This was probably because touring punk and indie bands didn't used to have any hits, but never mind that. The important thing is what they did with the encore instead: they played sloppy drunken covers of songs they'd loved as kids, songs that no right-minded indie rocker would ever admit to still liking unless they were drunk and/or some of their heroes suddenly played them and made them cool again. You know, songs by people like John Denver and Abba and Billy Joel. Me First and the Gimme Gimmes -- a semi-supergroup of punk luminaries -- play nothing but sloppy drunken encores of goofy old songs that we all like a lot more than we're willing to say. - Tim QuirkPop Punken720Wed, 9 Dec 2009 15:02:49 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.7635&rws=%2Fme-first-and-the-gimme-gimmes%2Fmusic-videos.rss Once upon a time, touring punk and indie bands didn't save their hits until the encore.
