We were so lucky to have Liz Riley Tollefson(Imaginary Liz) of Three Imaginary Girls (www.threeimaginarygirls.com) come by. She mesmerized us with story after story about covering Seattle’s rock scene and gave deep advice to Grant on his dating life.
A little more from the website:
Three Imaginary Girls is a Seattle-based website that showcases the great music of the Northwest to music lovers worldwide. The site launched in June 2002 to document the show-going escapades of three music fans with boundless enthusiasm for the burgeoning music scene around them.
Since that time, the site has grown to include reviews of albums, live music, film, interviews and more, in Seattle and beyond. The site thrives on constantly discovering and nurturing great new bands and sharing them with the rest of the {imaginary} world.
Three Imaginary Girls have also booked music showcases, contributed to other music publications (including the KEXP blog, Seattle Sound Magazine, Tablet Magazine, and Music for America), and the imaginary editorial staff have made countless guest radio appearances on KEXP 90.3fm and KUOW 94.9fm and have been featured in the pages of The Stranger and the Seattle Weekly.
Three Imaginary Girls were voted “MVP of Seattle Music 2004” by readers of the Seattle Weekly, and were listed in Seattle Magazine’s 2004 Most Influential People issue as well as Seattle Sound’s 2006 Most Influential in Seattle Music issue. One of our founders was crowned a Nerd of Note by Seattle Magazine and we were even mentioned on ESPN and in the pages of Jane magazine and Paste Magazine.

Corrections
Near the 68th minute, we falsely associate Dave Meinert With Neumos. He is not associated with Neumos. He is, however, associated with the 5 points cafe, and formerly associated with the Lost Lake Cafe and the Comet Tavern.
