The inimitable Marnie Stern – she of the golden locks, furious fret board tapping, and iPod band – is, according to Pitchfork, for auction on eBay.
Her record label, Kill Rock Stars, is auctioning off a guitar lesson with Ms. Stern, presumably in her upper east side apartment where you can meet her dog! Learn how to tap and shred like the Sternster, but you’ll likely NOT learn how to title an album This Is It and I Am It and You Are It and So Is That and He Is It and She Is It and It Is It and That Is That (is that from Marcel Duchamp as well?) or learn how to write supersmart song titles like “The Crippled Jazzer”, “Put All Your Eggs In One Basket and Then Watch That Basket!”, “Plato’s Fucked-Up Cave,” and my new fave, “Roads? Where We’re Going We Don’t Need Roads.”
Really, and it’s a credit to how nice Stern is, she’s an original.
