The always personable and vivacious Meat Purveyors were kind enough to do a phone interview with us this evening -- had a chance to chat with Bill and Cherilyn who were calling from the house of Anders of the Ex-Husbands in Nashville.  They’re playing with The Old 97s on Sunday, April 19 in Detroit and Cherilyn promised to prostrate herself nude in front of the stage when they were playing.  Boy, did the phone lines light up when we gave away tickets after that!
