The title itself came from Lyra and Sue.
I was WONDERING whether you remembered that! It was a thrill to see "my" title on a real book. Now I just need to write one so the author's name and contents are mine, too.
It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I think it's Kristin's new project, 50'~, that is opening for the Pixies, not the Muses.
ETA: Unless that's why there's speculation... Please, God, don't let it happen! I wanna be there for that!

Yeah, the rumor is that Hersh's new band is listed to keep the reunion a surprise.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Goth bonanza on The Alternative. Added "Dear Prudence" (Siouxsie at the height of her black lace look), "Inbetween Days" and Bauhaus' "Spirit." Also, I'm thowing Adam Ant's "Prince Charming" video on despite it's complete non-gothery, simply because my rule of thumb for selection here is that if I was sitting down watching this with Jilli she'd go "Ooooh!" or "Eueuch!" And I think she'd like Adam Ant in makeup and highwayman gear and tight pants.
eta: Similarly just threw on Concrete Blonde's "Dancing Along the Edge" because Johnette waltzing around in a ruined wedding dress in arty b/w? Close enough for this tape.
Now I've just got to go find those Joy Divison ("Atmosphere") and Sisters vids on the previous episode...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Just got back from dropping off some treats for my poor minion (with her two herniated disks).
On the way back home, I was with minion and her friend on a street corner at 16th and Valencia in the Mission. Minion's Friend is standing there on the street corner reading my book as I try to hail a cab, and a woman came up and said, "Is that the book about records? I just heard about it on the radio." She was ordering a copy for husband for Christmas.
Also, Minion's Friend was looking at the back cover blurbs, saw one of the names and shouted out, "Blag Dahlia! No fucking way. I had a...uh...thing with him once. And another woman."

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

Sue, I saw where you received my mail, so no need to email me.

Misha: I tried to mail the Mountain Goats' Zopilote Machine to you yesterday but the file was too big for my POP server. I'm going to break it into two parts and try again this evening.
