I listen to that once in a while! Terrific theme song.

Dion's "Kickin' Child" has been the focus for me for the past few days, along with Buddy Miles's "Them Changes." I'm old school, although I haven't attended school at all for many years.

I'm undoubtedly older than most of you guys- I grew up on MASH. I met Alda in a store here in NYC about seven or eight years ago, and we had an interesting conversation about writing good dialogue (I'm a writer). He laughed very hard when I told him a couple of my favorite one-liners from MASH, and talked to me…

You've got to hand it to him.

It would be helpful if people realized that Oliver Stone is fucking shit-crazy. But there's a lot of that going around these days,

I saw Prince on the Purple Rain tour and Talking Heads on the Stop Making Sense tour. You guys are right to be bummed that you missed them, I'll tell you that. Both were both mind-blowing.

R.E.M. is the single most disappointing concert I've ever seen, rather incredibly. It was the tour right before they released Lifes Rich Pageant, and rumor had it that they were seriously sick of each other. They absolutely just went through the paces and were done in about an hour. Not a single memorable thing…

Same here, in a big way. I do, however, live across the street from the building here in New York where he wrote all his big tunes, and rehearsed with guys like Miles, Coltrane, and Rollins. I think of him every day when I walk by it.

I agree that he would have been great on that tour. I saw him do a solo acoustic show in 1992 or something like that, and it was a surprising snooze.

He also would have skipped Raspberry Beret because he hadn't written it yet.

That doesn't sound right. Is she sure about the tour?? That was Prince at the peak of his Prince-ness, and I don't remember a single comment about him preaching at the time! I saw him in Atlanta, and it was wall-to-wall with slamming funk and glam rock, with Prince sliding into a different outift every ten minutes.

That's mine. I would have killed to be there.

That movie is shit.

I agree with that, and felt the same way when I saw them with Jones drumming.

I saw the Who in 1982, and they stunk. But I worked shoulder-to-shoulder with Daltrey for a week once, and had a couple of hilarious conversations with Entwistle. They were both really cool. The best part was when Entwistle saw Alice Cooper walking across the studio toward him and said, "Oh fuck."

I saw Prince on the Purple Rain tour in Atlanta. Twelfth row. I saw Talking Heads on the Stop Making Sense tour in Tallahassee. I saw the Ramones in Atlanta in 1981.

Yet another similarity between Churchill and latter-day Elvis. They were also both fat.

It may be hard to read one goddamn book by Churchill if you're the producers of this movie.

Well, if you worked for a studio you could just predict that it will make a bunch of money. That's the same as being "good."

Again- he could have picked a far better way to do that.
