Dearest miraminx,

[constance]

I got the article today! I loved it (and I think it's the most I've ever read about Big Star in one place ever), and you were splendid to send it to me, and! New album coming out this summer! I don't know whether to be excited or nervous, and so, predictably, I'm both.

Thank you, thank you!

Much love,

me

Oh good! (Man, that was slow mail delivery, though.) I'm so glad you enjoyed it and that it was legible. It was the most complete Big Star article I'd ever seen too, and then I got to the end and noticed that the author has an entire BOOK coming out on the band.

I'm sure I'll buy the new album, but yeah, I'm excited and nervous at the same time as well.

Also! Chris Stamey is touring! (Do you like Chris Stamey?) For the first time in at least ten years! It's a good month for power pop.

Also, now that you've read it, I can say that I really can't believe that you couldn't get heroin in Memphis in the 70s. All things considered, though, it's clearly a good thing that Alex Chilton didn't manage to get his hands on any.
