Cytocycle, I'd forgotten all about the Judy's... first saw them in about 1984, when they played at my high-school auditorium!
Jdoris, I too was going to mention Uncle Tupelo. Fortunately, I'm also a huge fan of Wilco / Son Volt / Loose Fur, and will be seeing Wilco in Austin this September, for about the jillionth time.
