'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
VF, Add It Up, on YouTube
OMFG, Cindy. Kids who were not yet BORN when they did that show can DRINK. Also, they all look so YOUNG.
VF were great live, at least when I saw them in '91.
Today's flist nostalgia was Charlie Sexton.
Chrislee linked to some of his old stuff and some of his new stuff on YouTube. I was happy to see that he's still amazingly beautiful. No longer quite as unnaturally so as he was in his teens, but still very pretty. It shocked me to realize he's still not yet 40.
I have a huuuge soft spot for The West Wing, though I never did get around to finishing watching it. Caught it on the reruns on Bravo, but couldn't be arsed to pick up the newer seasons yet.
The characters grabbed me enough to get me to watch it again. I like the Whitford and Perry chemistry, but I liked that on TWW too.
Hrmph.
Am sorrowful that no one has put up the Glass Spider tour clips with David Bowie and Charlie Sexton on YouTube. Am also sorrowful that my VHS tapes were destroyed by my younger sibling in a fit of Decorating With Magnetic Tape while I was away at college.
I hope Studio 60 improves. I've got Paul DVRing it for me at work, drat it.
I'm 17 in, and I'm still stuck on the meta. Sorkin ranting on the set of TWW about the dumbness of network tv. And with Felicity Huffman in the wings. Yeah, still stuck on the meta.
And the Sorkin-ness of Sorkin. Sorkining his little Sorkin-ass off.

I saw that tour! Although, sadly, I expect I saw them about 3000 miles from you. Also, it made me feel vaguely old even then.

I didn't see them on a solo tour! I saw them when Lollapalooza didn't have any stinking numbers after it!
Aimee, you would love my friend Laura. We got incredibly drunk on the Friday before Labor Day and she was adamant about forcing me to watch her VHS tapes of NKOTB. Fortunately, for me, she threw away her VCR the previous weekend. The two of you would likely get along fabulously!
Loved Studio 60. It took me a little while to get into it but the final half hour grabbed me.
I did not see the originalpalooza -- I just happened to catch a show the summer after graduating from college. There was much disaffected standing around glaring at all the young'uns who couldn't possibly understand how we felt about VF when they were, like 8. And we were, like, 15. Oh, the disaffectitude!
I spent the evening watching the first two eps of Spooks S5. Love this show so, so, so, so much. Whee! It's back.
I only saw Lollapalooza 2, but the lineup made me very happy at the time -- Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Ministry, Body Count (Ice-T's metal band), the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and my personal favorite event of the day, the Jim Rose Circus Sideshow (almost certainly not work safe).
