Kiss of Death

By -
Okay folks, you’ve heard about #Whamageddon and #littledrummerboychallenge. Now, there’s a brand new Christmas song avoidance game: “Kiss of Death”! The object is to avoid hearing “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus”. The rules: 1. Begins 12:00:01 December 15 local time, and ends 12:00:01 December 25. The start date is deliberately later so those perishing early in other games still have something to play.  2. Cover versions count. The Jackson 5 version is the most common, but if you recognize the song in any version, you are slain.  3. No malicious elimination: playing the song deliberately to elimate others negates its deadly power. #kissofdeath

Bob Dylan - Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour - Oakland, Fox Theater, June 11, 2022

By -
 As usual I splatter my thoughts in no particular order: The whole darn show, recorded from within someone’s phone lock bag:  https://youtu.be/nwK8kAVNrrI Better recording here:  https://youtu.be/wrrPZU_-jjA  (this one appears to have been removed) A recording of the previous night:  https://youtu.be/P-yNR855s3g    I loved the show. My attention was fixed the whole time. Oh my God they ended with a cover of Grateful Dead's "Friend of the Devil" which was amazing. (Better recording:  https://youtu.be/YZj3pjskjPU  Bootleg recording, from same source as above:  https://youtu.be/TmNBhpQtqz8 ) From my post on Expecting Rain :  Oh My God, they closed with "Friend of the Devil" on the June 11th Oakland show! Crowd went berserk! The version was absolutely beautiful, one of the best sounding songs of the evening. I was stunned. I was expecting "Every Grain of Sand" (and now I want to hear that live), because I'd read the set lists and I knew...

Thoughts on "Dune" 2021 Movie

By -
 I don't like writing proper reviews; I generally just like to put down my thoughts: Preamble stuff: I'm coming from the perspective of someone who read the books, but a long time ago. I probably read the original Dune twice, once when I was a kid and once again as a young adult. I've seen the David Lynch movie, but not the miniseries that came out in the early 2000s. I saw it at home on HBO Max. We have a 65" HD TV and a sound bar, so we can have a relatively cinematic experience at home, but it's not like a theater. This does seem to be something where you want as big a picture and as powerful a sound system as you can have. Opinions: I like it overall. It feels big. It looks beautiful. It aspires to a tradition of grand cinema in a way that a lot of things these days don't even try for. The Bene Gesserit are pretty spooky, which is good. The Guild Navigators weren't as creepy: they just looked like people in "Among Us" suits full of orange gas...
