Adam Duritz and Rob Thomas Shopping and Discussing Lou Reed
A/N Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20 and Adam Duritz of counting crows

"Say, Adam?" Rob asked quietly
"What's that?" asked Adam, "I can't quite hear you what with all the noise in this delightful mall."
"Oh I was just wondering if you thought this top matches my complexion."
"Well, maybe you should go with the dark blue... It's not so much that the puce doesn't match your complexion, it's just that I really hate the word 'puce'."
"Well, Adam, you know I trust you with everything so I will go with the dark blue."
"Anyway," began Adam, "what do you think of Lou Reed?"
"You whore!"
"What?"
"You stole Valerie from me!" exclaimed Rob. (A/N Valerie is a friend of mine who loves matchbox 20 and counting crows)
"I didn't. She just sees you for who you are, a ridiculously pompous ass."
"I guess that's fair. Say, what was your question?"
"Oh," said Adam, "Do you like Lou Reed?"
"Well, he was really awesome with the Velvet Underground but except for some exceptions, his later stuff just didn't match up. Walk on the Wild Side was really great though... That's always a classic. I also like Belle and Sebastian."
"What does that have to do with Lou Reed?" "Nothing. I just like them."
"Okay."
