HEY YOU!  GO READ!

Bjork was definitely a mind-expanding blast, but R. Kelly was pretty incredible in his own right.  It helped to be in a part of the crowd that knew pretty much every word to every song, but dude is a showman through and through.  Also, he released like a billion balloon doves, and I found out I knew the entire chorus

wait what?

What. Is. The. DEAL. With that?

ALWAYS listen to Iman

Sounds fair

I didn't know about The Iron Heel, but I knew about The Star Rover, about a guy on death row who explores all of his past lives.  I'd always see it at my old library next to his nature books, pick it up, read the back cover and say "What the hell?  This is the same guy who wrote Call of the Wild??"

I saw you had "Call of the Wild" on there, but I'd like to suggest "The Sea Wolf" too.

Jason Reitman?

We are through the looking glass, people!

YES!  It is the greatest running music.  Try playing it as you cross the finish line in a marathon.

TOO SOON

I was about 50 or so pages into 2666. I was already on the fence when a friend scared me off finishing it after telling me about a lengthy section that just basically recounts a bunch of grisly murders.  He made it sound tedious and depressing.  Accurate?

What?  You didn't like Assblasters 2?

Ditto on that being the best part of Monsters U.  I laughed like an idiot for a good 10-15 seconds.

I've only seen a couple, but "The Trial of Allen Iverson" was thoroughly fantastic.

Go listen to Jesu's album Conqueror ASAP!

No.  It's merely really forgettable.  The internet just really hates Larry The Cable Guy.
