I was a cook at a French Quarter restaurant in the late 80's and Alex Chilton was washing dishes for Susan Spicer's restaurant down the street, I think it was at Louis XIV's. He was good people.

NY Times Article
Great article in the Times about Treme and David Simon. http://www.nytimes.com/2010…

That was a cool post you had on Ebert's blog, Noel, and his response was awesome as well.

I hear ya, pico79 . We also like to practice voodoo and eat pickled pig lips smothered in crushed Zapp's potato chips on a nightly basis too. I worked a catering gig for a Treme production party in town and they debuted the first episode for all the muckety-mucks in town. David Simon's been coming to NOLA for many…

Northern Exposure
I'm surprised nobody's mentioned it. My fave would either "Dateline Cicely" , with the whispering trees or "The Body In Question" with the frozen Frenchman

You're thinking of "The Post-Modern Prometheus". The X-Files version of Frankenstein, great episode.

No love for Humbug? Scully eats a bug! And Noel, were you a Frank's Place fan? Too bad that's not on DVD, stupid music rights.

And lest we forget, Undercover Blues, Hard Target, Interview With Vampire, All The King's Men, The Skeleton Key, The Big Easy(ugh), Heaven's Prisoners and the execrable Sonny.

Miller's Crossing, Angel Heart, Pretty Baby, JFK, Cincinnati Kid, Easy Rider, Down By Law.

AV Club should review the new Visqueen album. It kicks all kinds of ass.

Wasn't Billy Bob Thornton really drunk in most of his scoenes? Seems like I read that somewhere.

Dancing Neko
She can get down… http://www.youtube.com/watc…

Had a chance to see her back in August at the Ryman in Nashville which was cool as hell but a pretty sedate setting. Saw her two weeks ago in New Orleans at the Republic, a small, dingy club that was absolutely packed to the rafters with rowdy folks. Both terrific shows but the New Orleans show kicked more ass. Neko…

Sam Raimi's Delta 88
Does it make an appearance in this movie?

Hell yeah, Port of Call makes an excellent burger. Eat there then go two blocks down to Dragons Den and get your freak on.

Colin Cowherd is a blowhard douchenozzle of the highest order.
