Don't worry that we suck! Party like it's 1994!

Honestly, that's the only reason I can think of that LIVE was invited to PNC Park for this concert today. Are they they the Clarks? Are they the Poverty Neck Hillbillies? Are they Donnie Iris? Are they a currently popular and relevant band? No, no, no, and no. So how else could the Pirates have picked them for the concert today? Especially after the Me First and the Gimme Gimmes fiasco last year? The only reason can possibly be that the Pirate marketing department is trying to take us back to 1994 when Throwing Copper was released and the Pirates were only in year 2 of the rebuilding process.

Also- Shane Youman takes the mound for us and Chris Capuano makes his return from the DL for the Brewers. This one kicks off at 4:05 and it is on TV if you are lucky and don't have a real job like me. I'll probably hang around in the comments to talk about it if it stays interesting.
