Paul Collins: I’ve always wanted to visit Calgary, because where I grew up, we’d hear all about the StampedeMy family was heavily involved in the Pendleton Roundup [an Oregon rodeo event], but I was a terrible excuse for a cowboy. The first time I tried riding a calf, it wouldn’t buck, no matter how hard you twisted its tail... [so] I became a musician. But things could’ve been different. I never thought I’d be visiting Calgary with my cool indie rock band. I thought I’d be in Calgary fucking getting drunk, putting dip into my mouth, getting into fights. But now, we’ve got Beirut. Woo hoo! Beirut!
