Seriously, check them out at a club gig. You will be plesantly surprised and eagerly anticipating the next show. And they usually play Sometime to Return. Do we have any predictions for the Rock the Garden lineup?

That set list from First Ave over the holidays looks pretty good....although I don't know what they have against "Sometime To Return". I will have to check them out at the Zoo this summer and see what they've got to offer....

Of course you'd already know this if you have been to a Soul Asylum show in the last 5 years. It sounds like you saw them after "Candy From a Stranger" was released, they played one pre GDU song and you've held a grudge ever since. Of course I could be wrong. I too have been very happy seeing Soul Asylum a number of times in the past 4 years. Maybe The Jayhawks should reunite and tour the Twin Cites with Soul Asylum.....i would be there in a second.

And theier bass player also plays with Guns n'Roses and used to be in the Replacements! TRUE! Anyway, this is about the Jayhawks. That will be cool. I saw Louris & Olson at treehouse in store recently and it was fun. Basillica Block Party can be cool with the right band. The Suburbs were great there.

If so I will give them another try....they've ignored the existence of their Twin Tone days for way too long.

I've enjoyed the hell out of Soul Asylum's gigs these past few years. I highly doubt it, but I’d be fine with that. I’ve enjoyed the hell out of Soul Asylum’s gigs these past few years.
