Sorry. No data so far.
This week it is going to get a bit heavy, but sometimes heavy is good. To go along with each track, I wrote a short blurb as a companion. When you are ready, press play and read along. Take a break and wait for the song to finish before moving down to the next entry. [...]
Sometimes artists slip through the cracks. Detroit in the late 60’s was a boom town for music. Motown had affirmatively earned the title of Hitsville, and the burgeoning rock scene (The Stooges, MC5, Ted Nugent) was in its most raw and primordial. One side, the Goliath of African American culture and the other a nebula [...]
Jim Henson is a genius. A latter day Kafka who figured out as well as anyone how to speak clearly and loudly his personal subversion using the voice and medium of a dominant culture to do it.

In Fucking Bruges!?! My wife has been there, and that is the only reason I know it is in Belgium. The movie garnered a fist full of ‘Best Screenplay‘ nominations, including an Oscar nod. And it is… both set in Belgium and well written. We get the gist pretty quick, two Brit mob killers are [...]
I love the concept. Coming from the greek for alteration, parallax refers to using multiple points of view to determine distance. It doesn’t take much twisting to say another definition would be the use of altered states as depth perception. So, I dig the term, but I had no idea what the movie was about. [...]
From behind I hear,“If you’re not here, you don’t have youtube.” Fortunately I do, and I brought along an extra ‘power up’ because of it. I’m standing right at the soundboard barricade in the middle of the tent. Hyde from that 70’s show is in there with extra festival workers. The Cure is playing in [...]
Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the franchise Star Trek; it’s continuing mission to seek out lucrative licensing opportunities. To blandly go where there has been a comfortable encampment for decades!
