I'm not stopping you sir. :)
Of course with Curtis at the time there was no internet, so no massive grief-striken fans airing their feelings online…

My husband has predicted a few deaths but in the wrestling world. Which is another thing altogether - so many wrestlers know many people, friends who are gone. But of course in their line of work it's something else.

I saw LC that tour as well. My mom had passed away a few months before and had left me a bit of money and i used that money literally to get a good seat. It was worth it.

a friend and I were talking at lunchtime about how we'll probably have to take the day off when Leonard Cohen dies. (we're Canadian, so you know.)

yeah that's the timing I'm giving them too. but you never know. McCulloch smokes like a fiend, he could get cancer next effing year :(

That's hilarious. there is no way I would have ever listened to darling nikki in the car with MY MOM!

1999 is a good place to start IMO.

SERIOUSLY. the U2/Casey Kasem craziness is essential listening and reading.

she said her character is not Asian. she might not be the ancient one. my hubby thinks there are several ancient ones in several parallel universes, and hence not all asian. we shall see.

You could have your own Blur song "JOO HOOOOO!"

when my early brit heroes start to drop (i.e Robert smith, ian mcculloch, Bernard summner) I am going to be sooo crushed. :(

Ahead is such an awesome song. one of my top 5 favourites of all time.

I find pretty much all top 50 music severely murder-inducing. it's nice to know someone else finds some music murder-inducing too. and I'm not being a music snob, it's just that… basically if I go in a shopping mall and overhear garbage repetitious music, I feel like killing everyone in sight.

everlong is the best. definitely. (coming from someone whose entire knowledge of foo fighters comes from videos)

no no no they RAPED the sky. we need to get both sides of the story here.

YES.

I hope to (anything and everything) that you are right.

THANK YOU!

I also know smart and/or arrogant people with shit taste in music :)

Good for you, they are woooooonderful live :)
