    Peter Gabriel's got a great unique voice and musical personality. I say"musical personality"for lack of a better phrase - point being, I don't know him as a person (except the causes he's into all sound great to me so far!) but the way he expresses himself is very cool. Some solo stuff I know...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    Starting at the 13 second mark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2JGoC7NgHU This song from "The Adventures Of Buckaroo Banzai Across The 8th Dimension!" It really stays with you - and I don't mind! :)

    From reading reviews of Dante's newest, "The Hole", I've found (despite IMDB not listing this fact) that Dick Miller DOES have a cameo in it...just an update, since my last post mentioned that he wasn't in it...so for those of you who read it, I didn't want to misinform you!:D I was happy to...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Jason Siegel (sp?) was on Jimmy Fallon that time talking about doing a Muppet Movie...and how he loves the Muppets...sorry, I didn't read the entire thread, but is he still involved?

    Johnny Bravo coming to DVD

    I like "Whatever Happened To Robot Jones?" too! Though sadly, the show's title is exactly what I must ask these days. Some of the things I liked about it: 1. The original robotic/vocoder voice - no offense to the voice actor that came later, (and was asked to re-dub the original episodes...

    Any Ernst Fans?

    I'm glad the old thread was linked in this one - we had some great posts there! I want to answer a few of them here: Ernest's house in "Goes To Africa" reminds me of Pee Wee's house the most, so I agree about that! And as for the Ultimate Ernest DVD set, it needs "Ernest Goes To Splash...

    Whiter Shade Of Pale - Procol Harum - Harry Dean Stanton

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rG6AQsvgPSwA video for the song (made years after the song was recorded) with Harry Dean Stanton in the lead role - very well done! After I decided to share it, I thought I'd ask the same question a youtuber asked: What's the story about in this video? Maybe a...

    I sent the PM with the email for the song, thanks!:D That was the right thing for you to do, offering the Peter Howell and John Ferndinado album to the person who owned their album that went with it! And if they sound Syd-ish, I shall have to look into 'em! As for the ELP links: On the Karn...

    Oddly enough (or not?) I knew someone with the album Brain Salad Surgery, though I never heard it. And they moved away years ago. I saved the ELP youtube links, thanks! And as for your description of "Knife Edge" - tortured moogs sounds good, because moogs are great, and so is going crazy on...

    Double Standards, anyone?

    Is the Star of David on the flyers the guy gave you because the band is playing Jewish songs? And why was the boss unhappy? Sorry if I'm naive here! Anyway, I agree with the points you've made in this thread, and I think this sums it up: Sneetches are a great way to explain. What a great...

    I shall do that, thanks! Is this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_MnP4vs74s a good example? I realize I did what I just said not to do in my last post about ELP, ha. Looking them up showed me a link on the side to The Soft Machine, who I know played on the same bill with Syd's Floyd, and even...

    That's the thing, many times I've seen albums I know are so so GREAT in a used bin, so I never use an artist's quantity in the used bin as an indicator of their quality! :D "He wore a scarlett tunic a blue/green hood it looked quite good." You described Syd's style quite well: Not childish...

    He directed the original "Little Shop Of Horrors" in the 60's, has made countless movies in his career, and has two films coming to Sci-Fi (Now they call it SyFy? :concern:) Channel, "DinoShark" and "Sharktopus"! Can't wait!:D Plus, Corman included actor Dick Miller in many films, and Joe...

    anybody have this habit?

    Well, I'm not sure if you feel you give more information on the show/character than the person wants to know, but I think most people do that to some degree. We're setting the person up for the part we're going to mention. We want them to understand it, after all, so I think it's a fairly normal...

    YES! Mr. Winters is a comedy, motion picture, tv show, cartoon, tv special, halloween (Disney where he talks to a pumpkin), christmas (Frosty Returns narrator), etc etc etc KING!

    Your comments on Syd were most excellent. I can't argue with any of that! As for the price of "Barrett" on vinyl, that's why I never quite got into the collecting of vinyl...even though I would love to, it'd cost so much. So I've stuck with CDs, but I realize CDs are becoming extinct My...

    *cyber hi-five* Yeah! We should join that Roger Waters fan club called Reg now. Except that I have to save up for the Roger tour! For the record, I love Syd Barrett with or without Floyd, and Roger Waters with or without Floyd. Yes, David Gilmour is an amazing guitarist, but while they made...
