The taxicabs in The Wiz.  What are those things?  Are there people inside?  Are they even cars, or are they living beings?  Are there doors, and is it even theoretically possible for a person to get inside and ride around?

Within the context of the story, what are the monsters?  Are they people, are they supernatural, are they robots, or what?

There's just a little mention of it in "It Crawled from the South":

One detail you might considering including when you get around to Out of Time is the slight acrimony around Peter Holsapple's involvement in the writing process.  As I heard it he was stiffed on some promised co-writing credits, and it seems like it's one of the very few semi-black spots on the band's reputation for…

WHERE'S THE NEW ADVENTURES OF BEANS BAXTER?

He really looks exactly like half Paul and half Linda.

How is "Washed Up Emo" not the Emo Phillips podcast.

There was a thing about some lines lifted from "Confessions of a Yakuza" on "Love and Theft", but there was a bit of a bigger flap over a larger selection of lines being lifted from poetry by Henry Timrod and Ovid on Modern Times.  It's somewhat separate from the issue of musical quotation, which was brought up. …

Surprised not to see any mention of the plagiarism thing on this album.  I love this record and don't think it's somehow invalidated as art by a collection of borrowed lines, but I think there's story to be untangled there and I was hoping to see that happen here.

guitarist, she sets her bar even higher on songs like “Pardon?”, which
pits dreamy, oscillating jangle against epic jazz-fusion solos."

Greet me, Tommy Davidson!

Damnit, where's the thread where everybody sleuths out the name of Phipps' mystery film?

"actual centipedes have more refined taste, though if someone were to
attach them pincer to telson, they’d have to evolve or perish"

There is a little bit of a 'wtf' to this announcement.  I mean I don't care, I never had any interest in this tour, but I always liked the somewhat principled stand Waters took about playing stadium shows, and how he refused to stage The Wall in stadiums when Pink Floyd were touring it.  Stuff he said about how the…

It's worth pointing out that a really big chunk ofThe Year Punk Broke is Moore & Gordon et al reenacting bits almost verbatim from Madonna: Truth or Dare, so, you know, I always wonder if people talking about how insufferable they are in the movie aren't picking up on that, especially since it wasn't mentioned in the…

The AV Club has been really circumspect about acknowledging Tom's constant AV Club-baiting over the past few weeks.

I can totally see
