A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

ETA: Ah, but of course it is, Frank. Bestest store there is!

Old Port? Mall? North Windham?

I figure it's not Brunswick, though that's my location (being home and all).

For those who might be interested, and understand the comparison, Bull Moose is the Newbury Comics of Maine (even though I think NC have a S. Portland location themselves now, I think of them as strictly MA).

I wondered the same thing, Lilty. I think I have a vague recollection of a discussion about this a while back. I don't remember the outcome or anything, of course. So not helpful.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Actually, a year or so ago, they opened up a Scarborough Warehouse location, which is where I go. It's great- huge space and they get the odd weekend afternoon performance. (I know I've seen the name Dresden Dolls kicked around here- they will be in-store this month.)

WHOA!!!! Holy SHIT! When? Where is it in Scarborough? You need to see them, even if others can't make it.

Yep, it's in Scarborough, just before South Portland on the Payne Rd. I know nothing of them, but they are playing a show in town that night, so will play the afternoon at BullMoose. I can get more info tonight.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

GO SEE THE DRESDEN DOLLS DAMMIT.

That is my advice to you, Lilty.

What P-C said. Also, I need dates and location - my brother would be interested to know and if it doesn't conflict with my move I will defintely catch them wherever they are playing.

Fuck, they're playing Super Bowl Sunday. Feh. I'll have to catch them around town I guess. I'll let my brother know anyway, but Sunday is probably not going to fly with him for a live show.

Feh, I say. Feh.

ETA If you want to get an idea what they're about, Lilty, check out Dresdendolls.com

Interesting site from the little I saw.

You know, I think if they weren't coming as a gift, and therefore, free, I'd be making a trip... well, at least tomorrow. Am very excited, though. I'm remarkably unspoiled for the back half. No scripts, no peeking in on the spoiler thread. Such restraint.

You're stronger than I. I have em on VHS, and am still twitching a bit at having to wait another week to get the DVDs as a birthday gift.

[insert something funny here]

I am still puzzling over why/how my Wonderfalls DVD's arrived here (well, technically at my Father's house) last Thursday.

Especially as this is the UK. Weird. Cool, but still weird.
