Note from a friend

Dr. X posts this from George Bush Airport:

"I've been through El Paso a few times now. If you're interested in America at all, it's worth a visit, from its desolate-but-beautiful downtown, to its underground music scene, to the manic energy (and occasional live round) that comes over from Mexico.

"I've thought of one particular place, The Percolator, as my little secret, a tiny island of hip and good in a sea of clueless and mediocre.

"Apparently Beck likes the place, too. He played an unannounced show there in September, lovingly detailed here."
