To Kill a Mockingbird book cover t-shirt →
I’ve been waiting for them to add Mockingbird. A little disappointed that it’s a modern design and not a classic cover. Still getting it though.

"the saddest of all keys"
DULLI: It was my discovery of C# minor that truly liberated me, though. I've run that one into the ground.
GW: Where do you play it?
DULLI: Where do I play it?
MCCOLLUM: I don't know.
DULLI: Be easier to show you than tell you [Greg gets his rosewood Telecaster out of the case .]
MCCOLLUM: Maybe it's not even C# minor. You mean the "Purple Rain" chord?
DULLI: Yeah, that one. What if it isn't C# minor. I'm completely embarrassing myself in Guitar World. [Greg starts to play. ]
MCCOLLUM: Okay. At least that's a minor.
GW: Let it be noted for the record that the witness is barring at the fourth fret, root note on fifth string, and he's hammering the second string between the fourth and fifth fret for some C# minor weirdness.

Greg Dulli + Craig Wedren at the Double Door: Live... →
But as a showman and a conductor of a great night of live music, Dulli was unequaled in the ’90s with the Whigs, bringing the audience up and down, to New Orleans, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Kentucky and places in between, while inserting tributes to Prince, Professor Longhair, Marvin Gaye and Squirrel Bait in the set as he saw fit. And the Whigs had Rick McCollum.
