Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Naked shopping sounds like some sort of horrible anxiety dream.

I think my friend, Mereubu (from the Frank Black forum) was the first to send them to me. They are all really funny. I love the Biscuit Song which was recently posted there. The music is all really nice and the guy who owns the site does a lot of it himself. I wonder if he is single? :wink: Mug's so...

In no particular order - Calistan - Frank Black I Love Your Brain - Frank Black That's Just What You Are - Aimee Mann Fuck and Run - Liz Phair You Know it's Not Easy - Liz Phair Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs One More Hour - Sleater Kinney In This Heart - Sinead I Like You - Morrissey Cigarrettes Will Kill ...

Yeah, all of us on the Frank Black board have been singing that song lately. It's very catchy but I don't know if I really like it.

That's not included in the list?

Was also going to say Liz Phair EXILE IN GUYVILLE and also possibly BLACK LETTER DAYS by Frank Black and the Catholics. Also their self-titled record is really excellent.

BLUE by Joni Mitchell is another great one.

I would add Seabiscuit. What a clunker. Maybe I am just not carefree enough. The constant straining background music drove me CRAZY and the intercut documentary was interesting but interrupted the flow and was obviously for people who never heard of this little thing called "The Depression"...

I just realized I wrote DUMMERS and not DRUMMERS. Oy. Freudian slip much?

I apologize to Mr. Jones!

Well, I was trying to think of who you could have meant, but I was drawing a blank. I couldn't picture you crying over Jack Klugman though. He did have a nice quote about Mr. Randall (which I can't find right now) - about refusing to accept a world with no Tony Randall in it. :( My mom and I were sa...

Even more remarkable when you consider this quote from him: "I figured a lot of drummers were doing things with two hands that could be done with one. What was needed was a flow of rhythm all over the set. I never learned any tricks, anything flashy - like juggling sticks or throwing them up in...

I saw Elvin Jones with his band about four years ago at the Charles Hotel in Cambridge, MA. It's weird b/c I have been thinking about that night a lot lately for other reasons and then I heard he had passed away. I am happy I was able to see him play.

Jack Klugman is still alive. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001430/

I'm actually listening to a very old compilation made for me by Miss selfmademug. Current song is RICK JAMES STYLE by the Lemonheads, next up is SWALLOW MY PRIDE by the Ramones. It's a good work CD.

I have a cat. This is him - http://www.fotolog.net/elroy_is_a_cat

For Russell Crowe movies before he got all bloated - LA Confidential is great too. Also good b/c it's before Kevin Spacey lost his mind to fame.

And I can't believe I forgot Usual Suspects. I LOVE the entire cast of that movie - Kevin Pollack and Stephen Baldwin are both really underated and great.

I'm anti-list right now, but I must say I was blown away by watching Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon for the first time last night, and if I was on Desert Island DVDiscs right now, I would choose that, and then I could learn some Mandarin too. It's stunningly original, mouth-watering to watch, beuat...

Royal Tennenbaums Lost in Translation Say Anything (there was a period of about three years where I watched this once a month) I could think of many for #'s 4 and 5 and I think I am missing some crucial ones - but one in my head is Willy Wonka, mostly for nostalgic reasons. I also love the Princess ...

Yahoo says - Ex-Pogues Singer MacGowan Assaulted in London Pub Wed Apr 21, 8:17 AM ET LONDON (Reuters) - Former Pogues singer Shane MacGowan (news) suffered facial injuries after being assaulted by two men in a central London pub, police sources said Wednesday. MacGowan, 46, was taken to the nearby ...

It's kind of trite, but I would like to be remembered as a good person by whoever wants to remember me! Hopefully someday that will be my kids and grandkids, etc...

Yes, we saw Frank three times together (including the J.P. time) and Liz twice. I saw her the third time in the summer, you were away. I think you forgot the Smoking Popes - didn't you see them twice? And also, Morrissey more than once?

Love,
Your Memory.

Frank Black (& the Catholics) - 6 times
Elvis Costello - 3 times - all with Miss. Mug!
Liz Phair - 3 times

I think those are the only people I've seen multiple times, aside from random local bands.

Maybe it is not true for the UK version of the soundtrack - but in the US the soundtrack contains a hidden track at the end of Bill Murray singing "More Than This" - which was one of my favorite parts of the movie.

Can't wait for the DVD!

out tomorrow!

Show Me Your Tears is the new CD from Frank Black and the catholics. Buy it! I have heard it - it is great! Frank does sad country songs.

and check out http://www.frankblack.net for more info. We also have a little forum over thar....

Sorry it fell through for you, dear! Had to say though that I could hear the concert SO CLEARLY from my house last night (about three miles away, my neighbors and I estimated). When I could hear every word of THUNDER ROAD, I basically started crying, it was so amazing that the sound carried so cryst...

My five greatest things are (in no particular order) Finding Red Hot Chili Peppers music in high school. Until then my music world had been very SMALL and SUBURBAN and hearing them and loving them just changed my mind in a million ways and began my crazy love of music. Moving cross country when I wa...
