Nervous children making millions: you owe it all to them
Power trios with big-ass deals: you opened for it then
I can see, I can see, I can see it all with my one good eye
For a start take two grant harts and call me when you die—-“Grant Hart,” The Posies

Grant Hart, the drummer, co-writer, and co-founder of Hüsker Dü, writes some of the finest pop songs you’ve probably never heard. Where Hüsker’s sound was a melodic slap of harsh sonics, Hart’s solo work concentrates more on catchy pop hooks and wordplay. Armed with just his electric guitar, he ran through songs like “Green Eyes,” “You’re a Victim,” “The Main,” and others at his Crooked Beat in-store last night. Hart may look like the devil on his right shoulder beat up the angel on his left a few times over the years, but when he opened his mouth to sing his vulnerable and beautiful songs, it was obvious that the angel should never, ever be counted out.
