You could damn a pagan baby to eternal hellfire.

When everything's Wonder Bread, everything's white bread. Caramel DeLites? Damn Nancy, I guess those Thin Mints are going in the freezer until after Lent.

I expect young Paul Hewson will become a Yank soon so he'll be available to take on the solipsistic Savior role when Ralph f**ing Nader gives up his Holy Ghost. I mean, the guy named <i>himself</i> Vox Bono, which, but for the grace of God would probably have been Vox Populi. Brian, Sting is a Francis of Assisi model of humility compared with Bono.

The Boss and the Detroit Boss, but also Tom Waits an REM. When she picked me up at the airport recently, <i>Making Plans for Nigel</i> came on the CD player when she started the car. Good taste for 27. She did go through a Backstreet Boys phase when she was about eight, but she met them backstage and decided they were obnoxious.

Eddie Vedder and Jeff Ament and Stone Gossard are the real deal MichaelJ - gotta agree about Sting and the big ego; aside from that, Pearl Jam, baby!

Eddie Vedder and Jeff Ament and Stone Gossard are the real deal

Nice, nice very nice. And the moon is racing through some impossibly German city to save some boneheaded nordic lover from his idiotic romantic self. Bokonon knows. It's not for everyone to know. As my own movie critic, I know, matt Damon makes a great spy, but most especially with Franka. There are Bond Girls and there are exceptionally intelligent women caught up in spy plots. And who's responsible for the music on <i>Darkside of the Moon</i>? Roger Waters would have the world believe he made it all up. He should be happy Sting and Bono came along so he's maybe not the biggest unfounded egoist. The synth parts are stolen in large part from Hawkwind. But the guitars are entirely originally Gilmour, Sid's true friend and companion. And therein lies the rub that chaos Roger Waters' arse. So Nancy is Franka Potente and Tom Tykwer at the same time.

I've seen Roger Waters on all of his tours from 1984 forward. Must see shows. Big Yes fan as well. My siblings are 10 years older than I am so I grew up listening to their music. Nothing today compares. I do have an unhealthy obsession with all things Stevie Nicks. Again, my wife rolls her eyes. Hope you guys are having fun in the Fort.

I always hopped a train or fired up my 1969 VW Microbus every time Tom Waits came within 200 miles.I saw him at Chicago Steppenwolf and Chicago Theater. The only other events I used to skip work for were Bruce Springsteen and CSN. I believe David Crosby is God. They used to come to Pine Knob in Clarkston , MI . I've been all over the map to go see Bruce. Anybody here ever see The Dead when , obviously, Jerry was still with us? Damndest caravan I ever was a part of...but I was not a Dead Head...could not afford plane tix to The Pyramids and I always felt funny wearing a dress like those Dead Head dudes wore.
