Frank Yang If you were to ask me what I thought MOG did – and for the life of me I can't imagine why you would – the best I could offer is that they excel at getting my exhausted ass out of bed early on the Saturday of SXSW to go line up at The Mohawk so I can stand around for hours on end.

Bob Mould: "If I Can't Change Your Mind" (Sugar "Cover") (Live On A.V. Undercover) (Video)

Tue, August 02 2011 3:54pm - Source: Prefix Magazine

This is a bit different than the normal episode of A.V. Undercover, in that Bob Mould is the guest, and instead of covering something by Ted Leo or Huey Lewis, he "covers" his old band Sugar's "If I Can't Change Your Mind." In the pre-video interview, Mould says it's definitely a cover, since he's just playing it by himself, before he starts making fun of himself in the third person.

The former Husker Du and Sugar singer wasn't the primary musical guest on the show—that honor went to his fellow '80s underground survivor Thurston Moore—but he did find time to have a brief canter through "If I Can't Change Your Mind" from Copper Blue. It's only a short extract from the song, which is pretty frustrating, especially as it features the Roots stepping in as Mould's backing band.
