’s biggest local rock band”.  Bold as it is, it’s unfortunately a true statement. Even though MCS play the short form pop you can hear on KDWB, I don’t know right off the top of my head how many other Twin Cities musicians that have a video make it onto TRL. So, with their MTV exposure, has the band gotten any love from the locals? In last year’s P2C, only Krystal Schwegel mentioned Motion City Soundtrack as a band to click.
