thanks to e-bay i have the Matter of Degrees ST!
from a grant hart interview about a song on the st, his band Nova Mob did the song...
Right! How about "Evergreen Memorial Drive." I think a lot of people probably take their own experiences and superimpose them on that song.]
Grant answers:
Yeah, well. As stated in the song. There's a less-direct route to Duluth which is the Great Lakes port in Minnesota. That's kind of oxymoronic: "Great Lakes Port." It's a lake, it's not a sea. But there was a route on which a friend of mine's family had a cabin. And it would be kind of like: "Go to the cabin along this route and continue on to Duluth if you were heading to Duluth. But it's definitely the more scenic route to Duluth. And there's the names of a few towns in there that are thrown in. There's a Danish town called Askov which the street signs and everything are still in Dansk. And maybe they keep it up for their own traditions but for years people have said there are covens of witches in Askov.
Also, these people's cabin was in a little town called Duquet and farther up the road there's a town called Nickerson and everyone from Duquet was like: "Oh. Don't go to Nickerson. They'll just overcharge you if they know you're from Duquet. Go south to Branson if you need to buy anything because if you go up to Nickerson you'll just get ripped off," and it probably had some basis in reality but I liked the way that Nickerson worked with "son-of-a-bitches." That's how it goes: "Askov has northern witches, Nickerson has son-of-a-bitches." So in that's the insider version of it which is. . . meaningless. . . whatever other people are putting into it is probably more valid to more people than the actual intent, or the original intent.
