Thanks. Next time I need to convince my kid to RVA, I'll tell her they play weird Al at all the stores.

TIL
Peaches & Herb are an American vocalist duo. Herb Fame (born October 1, 1942) has remained a constant as "Herb" since the duo was created in 1966;
seven different women have filled the role of "Peaches", most notably Francine "Peaches" Hurd Barker (April 28, 1947 – August 13, 2005), the original "Peaches" who lent her nickname to the duo, and Linda Greene, the third "Peaches" who appeared on the duo's biggest hits "Shake Your Groove Thing" (1978) and "Reunited" (1979).

Do you think Herb will ever employ this Peaches?

Whole Foods:
The Undertones-Teenage Kicks
Spoon- Do You
Jenny Lewis- Breakin Up
Giant:
Feist-one of her songs they always play
Thomas Dolby- She Blinded Me With Science*
*It's been 33+ years, but I can finally listen to this song again. My hunchback freshman college roommate played the Thomas Dolby album all the freaking time, and there's only so much you can take of that in a lifetime.
**Note to middle aged white guy who was trying to dance to this song while pushing his cart…you wife was not amused, and neither was I.

I live in the country. And I mean the country. I have noticed something odd . . . none, and I mean none, of the stores (Food Lion / Martins / Walmart / Target / Aldi ) around here, do not play any type of music at all, ever. But they do now have robots that wander up and down the aisles looking for spills, or things on shelves that don't belong there.
People here, hate those robots, and believe they are all out to take people's jobs. I just want to know, if they are good in bed.
