There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Honestly, Cor, doing a gig of nothing but Pynchon songs would pack a house in Austin.
That's a great idea! Our current cover project is working out the first side of The Who Sell Out, commercials and all, with the Distant Seconds (two of whom were in that Kinks cover band I used to play in). We're all playing at a Who Hoot night next month. My band is taking "Armenia, City In The Sky" and "I Can See For Miles". Up for grabs are "Tattoo" and "Our Love Was".
Up for grabs are "Tattoo" and "Our Love Was".
Somebody should do "Early Morning, Cold Taxi." The only decent song Roger ever wrote. Speaking of non-Pete songs, I'd love to see you singing "My Wife." Preferably with your wife and Sphere in the audience.

That is a good song. We don't have the wherewithal or time limit to go past side one, though, especially into the bonus tracks.

Now you're just trying to get me in trouble.
OT: The Job discussion at the end of the last natter thread made me hope that David Maine will take that story on for his next Biblical novel.
I think Boxer's fate was supposed get an emotional response, though.
When I was young, like five or six, the film version broke me. I was inconsolable for hours at home afterwards, then we went to visit my cousins and I spent my time there relating what happened to Boxer and sobbing. I can remember being exhausted from crying.
I think that George Orwell's writing philosophy was like Brecht's-- to incite action rather than emotion.
Isn't the incitement to action the emotional response they've prodded you for though?

I always think that, and my teachers always sort of argued with me. Although I am not so sure how much action I could take as a blubbering mess!
