Fill in the blank.

Ben Folds opening for John Mayer is like ____________ opening for _________________.

A. Bruce Springsteen, Air Supply
B. Lucinda Williams, Carrie Underwood
C. Bob Dylan, Kid Rock
D. Wilco, Jack Johnson

Actually the correct answer is D, because both Folds and Tweedy are recent legends, while Mayer shares wilth Johnson a place on sleepy-dreamy-lite-rock tip. A, B, and C represent my knee-jerk reaction when I heard about this tour. Maybe I was hasty.
