Lucero's Ben Nichols is apparently singing on the new Hold Steady album. (Why not Blake Schwarzenbach?) And apparently Craig still likes beer (see photo). The boys are also having a beard growing contest (scroll). And Franz, a man already famous for his mustache, is playing solo shows in February. All caught up? Walk around and drink some more.

What does that Blake Schwarzenbach reference mean??

@ Dave
Craig's spoken about Blake (Jawbreaker) as a big lyrical influence.

I'd be content with a Lucero/reunited Jawbreaker/Hold Steady tour.
Ah, dreams.

Jawbreaker/Hold Steady/Lucero tour would be the show of a lifetime (they should join too!)
Ben Nichols is going to sound so good with Craig Finn. Awesome, awesome, awesome.

I think the Blake reference is because Ben and Blake sound similar. Ever heard Red40?
