Todd is an American treasure. He exemplefies the characteristics of many archetypes of human consciousness, perfectly imperfectly.

My Great Aunt Virgie died in 1999. Her son Kenneth owned the Backbone Tavern. She tended bar in his tavern. She was a gem, I loved her. She was very outspoken and a could be a real sweetheart.

Todd Snider Rules!!

[@MattC2221]

Last time I saw Todd he told this story and then like 30 minutes later he's telling another story about his girlfriend demanding him pawn his guitar and get a real job. And he goes "Snider... You can be out of here in 15 minutes." Such a great tie-in of 2 stories. The place died laughing.
