For those of you who don’t really know who the Dismemberment Plan are (which is most of you, I’ll assume, the primary exception being those of you who meticulously catalog every band who has ever appeared on every broadcast of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon), “the Plan” (as some lesser individuals ironically refer to them) was formed on January 1, 1993 in Washington,...
