Columbus Is a Douche Bag

I saw Built to Spill for the first time at Little Brothers in Columbus. Between songs, Doug Martsch suggested that he might share some excerpts from the book he was reading, Lies My Teacher Told Me. He was particularly intrigued by the entries about Christopher Columbus, since they were set to play the city by the same name.

He proceeded to share an excerpt from a journal kept by one of Columbus' crew members. He read, "Columbus is a douche bag."

Built to Spill then continued their stellar set.
