Farm Aid is on October 4, less than two weeks away! Over at the Blender, Kevin Johnson has details about more lineup additions for the show. Notable names include Ernie Isley, Ryan Bingham and Billy Joe Shaver. And over at Gut Check, Ian notes that Willie Nelson is a fan of Pappy's Smokehouse -- largely because of the shirt they're selling to benefit Farm Aid. Cool!
You just had to ask, didn't you? You couldn't just leave well enough alone. And now this. Here's your "real St. Louis band." I hope you're happy...

They need to add a real St. Louis area band like the Bottle Rockets.
Bottle Rockets...Bottle Rockets...Bottle Rockets...
Of course there's that line about Mellencamp in "Indianapolis", "I'll puke if that jukebox plays John Cougar one more time". I wonder if he holds a grudge, or if he's ever heard it.
