We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

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."

Was this post-Barry Andrews?

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…

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

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.

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

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

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

Punishingly Intricate

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

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

"Respectable Street"

Lead-off track for Black Sea (album #4), so definitely post-Andrews. Killer song too.

Yeah, I think they cycle through their library. They've also shown Ladies and Gentlemen...The Fabulous Stains and Times Square.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I had Tivoed Urgh! A Music War

Hey, I watched that last night! Tivo was kind enough to copy it for me. It was quite awesome, and yet I was glad I could forward through some of the songs.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I know just the Stones song to drown away those blues.

Hah!

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