We need a "trivial music thoughts that don't warrant a whole thread" topic. I was thinking about the greatest guitar solos that are easy to play. Maybe not greatest, but my favorite. I came up with 3: Just What I Needed by the Cars Keep On Loving You by REO Home Sweet Home by Motley Crue

Ha! I'm not familiar with Peter Pan but you're right. I guess it's a hodge lodge of references. The animated Treasure Planet is underrated.

Really interesting video of a cover made on the spot. A shoe gaze version of Dreams. I think it's pretty good and it's interesting.

Got to see him and the Mats live a few times. RIP

Coming in Feb

Just started ep 3. A treasure planet? Captain "Silvo"? Kind of on the nose.

I think this is a teaser trailer for a teaser trailer coming out tomorrow. Is that Mrs. Maisel as Lois Lane?

I just finished Brother by Ania Ahlborn. This book got a lot of hype in social media. It was okay. I guess I was expecting a lot more. It's got a good plot that keeps you turning pages, the writing is okay but the character development could have been better. It's about a Texas Chainsaw Massacre-type family in Appalachia, told from the perspective of the family members, two of the brothers in particular. One of the brothers isn't particularly jazzed about the family "hobby" of killing and dismembering women, and the other brother is a pure psychopath. A lot of the gore happens off screen, so to speak or is alluded to you so it's not particularly gory although there's some of that. The atmosphere is totally bleak.

Dammit my bad

If there's ever a fire at the Marriott Marquis San Diego, the men will die before they're able to find those stairs.

Looking forward to season 3. From season 2, I thought the actress who played Daphne was incredible. Makes me want to look up her other work.

Broom of the System is a thousand times easier to get through than Infinite Jest. DF Wallace's nonfiction essays are a joy to read but his fiction is just too much, too meta. He did predict that irony would be the downfall of us all.

Had anyone read "We Used to Live Here"? From what I've heard, aside from it being extremely creepy I'm gonna need a flowchart to keep things straight.
