I have seen Husker Du, Sugar & Bob himself over 20 times (I’m an old man ) but you have no fucking idea how madly envious I am of you. Lovely bit of writing, thank you xx

Im not much of a an of yours Margaret. But what you say of Bob Mould and Dave Grohl is exactly how I feel! Your passion of their music and what they have contributed to alternative music was spoken truely from the heart. I feel the same way! Here we have something in common!

Bought my first Bob record(remember those?) around 86 or 87 and I think it was called Land Speed (is that right) and it was virtually unlistenable, just painful. Stubbornly, I bought the next album and the next and I was falling in love with Bob’s songwriting and guitar thrashing ( I think they call it shredding these days). So the soundtrack of my life is Bob. I have every bit of his music, and it fits all my moods. Met him once, saw him live once, read his incredible book, and let me say that I feel this is an upstanding, straightforward speaking man. This tribute means a lot to all of us, I know, and I can’t wait for it! Love you, Bob, wish I’d been born a man!!!

What a great experience!! I’ve seen Bob several times, but only met with him briefly twice. I totally envy you.

What Ms. Cho failed to mention is how her beautiful, strong singing enhanced what was already a very memorable evening. I was in the audience and so happy to have been witness to such talent and communal happiness.

Rock on, Ms. Cho.

Right on! I’ve seen Bob live 4 or 5 times, and came late to Husker Du, really only hearing them when Warehouse came out…that makes it about 25 years for me. It’s a shame Bob has not been more popular with the general, but truly great artists seldom are. The emotions you expressed toward the music is precisely how I feel…love it!

I felt your emotion throughout the post and had chills and then at the end when he gave you a kiss, it brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful! How could anyone not love Bob Mould? I’m going to go change my Hold Steady Stay Positive cd currently playing and listen to Bob Mould Workbook and let my kids look at me like I’m nuts while I sing See a Little Light at the top of my lungs. Thank you for sharing your experience..

I feel the same way about Ryan Adams. I leave his shows feeling heartbroken that he isn’t as in love with me as I am with him. Didn’t we just experience the same thing together, the same emotional earthquake? How do I mean nothing to him and he so much to me?! That’s how I know a show I see is good, if I leave heartbroken. Thanks Ms. Cho. Love you too.
