If you two don't kiss and make up, I'll come over there and make you.
And you won't like it.
Seriously, this is Beefheart Week, not some chicken**** lounge-thread.
I took time off work for this. I bought a new tie to wear while writing the reviews.

Everyone's still going with it, don't worry. I'll remember not to make jokes in TH's threads anymore. I guess I'll take Mirror Man as well.

OccultHawk better do a good job with TMR. I might end up adding to your review if I'm not pleased.

God-****ing-damn you! That's why I asked were you serious? Why can't you answer a simple question, you know, simply?

Right then: let's go again. How many albums are left? Five?

Oh, four I see. Okay. Getting there.

Frown, you can make jokes: I'm not super serious. But sometimes you just rub me up the wrong way for the sake of it, I know. I did ask and you said you were serious so I got upset. I'm over it now. At least when I'm joking people know, even if my jokes are bad, as they invariably are.

Edit: who's doing the logo for this thing?

The ambiguity makes it funny for me. It's a very self centered form of humour.

There are four left, I just offered to take Mirror Man.

kay, well just take into account that your humour is hard for me to pin down, so think about that before making an oblique joke and then rolling your eyes at me because I didn't get it.

It takes fortitude to tackle the biggest daddy of them all. I don't want any maggots compromising the foundation.

Oriphiel

I'll take Strictly Personal, if it's still open.

Trollheart

It is. I'll mark you up. That leaves three to be accounted for, I believe...

I want you to listen to (Shiny Beast) Bat Chain Puller.

Also TH needs to change the Bat Chain Puller (1976) date to 2012. Even though it was recorded around that time, there were conflicts in releasing that album and for years there were several different bootlegs floating around. In 2012 Barfko Swill released the official version. It'd help cut down on conflicting track lists if we went with that one.
