Oh, hell yeah. I loved that show, but whenever Bill Bixby would glare up at the camera with those creepy contacts in his eyes, I'd have to hide behind my parents. And yet I insisted on watching it. My parents were saints.

It's not much, but…
The lead singer of Snowpony once spit on me.

Tinted Windows
Don't mean nothin', they know who's inside…

I'd also like to know how many calories slowly building up a fanbase then quickly and arbitrarily destroying it burns.

I haven't read any Updike in
A Month of Sundays was always my favorite. Maybe because it kept making the rounds among my circle of soon-to-be Divinity School dropouts (well one of us did graduate, but now teaches a high school drama class), and we all liked to think we'd grow up to be jaded preachers who got to bang a…

Roger, Wilco?
I just don't get Wilco. I've listened to YHF and that Ghosts one. I've tried AM and the Billy Bragg/Woody Guthrie thing. Maybe it's the whole alt.country thing, since I don't have much for Ryan Adams, Son Volt, Uncle Tupelo, or the Jayhawks, either (although "Blue" is a great song).

Ray Dennis Steckler
What, no love for Ray, director of such cult classics as Wild Guitar, Rat Pfink a Boo Boo, The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies, and more importantly, Debbie Does Las Vegas?

Umm…
I've kinda always liked Jill Sobule. Her albums have actually gotten better since the "novelty" hit. I thought Pink Pearl was especially nice. Cut the girl a little slack, wouldja?

Aaron
I've heard of more than three bands on Aaron's list (and own and love two of them). What does that say about me?

Absolute Zero
The imaginary band I created in junior high was called Absolute Zero. They had albums like "The Rest of the Weird" and "Book of Cheese". Ah, junior high.

I caught part of this one time. I think they were trying to teach me how to freeze a fart for later enjoyment.

US is okay. I've always liked it, but for some reason, it never got the play that 3 or So did. There's 10 years between Us and Up. Up sounded good just because it was nice to have an actual Peter Gabriel album (and not a soundtrack or world music collaboration), but it has not aged well for me.

Genesis
I sometimes catch flak for liking Genesis. No, scratch that, for LOVING Genesis. Yes, even I can't tolerate Calling All Stations. We Can't Dance is bloated and muddy-sounding (despite some good songs). Phil Collins is a total dork. But Selling England By The Pound, The Lamb…, A Trick of the Tail, and Duke will…

I tried to convince my uncle that the Bee Gees were cool (and he's the "cool uncle" who let me borrow all his Bowie albums when I was a kid). He just wasn't buying it. I think the disco stuff has eclipsed songs like I Started a Joke and Lonely Nights, which is unfortunate.

Some of his songs are cheesy, yes, but The Eagle And The Hawk…I can't even come up with words to describe it.

I'm there with you.
As a college-educated elitist with terrorist pals (and short hair and no tattoos), people are surprised to find a substantial amount of metal in my music collection, especially of the Cookie-Monster-on-vocals variety. There's a fine line between being technically proficient and masturbating (I'm…

Singing…I actually have a soft spot for some of Rod's disco-era singles, and I played the hell out of my Infatuation 45 when I was a kid. But those American Songbooks albums just really piss me off. I was working at a chain bookstore that had the first one on playlist for two months. On top of that, I was reminded of…

Rod Stewart
All the abominations-to-nature cover albums he can shit out every year cannot diminish his output with The Faces. Hell, I'll even throw in Every Picture Tells a Story, since it's a semi-Faces album.

I have a feeling…
You came up with this whole article as an excuse to use the term pre-mortis-coitus, didn't you?
