My goodness Sigi, this is fun :) look how handsome they look. So young. I'm a sucker for a guy in a feather boa.

I don't like the egotism later in the song, but my goodness I like the amphetamine guitars at the beginning. We live in an area supposedly lashed by ice, but no luck at my place. I miss feeling reasonable. I do try to practice detachment. The bright side is it won't last forever. Rod was a gravedigger at one point?

The (hate to use the word) sexism was truly frightful. Here's some more, with a bit of that boa thing.

He is talking about scoring a f*ck, no? Nowadays songs start with lines like 'Currency, currency, everyone is held hostage'. On the bright side this reminds me of Soviet films (threat everywhere, people reasonable), which I could at least watch with respect.

I like the way he reads the words from a pice of paper.

Have you noticed how responsible young people are today? It's not a good sign; it means things feel dangerous.
I really like this

There is a great Keith Richards doco on Netflix, a lot of it about Chicago Blues.

That nailed it for me. The English translation from the Swedish is there to be read, such good words. I saw them here, in a pretty small venue.

From the BJM?
Anton never said a word.
They did another tour here just recently, even in NZ.
The crowd looked high as kites.

>the controversial 'joke'
How controversial? Can you repeat it here?
Did you see"Dig" (I think it was)? My son and I enjoyed it years ago.

The line I best remember for its bitchiness was something like.......
We all own our own houses and cars and we don't have habits. (They can't have had girlfriends. I don't know what else they had.) He might have said 'We are not in jail'.
So my sympathies were with Anton rather than the Dandy's (is this a case for apostrophe man?), but that is how the film was structured.

Interesting. I hadn't realized what provoked his tirade.

I never felt he particularly liked us (the audience), but I don't mind performers who ignore us. Better than fake ingratiating.
There was a Dylan concert here years ago. He never said a word. The full moon lit up a pelican as it flew low across the sky and everyone cheered.
Rape jokes and the reaction to them are somewhat new. People used to put it differently. I have always been nervous of any gender specific statements that might include me....'I wouldn't be a member of any club that would have me.' Which might be why I want to belong so much.

I really thought I listened to an album by Brian Eno and Michael Rother once (not Harmonia), but I was never able to find it again.
This is nice

I thought you might like this. This channel puts movie clips to music, which is the thing now, but this person does it so well, with such melancholy. Plus, they really know their film.
Neither here nor there. It's almost the 4th here. Hip hip.
