I don’t know why I was surprised,but for some reason I’m always a little surprised to find out that someone based overseas is familiar with, or even passionate about, one of our Antipodean talents. When I was in Oakland last month, I found out that Locus assistant editor Liza has a thing for an old Do Re Mi song and when I was looking at Locus Online editor Mark Kelly’s blog yesterday I found out he was a big Neil Finn fan. He was sufficiently enthusiastic about Finn’s last solo effort, which I actually had forgotten that I’d bought, that I threw it in the cd player last night and started getting into it. It’s a small world.

And with that in mind, Liza is you read this and you went to Piedmont High, then someone is looking for you.
