Bulletin Board of Bad Behavior

Oh yeah McC about the tennis - I love watching Venus in Furs...saw her beat some Romanian the other day who simply could not compete in either coolheadedness or attractiveness. Venus is American, isn't she?

Wow you guys wrote a lot...I got on here about 24 hours ago and didn't see a thing. Weird. Anyway, Ooh, all this talk of trying to do the healthy things at the same time as the unhealthy things is making me a little queasy. I've had times when I've been one way, and times when I've been the other, b...

Ooh- congrats on your wedding... Thanks to your kick-in-the-pants post in another section, I've made a commitment to myself to visit "the Motherland" (what I call the U.K.) next summer. There have been some barriers to keep me from leaving here in the past few years but since they're no lo...

Gee, but I feel left out. I wish I'd known what you guys were doing on the 3rd. I would have been able to be there and everything. McC, you could have introduced me to Martino! Oh well, I guess we said our goodbyes, but here's another one, goodbye McC! You better come back or I'll hunt your ass down...

I understand you are sorry for what you wrote, ooh, and certainly hangovers are no fun (I've had more than my usual share lately) but since you touched a nerve here I will give my side of the story. Remember...this is BUSH's war. It's not MY war because I am in America. It's not even Congress' war y...

Ah ha! So it's a new job then that sends McC to the desert. I see now. I really did like that film The Jazz Singer w/Neil. Shame, too cause everyone else seemed to shun it. I don't think it got very good reviews did it? I don't even remember many people in the theater when I saw it. (oh god I must h...

About Joy Division, and 24 Hour Party People. You know the scene where Ian Curtis has hung himself, and there's a chicken dancing on the T.V. to this ridiculous music? I found out the reason for that because I recently rented the movie Stroscek (directed by Werner Herzog) which I've known for years ...

Well, I was always kindof put off by their name, wish I knew what they sounded like. My work schedule doesn't allow me the luxury of going to free instores, or having any kind of life at all, really. But I am indeed about to go to school finally for an accounting degree, the financial aid did finall...

Best new thing since sliced bread in the music department in my opinion is Death By Chocolate's CD "Zap The World". Not out of place in a Belle & Sebastian fan's collection. Charming, humorous, very 60's hoppy boppy pop. Not a thing rock and roll about it. Infact, B&S look like RnR...

Dead Kennedys, absofuckinlutely. The first time I heard them on the radio in like '85 I thought his voice was so funny. It was the song "We've Got A Bigger Problem Now" from In God We Trust, where the music gets all quiet and then BLAM...it was just a hilarious song, particularly to a fire...

Very cool, I'll be there and thank god I don't
have to work.

I disagree. I really liked the film. Being a Factory records nut/collector since I was about 14, and visiting Manchester/the Hacienda in 1990, it just felt like a hell of a lot of my life was up on that screen. Yeah, it would be nice to know more about Ian I suppose...but what I have read about him ...

I'm big on Lou, too. Infact we share a birthday. My only complaint about the Quine tapes is I think some of the tracks go on too long, but that said, my fave song on it is 17 minutes long! It's called "Follow The Leader". How they manage to keep that groove going for that long without me g...

Well, Matt! I wondered where you were... Good to hear you're basically having fun up there. Thanks for sharing what's going on in such good detail...makes it easy to picture everything. I know what it's like to be in the midst of a huge bunch of over-60 tourists...when I visited the Butchart Gardens...

Kyle - not long after I had read what you wrote about Phil Gramm's son I stumbled upon this band Aden from D.C. on TeenBeat records who are apparently fronted by Jeff Gramm. They are playing here in Seattle soon. I haven't heard them yet, but my friend is going to the show and I probably will too. I...
