Go ahead, share with us.
And speaking of PJ Harvey (see below), did anyone else catch her on Letterman tonight? Not gonna see that on Conan or Leno, fer damn sure.
* Part of a very special evening that involved a field trip to the frontal lobes, two viewings of CE3K and playing the six sides of the first four Firesign Theater albums that form a coherent narrative (for extremely interesting values of "coherent" and "narrative") two days before Christmas 1977. Dragonet and I got to tell Phil Proctor about it at Minnecon many years later. He was amused.
** This was in my parent's record collection (and I would have sworn I had listened to it in our Prairie Village house, but it didn't come out until we'd moved to Topeka), and even at a young age, I identified with poor oppressed Cocky in his battle against Sir.
*** Flemco thinks Enya was hardcore. Hah! Hardcore is Herb smashing his trumpet at the end of each and every show, motherfucker! Where do you think Pete Townshend got the idea?
**** For reasons I choose not to explicate, but remember very, very well indeed.
