But no cone.
No cone, no shame!
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'm just back from my LA trip to do my Tom Waits tour. Tour went very well - full bus. And I got to have Sean as my guest! Wooo!
I stayed with my friend Rio (not Anaheed) and she took me to see Oingo Boingo.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I like your friend Rio from Facebook. She posts good pictures and good animals!
I apologize for forgetting that Scrappy the Human has been spayed. I am glad that human surgery does not involve a cone of shame.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I love how you just drop the boingo thing all cazh

Word. Is Elfman playing with them?

If it is the stuff around LA that it's usually tribute show put together by Johnny Vatos and some other members of the band. Steve Bartek will occasionally play with them, but I'm not aware of Elfman having any involvement.

I got to go backstage and drill them with questions about 70s Los Angeles.

Bartek did play on this occasion, and it was about 2/3rds original members I'd hazard. Vatos, Bartek, Avila, Sluggo were the ones I recognized.
No Elfman present. But their ringer singer was good, and the band was tight as a drum-head. It was great hearing songs like "Grey Matter" and "No One Lives Forever" live.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Seething with Oingo Boingo jealousy, even sans Elfman.

Elfman seems to be of the type that doesn't look backward, so it is rare to see him even speak fondly of the Oingo Boingo years in interviews. It was a treat seeming him to a few songs with Bartek and the LA Philharmonic after the Halloween live performance of Nightmare Before Christmas at the Hollywood bowl, but that seems to be as close as we are ever going to get.

He's not interested in being a rock musician at all anymore. I don't know why anybody would begrudge the band playing the songs. Nobody else plays like them with that combination of precision and chaos. It's not like they're doing disco knockoffs for money.
Vatos had recently seen Danny's new String Quartet - which he praised to the heavens. Said it was one of the best things Danny's ever done. I don't think there's any enmity there.
I didn't love the new singer at first. He could sing it okay (indeed he's got more range than Danny) but was only on some of the more twisted songs later where he basically played it like a character, inhabiting the lyrics like an actor that I got into it. More than one actor gets to be Sherlock Holmes. More than one singer gets to sing those songs.
