As a young Zep fan in the early 90s, I wondered what the guys were up to and found Page surprisingly boring-basically doing the same old stuff, but now with the guy from Whitesnake.
Jones, on the other hand, was busy terrorizing people with Diamanda Galas.

I recall reading a description of the Pistols as “a boy band with safety pins”, and it doesn’t seem far off.

BTW, if you’ve never heard it, Henry Rollins has a very funny story about trying to ‘compete’ with Iggy during that time period.

I first saw Iggy in the mid 90’s and he was, and remains, the high water mark for a rock and roll frontman.
End of the show, the house lights come up and he just prowls the stage and stares out at the crowd with those shockingly blue eyes, like a caged animal. Thrilling and terrifying.

On the one hand, this feels like just the latest version of “rope in the suckers” that brought us 3D and smell-o-vision- on the other hand, describing film editing as “cutting back and forth between characters due to framing limitations” is pure Philistinism.

In the early 70’s after a couple of years in the States and getting slightly hippie-fied, My father returned to his small town in Greece and one of the local cops dragged him into the town square for a haircut

I respond it’s for the movie playing tonight.
“Oh, yeah, which one?”
I respond, “The Last Temptation of Christ”
“Oh… You know, he dies at the end.”
I smile.

At one point in line I’m standing in front of a bar with a large open window. The window has seating looking out into the street and there’s a man sitting there with a drink and a small bowl of nuts.
The line had stalled a bit, and he starts chatting me up- asks me what the line is for.

(1/x) Many years ago, I went to a screening of Last Temptation at the Castro Theatre in SF.
As it doesn’t (or at least didn’t at the time) get screened much, the line to get into the theatre was quite long and snaked down the block past several storefronts and bars.

Sir, speaking of clergy, a certain Archbishop just celebrated his 75th birthday. How long do you think it will be before a successor is named?
