Sometimes I’ll feel that way about art, but nothing causes it so profoundly as certain music. It’s almost paralyzing. Seriously. It is that very feeling that has put me in so much debt charging spontaneous trips to LA or Austin or Athens over the years to see certain bands. Now that we know there’s a term, who can I sue? And then I’ll be able to afford those Special Docs, which definitely cause me to suffer an outbreak of Stendahl’s Syndrome!!!

Try it!

Shoot me now.
