Hey Hec - what did you think of the last Venture Bros. ? Um, the musician-related stuff in particular....

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.
Pictures, hec. If you demand them from us, we demand them from you!

It was excellent. Loved how they didn't just have Iggy on the show, but really worked in details of his history with Bowie. Plus fun lyrical shoutouts. Best line was Number 24 (?) calling 21 a poseur because he only had Changes instead of Station to Station.

Jayzus, I have a hard enough time getting pictures of my far-cuter daughter online. Maybe Juliana can shoot me with her cell phone when we have breakfast at Zazie this Saturday. I'll have a pumpkin pancake for you, SA!

Heh.
I think I was content to own Changes 1 and Changes 2 for a few months (as a college freshperson) before I started buying Bowie albums left and right.
I also loved the Venture Brothers. I didn't get that the one guy was Iggy in the previous week, but loved the idea of Klaus Nomi as muscle.

I'm sure you will be able to hear my tears of envy plinking onto my computer keyboard from half a world away!
Opinions, please?
Of the following bands, what would you go see/what combination would you go see?
M. Ward (16 euro), We Are Scientists (22 Euro), Gomez (31 euro), TV On the Radio (17 euro)
I still hold out hope that one Sufjan ticket will be released before the show. I have no such hope for Ryan Adams.
TV on the Radio is pretty great.
Several people in my office whose opinions I trust are mad for Gomez.
I've seen Gomez play live at Amoeba and they were excellent live. Not hopping around make show excellent - just good musicians with a warm, layered sound.
