Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

'Shells'


Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I am the whitest person alive: Kid Creole has been on staff at my firm for a year. I just found out.

Jesus. Rock stars that don't sell out have it tough.

I was just talking about the fact that the drummer from Husker Du had to become a chef.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

John Cale, Richard Thompson and Shawn Colvin do Heartbreak Hotel.

John Cale, Chrissie Hynde and Nick Cave do Ship of Fools.

John Cale & The Creatures play I Was Me.

It doesn't suck to be John Cale.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Nope. He got to smash a piano on stage. This was before he took up rock-n-roll....

The Cale is awesome, but I must pick this nit. It's not the drummer from Husker Du, Grant Hart, who became a chef, but Greg Norton, the bassist.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I thought Greg was a Maitre D.

OK, that makes more sense.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Actually, I kind of like it that good musicians have the wherewithal to pursue other professions successfully, like Mo Tucker becoming a computer programmer or Sterling Morrison a professor of English. Instead of becoming drug addicts on welfare, for instance.
