"They played their songs, and it was awesome"

Sigh. Normally, any kind of news involving 1) Teengenerate re-uniting and 2) playing shows in the US would also involve joyful spasms and shudders and emanations on the part of yours truly. Such news arrived earlier this summer but with a cruel twist: there were to be only two shows, both in NYC, both during a time when I wouldn't be able to make it out.

So it looks like I'll have to be content with my old records, my memories of the time I saw 'em in Green Bay (Novemeber 1995, still the best show I've ever seen or will ever likely see), and this report, from which the headline is taken. Come back to the midwest!
