Went to see Blue Man Group last night. I enjoyed it a lot, which was a nice surprise, since I really only went to see Venus Hum open for them. The crowd was a bit of a letdown, though. There were people talking really loud behind me during V.H.'s set and pretty much throughout the main show. Not music fans, I'm guessing.
In any case, the show was pretty damn fun despite the annoying audience. My only other disappointment was that I got coralled out the door in the chaos that came about after the show in the obviously-not-designed-with-human-factors-in-mind A.J. Palumbo Center. Wasn't able to get back inside to buy a Venus Hum shirt. Just checked their website and there's none there either. Anyone have any idea where I might oreder one?

thanks for the post last week. I'm SO jealous that you got to see the Flaming Lips play with Beck - that would've been awesome! I've actually never seen either of them live... sigh... one day perhaps. I DID just get to go see the Red HOt CHili Peppers,though, so that was cool!
I'm glad you like Courtney Crumrin and Hellboy
Thanks again for the flattery of calling me a writer. I mostly see myself as a voracious reader, who dabbles with the written word. I'm so glad that you seem to enjoy my silly scribblings.
I completely share your view on comics. The combination of stunning art and intriguing stories seems to somehow get overlooked by the "established" literary community.
Let's see . . . interesting books. I have quite a few signed first editions of Gaiman stuff, lots of books on fairy tales and mythology, religious texts, books on decontructing religious texts, an sprinkling of poetry and philosophy, and some gorgeous art books (I have a fondness for most anything published by Taschen or Paper Tiger. Mmmmmmm . . . pretty pictures.) What about you?
Hope you had a very coolie All Hallows Eve.
