Big hair, both on the head and on the chin. ZZTop is dressin' sharp for the TOTHK.

I certainly go crazy for sharp-dressed men.

BOS to TFF's original "Mad World."  I actually think Gary Jules improved on it by turning it into a ballad, but this is still great to hear.

November '83 was quite depressing: I saw Testament in a theater and a week later The Day After on TV.

BOS2 TFF's orig "Mad World".

High...high-high-high-high-H-I-I-I-I-G-H!!!!

BOS1, THeads, Swamp.

Saw them perform this at the SF Civic (now Bill Graham Civic) about a year before Speaking In Tongues came out. Much grittier than what they'd done before.

TANC Mad World: finally saw Donnie Darko on Saturday. Two thumbs up. And VHM for the song.

did you see the orig or the "director's cut"? I've heard the latter is a disappointment; but that given Richard Kelly's output since, that's not surprising.

hey urth, great avatar. Love that album.  Wiki confirms that the other Faces played on (I Know I'm) Losing You.  
Will you be in SF on Nov 12th by any chance?  Ray Davies will be at the Warfield!

I didn't figure it would be. Who on earth poses Gere as a love interest for Swank? The Gere/dog flick looks better.

Sweet, my favorite year!  8)

VHM to TFF. (Only reason it's not a BOS is because I like Pale Shelter so much better.)

and LOL @ Pat Benatar.  Oh well, it had to happen sometime.

Pretty good tune, though it does kind of remind me of the Rutles, not that there's anything wrong with that.
