Pretty good for a Yankee hater.

Does Sal Paradise count? If not, the Phil Lynott name check from Most People are DJ's.

Gotta go with Rick Danko and Robbie Robertson.
My 2 year old son's name is Levon. Kinda named after Levon Helm (we liked the name and love The Band).
Hence the avatar.
But....
His favorite song to dance to is The Swish. He keeps wanting me to play it over and over. I swear that's a complete coincidence, but I do play THS at home A LOT.

I second Ellen Foley. She makes me feel pretty hopeful. And an honourable mention goes to Rocco Siffredi just because I really like Craig's comment on about that line in this interview.

I love it when Craig tells the story about St. Barbara before "Don't let me explode."

Morris Day and the Time, indirectly, as the band played "Ice Cream Castles." There aren't enough Morris Day references in the world. That shit is the Madnotes!

There aren't enough Morris Day references in the world. i dont know if you dig atmosphere, but slug + ant + murs = felt; and on felt volume 2 there is a song called morris day, not the best song on the album, but hey, there's another reference for you. Loooooves me some Atmosphere and Rhymesayers in general--you can take the girl outta Minnesota, but you can't take the Minnesota music outta the girl. I had "Morris Day" on my summer driving mix this year, even though I only got to listen to it twice.

Girl I've seen your friend, she looks nothing like Jada Pinkett. I think you got something in those cigarettes.

I fell in love with THS with this lyric, so obscure, random, yet brilliant

"Raise a toast to St. Joe Strummer I think he might’ve been our only decent teacher ".
Alot of Craig's references to American celebrities have had me googling to find out who the hell they are.

the pogues! granted they never say the pogues. "when the band stopped playing we howled out for more." This is mine, too. It's the perfect time of year for Fairytale of New York! 'Song number three on John's new CD' did make my day the first time I heard it. Honestly, I'm a big fan of any line that requires me to know something else. References make me happy.
