Sorry weird hair guy, I forgot to take out your trashy opinion. Sorry Ma is better than your stinky fake dreadlocks. .

Love "Steeltown". My favorite Big Country album as well. Great, great band.

Here Comes a Regular

Dewey Dell getting banged out on the floor was all I needed to see. Is it really that hard to artfully imply in a film something artfully implied in a novel? Directors only did it for decades.

Replacements: "Here Comes a Regular", "Red, Red Wine", "Beer For Breakfast", "If Only You Were Lonely"
American Music Club: "Outside This Bar"

This is tough. One each from the first three:

"that crippled Irishman".

Please never mention the Stones and Aerosmith in the same sentence again.

One thing I found very interesting is that the script was filmed exactly as written by Bukowski, which must be somewhat rare. And he points out the scene…

Saw this film too many times. So many great quotes. I will throw out these favorites:

RIP. The music will live forever.

I am recent to Medford and agree that 'downtown" is now Davis Square, which is strange since downtown, when I lived in Somerville, was downtown Boston. Now that i am in Medford, I would never say I am from Boston, but would likely use "Boston area" if traveling, whereas when I lived in Somerville, I might say Boston,…
