Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

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

Matilda woke up at 5am, so I took her out to the living room this morning and remembered that I had Tivoed Urgh! A Music War.

I hadn't seen it in about 15-20 years.

I had forgotten:

How much XTC sounded like Gang of Four in their early days.

About the existence of Athletico Spizz and "Where's Captain Kirk?"

How cool that English Beat t-shirt is that Sting wears.

How fast Stewart Copeland's hands are.

How zaftig Belinda Carlisle used to be (and cuter for it).

Who that bass player was with the Cramps.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What channel was U!AMW on?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I never understood how Belinda was all curvy when a crazy coke head and how skinny when cleaned up.

VH-1 Classic - Movies that Rock.

Was this post-Barry Andrews? Because I can totally see that. I would think those helium-injected keybs of Andrews would seriously mitigate any Go4 comparisons (despite his ending up with Dave Allen in Shriekback).

Oh shoot! I wonder if it will be on again.

It's pretty early in their career. 1980-81? It's one of the only clips of them as a live band.

They do "Respectable Street" - a song I used to put on all my party mixes in college.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Depends on what else she was doing at the time, but I know a couple people who put on the pounds when doing a lot of coke. Basically, they stop exercising and they feel like they can drink a lot more, both of which more than counteract the metabolism speed-up.

Well, if you all still have VCRs I can tape it for you.

I have the VCR but is no longer hooked up. I bet it will be on again though.
