Chatty!co-worker is the kind of person who likes to act soooooooo superior because *he* knows information that 99% of the population doesn't know (or give a damn) about. So once, in discussing music, I said something about The Doves, and he replied with, "Do you mean Doves, or THE Doves? They're 2 totally different bands, and only one is any good," blah blah blah.
It looks like THE Doves used to be Thrashing Doves. But no one cares about them. People only care about Doves, so shut up, Chatty!co-worker.
I don't sneer at people who don't know that there was more than one Robin, for instance.
Hee.
I love Evanescence.

This bit from Wikipedia amuses the hell out of me:
There is some evidence to suggest that their career was irrevocably harmed when British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher expressed fondness for their video for "Beautiful Imbalance" when she saw it on Saturday Superstore.

Heh.
Reminds me of this joke that Rick told in
The Young Ones.
Knock Knock
Who's there?
Thatcher!
That just cracked my friends and me up....
Huh. There was a Nirvana before Nirvana.
Hec, are you seeing the Breeders today?
I wish. Emmett had a game (which we lost). So it was a lose/lose proposition.
Emmett did hit a double off the fence, though, so that was good.
I mean Doves, but I have problems not using definite articles in band names like that.
I really dig "The Last Broadcast" but "Some Cities" is really good too. You know, if you're going to listen to everything I say and make it happen in your own life.
Anybody seen the Steampunk band Abney Park?
What makes them "Steampunk" other than their old-timey costumes?

Their old timey website? Also apparently mod their instruments.
