7653. Macnas - 11/11/2004 10:31:01 AM I like the folky type REM best, more so than anything they have made of late.
U2 I never got into all that much, I never bought anything they made. But many years ago, jaysus when I think on it, a very long time ago, I saw them play and in the live sense at least, they were great. 7654. Ms. No - 11/11/2004 6:13:22 PM Mac,
I was just looking above and coveting your music collection. Good stuff there!
I'm just thrilled the Pixies are back together. I never did get enough of them 7655. Macnas - 11/15/2004 1:57:31 PM Texas chainsaw massacre, as performed by bunnies.

You mutherfockin bitch... Tim and Neil are New Zealanders of course. 7657. alistairconnor - 11/15/2004 2:18:22 PM Hm. Ewe too? Bought the first album, Boy, in ... ??? about 1980 that would have been. My favourite record for several weeks. The whole sound, all the originality I have ever perceived in them was in that. Mid period U2 just seemed bloated, pompous and pumped up with subliminally recycled Stones and Zeppelin. I confess I haven't listened to anything they've done in about the last decade.
REM, I was aware of but basically I missed out on when they were hip, 80s and early 90s. Automatic is the only record I own. But yes, both musically and ethically, they are my pick. Stand in the place that you work, etc. 7658. Macnas - 11/17/2004 8:52:16 PM "meet the new boss....same as the old boss"
What am I listening to? 7659. Macnas - 11/17/2004 9:21:41 PM Or this one..
"talkin' 'bout them tiny cookies....that the peoples eat" 7660. arkymalarky - 11/17/2004 10:28:42 PM Joe Walsh? 7661. arkymalarky - 11/17/2004 10:29:18 PM The Who? 7662. angel-five - 11/18/2004 3:51:28 AM The second one's Zappa. 7663. Macnas - 11/18/2004 10:05:16 AM Well done Arky and angel,
First was The Who, (won't get fooled again), and second was Frank Zappa, (City of tiny lights). 7664. Macnas - 11/19/2004 11:08:21 PM And what am I listening to at the moment?, at very high volume I might add....
"I got your picture, I got your picture, I want a million of them all 'round myself,
I want a doctor, to take your picture, so I can look at you from inside as well" 7665. thoughtful - 11/20/2004 12:38:14 AM Played hooky this p.m. and friend and i went to see the william morris show. Learned a lot as always and saw lots of wonderful things.
In addition to the interior decor stuff he was famous for including tapestries, wall paper, rugs, and fabrics, he also did some wonderful stained glass windows and a lot of incredible books. Unbelievably intricate work.
 7666. arkymalarky - 11/20/2004 4:24:47 AM I'd love that first in my living room.
The first line of that sounds so familiar, Mac, but I can't place it. 7667. arkymalarky - 11/20/2004 4:25:17 AM I'm better at going from music to words than the other way around. 7668. judithathome - 11/20/2004 5:55:13 AM William Morris was a genius of decorative arts. His wall papers are fabulous. 7669. justears - 11/23/2004 1:11:15 AM I've become an avid fan of Penelope Fitzgerald. Anyone else in here think she is remarkable? I've now read:
The Bookshop, The Blue Flower, Gate of Angels, and Offshore. (also the order in which I prefer them). Does anyone have a recommendation for the next one to read? 7670. Macnas - 11/23/2004 10:48:28 AM Arky
Its the Vapours, Turning Japanese. 7671. Ulgine Barrows - 11/23/2004 11:08:34 AM Well, Macnas. You didn't wait long enough. I knew that.
I've heard that 'turning japanese' is an euphemism for masturbation, because white people's eyes crinkle up into slits when they orgasm.
7665. thoughtful.
that is gorgeous - the cool blues and greens. 7672. Macnas - 11/23/2004 11:57:35 AM UB's
I'll never listen to that song again, just in case.
