Mac McCaughan (co founder of Superchunk/Merge Records

I've known Mac since our high school bands (The Pressure Boys and The Pneumatic Underground) crossed paths on stage at my alma mater (Chapel Hill High School) way back in the mid 1980's. Eventually, the tables were turned and we met again, this time at his alma mater when Superchunk and The Sex Police played a double bill on his home turf of Jordan High in Durham, NC.

Co-founding not only Superchunk, but also the stalwart Merge Records, Mac has become one of the most respected people in the biz...
