(and changed the setlist so they didn't even play exactly the *same* hits each night. although the last three songs of the encore stayed the same, ending with All My Friends, oh noes)

"people who don't have credit card x were excluded from three of the gigs in my city" sounds like a reasonable charge of breadheadism until you check and see they played TWELVE SHOWS IN A ROW in his city

Yesterday I came across him complaining in 2012, a full decade after his previous comic book*, that the reason comic stores don't order his comics every month is that they're afraid of getting arrested.
*Fifteen years after the previous.

Jouanou and Keith Gordon were both alums of the TV version of Wild Palms, which also had a K. Bigelow ep and was sold on the name of executive prod Oliver Stone. (It took writer Bruce Wagner taking another swing at adaptation to get closer to the comic, though, with Cronenberg in 2014.)

Fallen Angels (noir adap anthology series) had eps directed by Soderbergh, Cuarón, Bogdanovich, Michael Lehmann, John Dahl (an omen!), Agnieszka Holland, Phil Jouannou... and Tom Hanks, Kiefer Sutherland and Tom Cruise. (Fewer big names writing, but Scott Frank and Donald Westlake in there.)

It's "Losing My Mind" from Sondheim's Follies, 1971. Though perhaps he knows it from the Liza Minelli / Pet Shop Boys 1989 version. (Or far more likely, it's a sideways nod to The Last Of Sheila, one of Johnson's most-cited influences on Knives.)

James was public about it repeatedly, and has been frequently denounced and disparaged by Glin in the last couple of years (eg of the latter iirc, calling him Brian Butterfield's social media manager). I'm sure it's James he was referring to in his torygraph cry-ed.

My first viewing was a sold-out screening at the Vista and the crowd were ROARING. It wouldn't be wrong to call it a thriller, it isn't *wrong* to call it a comedy.

He has, conversely, been publicly fretting about the changing times making it harder for him to have confidence that he can publish his work since at least September 1969.

Crumb's last graphic novel (his second ever, and the first in over 40 years) came out three years into Me Too, he hasn't missed an issue of Mineshaft in 25 years, and he's published shorts elsewhere in that time, too. (1/2)
