The Dresden Dolls are from Boston. I seem to remember another Buffista from somewhere-that-wasn't-Boston also convinced that they were local to their area.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
At least a couple folks I know from Tribe.net have toured with them, managed tours, etc. So what's their deal? Goth?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Unfortunately, I seem to be on everyone's nitwit filter.
Or rather, I remember somebody here had an opinion about it but was too lazy to search for it.

Joe, I just emailed you. You might need to fish it out of your spam filter.
Spidra, I think there might be some Dresden Dolls up at Buffistarawk. I like them very much. "Coin Operated Boy" seems to be their best loved song, though I expect opinions will vary. You can hear a live version of that song at their website.

Thanks, Jon. I'd probably like them. Although I'm just stupid enough to be balky about it because of how hip they are among certain circles here. Heh.

The Dresden Dolls are a lot of fun. I need to go pick up the new CD.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
"Coin Operated Boy" seems to be their best loved song, though I expect opinions will vary.
I'm very fond of "Good Day" the lead track off the first album (with the great kiss-off line "I'd like to do more than survive, I'd like to rub it in your face!") and "Gravity", and I'd be hard pressed to come up with a scarier psycho-chick song than "Missed Me."
I really need to get around to listening to the new disc. My listening habits have gotten appalling.

from a cow-orker:
I've been trying to find out what song/band it is in The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco during the scene where it shows the brothers wrestling....some fun flamenco-style music. I've checked the few boards I know of and nobody knows the origin of said music. Any chance you might or know of a place I don't to search for that info?
Can anyone help?
