Mark Wheat guest-hosts for Jim McGuinn again on this week's Teenage Kicks. It's a big weekend for us Teenage Kickers. Weezer and Pixies are both in town at the Xcel Energy Center, and Bob Mould returns to the Palace Theatre, so we'll have a look back at his long and storied career. And we lost another Teenage Kicker this week: Ranking Roger, co-lead singer of the English Beat, so we'll celebrate his life in music. And we'll celebrate birthdays of a Strangler and an AC/DC'er. And we'll look forward to the return of Mott the Hoople.
