I?m With the Band

As we started dating, I naturally inquired about his musical past. He had been the lead singer of the Dismemberment Plan, but they had broken up in 2003 and hadn?t played a show together since 2007. He?d put out some albums as a solo artist and then decided to leave the industry and go into computer programming full time. He worked at the Washington Post and then the Huffington Post, where I met him. I asked him about his albums, and he told me that I should just listen to the one he considered the best, Emergency & I. When I asked about the others, he said he didn?t have any copies, and that I would have to buy them on iTunes. So I downloaded and listened. I enjoyed them, although I didn?t memorize any lyrics or listen to them on repeat. But that chapter of his biography didn?t play much part in our lovely blossoming romance. At the time, Travis got his singing joy largely from an Episcopal church choir. I would attend the monthly services to support him, and we?d go to brunch afterward.
