Semisonic USED to be part of a group from Minneapolis called "Trip Shakespeare" which had great original songs of funny and surreal content. I happen to think that Dan Wilson and John Munson (who are now in Semisonic) are still extremely talented musicians and great guys. Closing Time may not be the best song (yes it's repetitive drudge), but I applaud them getting as far as they have...they've sweated for over 15 years and have finally broke thru. Let's see how they handle it. Victorria Johnson Chris Ault wrote: > Semisonic are another overplayed, commercialized, > in-it-for-the-Benjamins > radio corporate rock band.
