Reason #83742 why NYC is Awesome
Stereogum reviewer, man about town, the Village Indian runs into Rockstars, gets bearhugged. Lives to blog about it.
"“That’s Nick fucking Zinner,” I say to no one.I do the “should I say something?” walk-by. Having done a phone interview with him about three weeks ago I’m thinking, “okay, not entirely inappropriate to say hello.”
This I do. I mosey on over. And I thought I was skinny. Man. I offer my opening line before we're interrupted by this maniacally cackling, (relative) bear of a guy. Can’t see his face, just his chin-length hair. Dude hugs and lifts Nick. Looks like he's going to break him. I start my retreat, but then I hear him speak. Turning to the rest of us on the corner, thinking we're all with Nick (all were but me), the bear says, "Hey man!"
"What up Jack! White Stripes are awesome!""
