Mustard loves Pacing! They’ve had the pleasure of speaking with them a couple times over the years. :) How was the show?

Love your Cheekface shirt as well!

That's cool! It was great, it was Pacing AND Cheekface! The dream team! Her songwriting is so good, earnest, funny, and unique.

Heck yeah! Mustard was so excited when the tour got announced. They remember being on Twitter and Pacing talking about Cheekface. Pacing helped introduce Mustard to America's local band.

It really is! Mustard is looking forward to her new album this year.

Love this essay and seeing the plethora of burned CDs. Reminds me of my my CD booklets!

Mustard thanks you! They wish they had more burned CDs. Burning CDs was one of their favorite things to do.

Loving these, Mustard! The CD Booklet is filling me with all sorts of nostalgia. Bad As Me was also my introduction to Waits, and Rain Dogs was the first album that I bought of his too. Always have him in my rotation, one of my all time favourites.

I got into Gogol Bordello with a later album, I think it was Trans-Continental Hustle? I saw them live once and the energy was insane. Great band. And Operation Ivy is just a stone cold classic. Can't wait to see more!

Mustard thanks you! This has been a lot of fun to put together. They have one final part they need to work on this week. Waits is incredible. Need to start listening to them again more consistently.

Heck yeah! Mustard has seen some Gogol Bordello live show videos and it blows them away.

They are tempted to do a quick series on CDs they know they owned but have been lost.

Mustard needs to listen to Waits again. It has been awhile.
