I like him so much that every Dischord Records record I've got (except for 13 Songs) I bought directly from their website.

And what's even cooler about it is that every record was packaged together with a hand note by Amy Farina thanking for buying it. I wouldn't trade that for a meeting and a photo with Billy Corgan or Mark Lanegan (just to cite two alternative rock stars I like)
