Alright, it’s not actually gonna be called Pastor of Muppets.
Its gonna be called Shitty Shitty Band Band. That whole Pastor thing was just so arrogant. So full of itself. I think SSBB is good cuz it’s humble, ya know? Like Beck. Remember when he was a loser baby so why don’t you kill him?
Yeah, it’s like that.

Okay, me and Pete are finishing up our vocal and guitar basic tracks for the forthcoming Dandy Warhols album, tentatively titled The Pastor of Muppets. Zia and Fatty will likely be done by the end of the month, then the mixing nightmare followed by mastering. mixedmasteredmarch.

Just got caught in a loop. Couldn’t stop playing this over and over for about a half hour. It really got me somehow.

(2005) When making this “style” of indie realist film there is no margin for errors and one of the many things that make this movie amazing is I think there actually aren’t any. |
 |
(2010) Some fine cinematography but the gratuitous amounts of blood and mutilation make it only slightly more disgusting than the dialogue and lack of authenticity in detail make it ridiculous. |

Ok, look what I found. Here’s a picture of the Pillars of the Earth author. Uncanny. I think I really nailed it.

This is what I read over the holiday season. I just found out there’s some kind of mini-series of it and that makes perfect sense.
“Soap opera.” I stewed for weeks over how to describe it and finally (after giving up almost a month ago) those two words really nail it for me. Ironically this book came into my life soon after the Thomas Hardy debacle and I say ironic because if I were to put that name before the two aforementioned words it would describe this book even better. It seemed to me that Ken Follett was a depressed gay hairdresser who had read every Hardy novel between high school and college so when he cut hair he would tell the ladies Thomas Hardy stories.
Judging from “Pillars” though, he clearly had mixed up the characters and plots so badly that by the time Bev or Jan or whomever urged him to write his own book he was happily free of any real plagiaristic details.
Well the book is a real fun read if you don’t mind cheap and catty set in a rich historical tapestry in which case you might also try “I, Claudius”.

The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call – New Orleans (2009) Okay, so if cops just smoked more crack they could fix everything, right? |

(2008) Wow, this is one of the worst after school specials I’ve ever seen (hammy writing, flagrant overacting etc.), yet I must’ve been asked about thirty times if I’d seen it. |
 |
(1984) who woulda guessed that this movie was actually really funny? |

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2009) Whoa, for a second there I thought Agatha Christie was alive and well and writing under a Swedish pseudonym and oh, watching way too much Law & Order SVU. |

(1964) In spite of Peter O’Toole’s over-the-top performance, this movie somehow manages to still be totally boring. |
