If anything the hamster was a complete misdirection for most of us I'd say.

A folk punk band? Yet you have an issue with Son Volt. I think we all have different, yet wonderful ideas of Alternative and Indie music

Indeed.....in my sick mind, an "indie" band is one that appears on an independant label....not just becaust they have dyed black hair and loud guitars...:)

That was a good puzzle..I knew he was Canadian but never thought of his birthplace..You did say the band name was derived from his name or that's the way I read it so I was checking kings of leon -but no, named after one their grandfathers...the boring b@stards:pac:
