Undercover Cover Band Blues
Dryw Keltz, who played bass for The Fading Captains, wrote a piece for the San Diego Reader regarding his experience playing in a Guided by Voices cover band. Keltz wrote that people responded positively to the music:

"I really like your songs." We'd tell them, "Well, they're not our songs. They're songs by a band we really like called Guided By Voices. Didn't you hear us announce that during the set?" And then they'd say something like, "Divided By Choices?"

In a society that increasingly values swiftness, celebrity, and the lowest common denominator (i.e. MP3s versus records, propane versus charcoal, etc.), it's become fashionable to neglect those things that don't trigger our front-impact airbags.
