inspired by a lengthy convo with tom last night and my own creeping dementia, i made that quote here. and i mean it. death to ranking! death to lists!

and yes i'm well aware of the irony of me having started one or two of those lists. forgive me father, for i have sinned. etc.

and pleez, no one take this as any sort of attack or calling you out. i have read everyone's lists with anticipation, or excitement, or bizarre trainwreck facination, from those ilm song lists to rolling stones. i do think a sort of critical mass has been reached, however, and we might want to get on to talking about music in other ways for the time being.

does that mean you rank whether or not the eggs are more important to purchase than the milk, andy?

The video for that and the one for the Queen cover -- two of the greatest ever made, no question.

The first member of my death camp will be that keyboard player from the Doors. First person to join my cult wins his head on a plate.

Ray Manzarek's appearing at a booksigning at Borders in Glendale next week, Ronan. I'll see what I can do.

Lists: I'd be a lot less weary of them if I had a DSL line at home and could download all this shit. What is this Strokes of Genius record everyone's raving about?

Re: Ray Manzareks Severed Coconut Noggin
Naaaah. The market for Manzarek meat is very, very slow.
But if you throw in Vanilla Ice's left eyebrow or Busta Rhymes two front teeth, I'm might be interested in joining up.

Ronan: Irrelevant side-issue...are you actually Ronan the Accuser, the Chief Ejudicator of the Kree Empire?
