generously endowed each of their songs with basslines, and even gone so far as to bring aboard Yo La Tengo producer Roger Moutenot. A whole five years later, the band has given up all pretense of preserving their original setup, purchased a drumkit. Still, that album's liner notes crowed about the fact that all the drumming was done sans-sticks, and the band's overall dynamic and intensity hadn't changed at all- they'd just elevated their craft and got a bigger budget. That record could have easily been trounced by Steve Lillywhite's spit-shine production, but the songs were so intricately layered and expertly crafted that I didn't really mind. Guster actually realized this in time for their third album, 1998's Lost & Gone Forever, an album I still give a spin from time to time.

There was a charming simplicity to their portable music, but- as my esteemed colleague Mark Richardson once remarked about them on this very site- when you're doing the stripped-down acoustic thing, every song has to hit hard or your album won't hold up. Guster originally emerged from Tufts University in Somerville, Massachusetts in the mid-90s with a pair of self-released albums that brought their two-guitars-and-bongos busker act to the studio and earned them a bucketload of worshipful praise from the Boston music press. Traveling further up the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority's Red Line, we find another Boston-area band discovering that a distinctive sound can quickly become a well-worn rut, and subsequently branching out. God only knows what they'd sound like today if Mark Sandman was still with us. The fact is, Morphine had to change on that last album to avoid becoming totally lost in the cul de sac they found themselves in on their previous release, 1997's Like Swimming. It’s an essential part of the human condition, so let’s talk about how we can support your event or cause.Morphine had that problem to a degree, but they compensated with little deviations like 'In Spite of Me', and ultimately even abandoned their stripped bass/drums/sax approach on their overlooked swansong, The Night. We’ll design co-branded hats and shirts and support the cause with a donation. If you have an event supporting a cause or 501 c organization, let us know. If you want to stand out and get the attention of customers, show them something different. The “Keep It Together” hats and shirts remind us all there is more golf today. No round is ever the same, yet you wouldn’t know it given the way most golf brands present themselves. Golf is a great game with many dimensions to it.

While most courses also feature their own branded gear, if you have seen one pro shop, you’ve essentially seen them all. That’s because golf apparel is dominated by Nike, Taylor Made, Titlist, and Ashford. So much so, that golfers habitually and routinely simply walk straight to the counter to pay for their round, with nothing more than a cursory glance at the hats and shirts.
