glenn mcdonald's last column, at least for now, is up. The end begins like this:

I started writing music reviews because I realized that my record collection had gotten ahead of my understanding of it. Twelve years, five hundred weeks of this column, thousands of reviews and tens of thousands of listening and writing hours later, I think there is a sense in which I have finally caught up.

that's a really poignent and beautiful little paragraph.

guess it's time for someone to pick up the slack. no one writes about indie-rock in their blogs anymore.

He had a knack. Has, I guess.

Indie rock is so last century.

I never read his stuff, but I grok his reasons for writing.
