2001-12-30 My 2001 list for Tom the HairMaster Who Asked-In no particular order, category, year (some of it is pretty old but I just got to it), or correct spelling. Just stuff I liked in 2001 and now remember as I write this: Adult Swim Chocolategenius � Godmusic Beulah � The Coast is Never Clear Basement Jaxx - Rooty The Lord of the Rings books Wilco - live show and unreleased album The Shins � Oh Inverted World My bicycle Destroyer � Streethawk, a Seduction Ghost World In the Mood For Love The Seven Samurai (critareon dvd edition) � Akira Kurasawa (probally the best movie I�ve seen this year. Have you seen this? Incredible. He really should of made the Lord of the Rings. Makes almost all adventure movies pale by comparison.) O� Brother Where Are Thou � Cohen Bro. Tamales ( from that place in Old Irving Park the name I can�t remember. But it was like heaven on a plate) char sui Fast Food Nation Comfort Me With Apples � Ruth Reichl My Heated Mattress Pad Nelly � (the single Ride Wit Me. It�s one of the one songs on popular radio that they played a lot and I liked a lot. It�s such a weird pop song, with that great hook that�s suppose to be boastful yet sounds melancholy, the way great pop hooks should)I'd call it my guilty pleasure but who am I kidding? I don't feel guilty. Montreal the beautiful and tasty city (I�d go back just for another donut) Tom�s Town � at http://www.uicradio.ws/schedule.html Uncle Jeff - "Rock of Ages: Roots, Stems, and Seeds" at http://www.uicradio.ws/schedule.html Wait Wait Don�t Tell Me Le Tigre � Feminist Sweepstakes Revolutionary Road � Richard Yates Cold Comfort Farm � Stella Gibbons Outkast - stankonia Desperate Characthers � Paula Fox Pam�s idea/wish of her being reincarnated as Pam Anderson and Kid Rock�s baby. Atheists in foxholes My furry slippers � Target The Delgados � the Great Eastern Anne Heche interviews Maggie Chung perched on the edge of a chair in the Mood For Love Mullholand Drive � David Lynch Naomi Watts as a plucky Nancy Drew of sorts in the first half of Mullholand Drive. Together �Lucas Moodysson. This was the Swedish movie about living in a commune in the 70�s. Undeclared Grounded for Life Carter Beats the Devil � Glen David Gould Tina Fey (of course) Langley Schools Music Project � Innocence and Despair www.smallstoriesonline.com Eightball issue 22 by Daniel Clowes. And last but not least, the pot of Portuguese bean soup I�m warming up. Um, I guess it�s a list like most others. I think I�d rather read other people�s lists than make my own. Besides, I�ve forgotten more than I�ve remembered I think. previous next |
