True or false: In order to really like music, you still have to buy the physical product. Are the CD hangers-on, vinyl collectors, and cassette fetishists the last people in love with music? Can people who have gone purely digital still care? According to this precious Civic commercial, it’s a small-scale Ra Ra Riot gig. I’m all for including fledgling bands in commercials that get major airtime in NFL game breaks (as this one did).

Much of my time was on the road, listening to the Little Steven’s Underground Garage station on XM. One of the last tracks we heard was Chuck Berry’s "No Money Down.” Not sure I’d heard it before. Or if [...] Just kidding. I’ll be in Baltimore through Tuesday. It’s my second time. And I’ll mostly be in the touristy Harbor portion attending a healthcare lawyers’ conference.
