WHAT MADE MILWAUKEE FAMOUS - Trying To Never Catch Up

| CokeMachineGlow | We all have day jobs here at the Glow. [Ed.: Or night shifts.] Mine is at the UCLA Daily Bruin, where I’m Arts & Entertainment editor. The level of insightful commentary and overall writing capability is a sight less than it is here at CMG (goes without saying, obviously) but we’re all a bunch of indie geeks, so who better to listen to this record a few times with me?

They may not be happy, but the rut they're in suits them just fine and they'll go on listening to Bachman-Turner Overdrive and Grand Funk Railroad forever, because real rock 'n roll will never die and that's the only truth they've got to cling to.

| | Static Multimedia | What made Milwaukee famous? Lets take a second to discuss this because I am pretty sure it wasn’t this Austin-based band. In fact, if one were to proclaim Milwaukee a famous city, beer would have to be the culprit. Thing is, I’m not so sure folks are stampeding to get to Milwaukee. I don’t think people from other parts of the world say “Oh boy! I can’t wait to see Milwaukee!” So do the What Made Milwaukee Famous really just want to name their band Beer? Indeed. Actually, that was their name for a while; I suppose they collectively decided that WMMF simply sounded better.
