And, since he saw Neko Case's name on the cover no doubt in advance of her show at the Beacon Theater Monday, he flipped right to that page. It was there he saw an error so egregious about Ms. Case by writer Sophie Harris we had to get into the newsroom and tap off a correction. Ms. Harris claims that the New Pornographers, Case's side project while not on tour herself which she did long before there were New Pornographers to speak of, was the "Band that launched Case".
Dear lord where to begin. We'll just be polite and tell you kids to do your own research on this and tell you she's toured with several groupings including the one she's with now, fantastic one she's touring with now, and that she was an item long before she cut any tape with the New Pornographers.
Johnny can barely run THIS dump let alone correct and edit Time Out New York.....
I know how you feel, Johnny. I was reading an interview with my favorite band, Old 97's, in No Depression and the twit who wrote the piece spelled a member's name incorrectly not just once, but throughout the whole article. Devoted fans know these things and you gotta do your homework.

Let's keep fighting the good fight and holding their feet to the fire!
Yeah, the writer seemed nice enough so I don't wanna go overboard but let's get all the facts straight...
