Best of: The Weakerthans

Tomorrow night, I'm going to see The Weakerthans for the fourth time. The Weakerthans are a band that first brought me into the realm of independent music. I bought Left & Leaving the first time I saw them live: way way way back in 2000 at the Roboto Project. A few months later, my high school boyfriend gave me a copy of Fallow for Christmas (he gave it to me already opened, because he'd wanted to listen to it too - he told me my favorite song off it would be "None of the Above" and it still is). I love this band. In my mind, this is one group that will do no wrong.

Here's an hour's worth of Weakerthan's goodness. Otherwise known as my favorites.
