Julia Child was never a "professional chef" in that she never worked for a restaurant before she started teaching classes in Paris and working on her first cookbook. She still was hell of awesome.

True, now that you mention it...

I don't know.  I love Alton a whole lot and he has influenced my cooking more than anybody other than my mother and grandmother, but he's never been a professional chef.  Didn't he go to cooking school just so he could make Good Eats? 

I think so. I'm pretty sure he worked in TV before and decided to make a fun cooking show which required attending cooking school.

Well, I assume that nearly all professional/celebrity chefs have attended cooking school at some point. That shouldn't be held against him. He obviously learned a ton and has put his education to excellent use.

That is it precisely.  He explained it on the Good Eats anniversary special.  Nobody had a cooking show like he wanted to see, so he went to culinary school precisely so he could make that show.  Sounds crazy, but obviously it worked out.

I think specifically the dude was a DP on music videos and commericals for the bulk of his career.

Which... makes perfect sense.

Yeppers!  But tack on the suffixes Husker Du, the Replacements, Soul Asylum, the Jayhawks, Built to Spill, Semisonic, and Flogging Molly Boiled in Lead, and you've got yourself a THING.

(Now TurboNinja's gonna de-can me for including the Jayhawks or something.  Bleah.)

Am I mising something? I thought that Built to Spill was from Idaho, and Flogging Molly was from L.A.

Shit, I meant Boiled in Lead, not Flogging Molly.  Sorry about that!  (They were both in my rotation yesterday and I got confuzzled.)  You're right about Built to Spill; they play here a ton, and I got bad intel.  Thanks!  Good to know the truth.

Oh!  Oh!  And the Hold Steady started here too, as Lifter Puller.  (Not a big fan, so that's easily forgotten.)

I will de-can you in my mind for adding Soul Asylum into the same positive sentence as Husker Du. For shame!

I am here right now and am absolutely hating it, but OKC/ Norman has three of the best bands of the last 15 years.  Flaming Lips, Starlight Mints, Evangelicals.  There may not be a ton, but all of the bands who have any type of national appeal in like the indie scene or whatever are amazing.  Also, check out Student Film, pretty darn good.

It is all like throw everything at you psych pop.  Weird it comes from where it does, but so good.

I think I officially can't handle Robert Plant ever again thanks to this damn thing.

That was excellent, thanks.
