Buffistas

This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

It's crazy, isn't it? It's like smell-based memories for me - mostly an emotional and sense-of-place thing.

absolutely. And sometimes, even though your tastes have changed, the original music still brings back the feelings. Take, for example, Def Leppard's "Hysteria" (Pour Some Sugar on Me, Animal, etc.) I LOVE LOVE LOVE that album. Would put it on my top 5. But, don't like anything they did after that. Did the music get crappy, or did I grow up? Don't know, but you'll pry that CD cassette out of my cold dead hands.

“Not dead yet!”

It's why I'm so adamant about making soundtracks when I'm working on a manuscript. I'm like Pavlov's dog without the drooling (most of the time)-- put the music on, I'm right back in the scene/world/character.

And Vortex, I'm that way about Styx's Paradise Theater. I even have one of the original vinyls with the laser etched hologram on the A-side

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Barb, do you often rock the Paradise?

Hmmm... haven't heard that album in ages....

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Ah, yes. Ain't that fresh.

If you have other options, then a rescheduling that never makes it onto the calendar seems the way to go.

I'm getting a lot of interviews on my own, really. We'll see what happens. I may call and cancel tomorrow.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I love that all three of my brother's kids are big fans of 60s and 70s music and mostly hate modern pop crap (I'm thinking Britney, et al here), and my oldest nephew's favorite band is Styx.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

I'm learning Eva Cassidy's version, which I like even more.

Love Eva Cassidy. She, Tierney Sutton, and Stacey Kent are my favorite contemporary(ish) standard singers.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

CJ loves Styx. Cracks me up. When he was very weeeeeeeee, he loved the intro to Renegade. LOVED it.

Happy Birthday, sarameg!

I remembered Southwestern chicken wraps as being much tastier than they apparently are. Should have gone with soup for lunch today.

I guess you don't have t-t-t-too much time on your hands.

My brother was big on Styx for a while, so I effectively was as well. I suspect I could still recite large portions of Paradise Theater & Kilroy Was Here.
