Ah, Halloween. This song reminds me of Michael Myers….
I think y’all were referring to will.i.am?
Or was that Shakespeare?
Quien sabe….

Blue Monday and Bizarre Love Triangle - New Order

Depends on the musician(s). In this case, I was referring to rock stars specifically. This is how the category of “nostalgia” or “reunion touring” came into being. Rock and roll used to be mostly a young man’s game (there are a few exceptions). Now, a lot of older bands retire and then reverse that ...

Hmm. It seems that there are a lot of “older” rock stars on tour these days. Is there a dearth of talent in the younger generations or are older generations just hogging space and time? Kinda like boxers who refuse to quit boxing until they’re damn well dead?

Looks more like something from a text on anatomy?

Susanne let the ether fall…

Actually, writing “paper” letters is quite an art. I’ve seen some great calligraphy that no computer could ever match.

Getting older isn’t the problem, really. Making old age work for you, is.

Very clever.
There’s a new movie out called, “After Death.”
I guess this topic is establishing its own genre.

Five years holiday would make him about what, 70?

Losing a guitarist in just that way had to be tough. Fortunately, Ben and Kai work together, so it was easy to close the gap. In gigs since the time Dylan left, the band seems more relaxed and content.

Yes, indeed.

The “Halloween” theme (1978) has the same persistence that the “Jaws” one (1975) does. You hear it, and you know exactly what it means, no explanation needed. John Carpenter said that there wasn’t much of a budget for a soundtrack. In this case, that was a very good thing.

The goth subculture will always exist in one form or another, so it’ll just go along its merry way, like all others. What’s interesting, though, is that Eldritch said something in an earlier interview about creating a “United States of Europe,” a kind of federalist approach not currently on the dock...

Suzanne/Susanne was a song included on the album, Event Horizon, if I’m not mistaken.
It’s as catchy as it is beautiful.

It’s hard to write beyond the range of the moment.

Hey copper, you sure know your chemistry.
Spent a little time with the chemist?

We will, we will, rock you.
Mob psychology at its finest.

“Suspension of disbelief.
It teaches you to lie.”

My galaxy, although far, far away, (roughly 2.5 million light years), is doing just fine at the moment, thank you. Definitely a place to “boldly go where no one has gone before.” The Star Trek movie franchise is Roddenberry’s gift to Hollywood. He first invented Star Trek as a kid, sitting in a card...

Perhaps it’s the royal “we”? I mean, after all, “von”… but I digress. If he is seriously ill, or even just a bit under the weather, I sincerely hope he feels much improved soon. It’s no fun being sick.

It’s quite simple, really. If Von says he’s gay, then he is. If he says he’s not, then he’s not. If he doesn’t say anything, then nobody the hell knows. People have said that Martin Gore of Depeche Mode once wore a dress onstage, so that means he’s gay, and that he doesn’t even like women. Wrong. It...

Blackrose, sometimes lyrics have a way of circling back and biting you in the a**…

Meatloaf’s version of “More” feels like half-measures and spare parts, at least to me. Tinny and lacking power. And if you’re gonna dance, you’ll need all the bombast that you can’t get to. Have you ever noticed how people get crazy at concerts, and then later, (when they’re chillin’) they can pract...

Oh, but then computers (with or w/o AI capability) only do what the humans tell them to do.
