There is something smelly about Robyn Hitchcock, very Sgt. Peppery.  It’s grand, absolutely grand, and it’s coming to the Varsity Theater April 19 straight from the aromatic source, London!  Where else?  (Can anyone actually tell me if London smells good?)  Here’s a real tidbit though.  Guess who will be accompanying Mr. Hitchcock to Minneapolis and backing his performance?  None other than Mr. Buck, as in Peter Buck (from REM), one of Minneapolis’ very own adopted sons.  The American tour is not particularly extensive, and I can’t help but think Peter had something to do with Minneapolis making the cut.  Regardless, thanks Peter, for everything ever.

You didn’t think I’d leave you without a tune did you?
