Thanks Ian. What was that movie about the Joy Division/ Happy Mondays scene that came out a few years ago? I saw that-- I'm mildly familiar with the bands from that. Terrible, I know. |

Cook up a brew of superlatives, I stand at the ready. |

Totally serious. Don't know a thing about them, what kind of music they make, nothing. I had no interaction with any of that scene whatsoever. |

Jeff's been practicing his poker face lately, no question about it. |

Practicing for May. |

Huh. I just think you would know the band and album from reading about rock. As legendary, acclaimed and popular as The Velvets, if not more so.
You don't know Love Will Tear Us Apart? |

If not formally, then not at all; besides, maybe I'm hanging out with some rock stars that day. |

Funny; I didn't know Love Will Tear Us Apart until Andy really got into them around December or so. I knew both their albums but hadn't really explored further. He made me a pretty great comp of non-album stuff he culled from the boxed set that I think is just as good (if not better) listening than either of the albums, actually. |

Ah, May will be pretty crazy, actually, so don't waste your construction paper on me. When it actually gets close to the event, I'll see if I can do it (that is, if it's OK with Jeff and Dave - I wouldn't want to intrude on a "Top Three Posters" meeting). |

Nope. My reading on rock falls off the planet around 1979. My knowledge of 1980 and on is full of major holes and I never read deeply past that time. It was part of my "1960's had all the good music" thing I was in in high school and college. That and the fact that all of my peers listened to BAD 80s music. Give me something like Lush I never heard of and there's a good chance I will go to it. So maybe the same will be true here. |

Who the f*ck will mediate otherwise? I'd seriously love it if you could make it, if at all possible. |

Oh man, on LA radio in 80 thru 85, you coldn't get away from that damn song. It was the goth Hey Jude. |

Heck, this whole thing got started when 1) my daughter and wife continue their "ladies week out" trip with grammy and leave me at home alone for a week and 2) Ian moved to a Skybus stop that allows me to fly there roundtrip for $50. Nothing more special than that. Then Dave decided to drive down. Ian's the gatekeeper (or more accurate Becky who has to open her home to us for multiple days to sleep on her furniture). |

Man, there is so much stuff I'd love to turn Dave on to! I'll have to get back to you after I go consult my list! |

The term for the joke is "keymaster". And let's not get Dave started on cheesy 80's movies. |

"We Gotta Get You A Woman"?
Seriously, though, Dave's mind is more open lately, let's take advantage of the brainwashing opportunity. Triumph Of The Snob. |
