It’s Wednesday, and time for another Retro Rewind. Each week we check out a cool back issue of Performer, and reminisce about how great we are. Pats on the back, big cigars, the whole deal. Sounds like fun, huh?

Anyway, this week we take a look back at our 2001 cover story on Death Cab for Cutie. We interviewed the band before the release of their third album, and way before their national breakthrough.
