The Nurse Who Loved Me is one of my favorites. I hesitate to say that I own 4 copies of Fantastic Planet The used record stores around here have been selling them for $2.95!

This is a great band that isn't too well known. Their songs are smart, moody, understated and their musicianship is high level. The new album should be out soon. Check them out if you can.

The guitar player comes from a band called 'Failure' who had an amazing track called 'The Nurse Who Loved Me'. (here is a not so great live version - http://www.videosift.com/video/The-Nurse-Who-Loved-Me-Failure - save it if you like.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.

What an odd coincidence, though - such is fame these days, eh?

I may have met that same homeless guy. I flew in to Cleveland for a Do Make Say Think/Broken Social Scene (both from Toronto) show and a guy asked us that in downtown Cleveland. Maybe just a popular attention grabber. He ended up getting some really good cajun catfish and pizza leftovers out of us.

Q: What is the best nation in the world?

A: A donation


This beggar/homeless guy in Cleveland taught me that one - we had a good laugh because we were, of course, visiting from Canada, so we weren't sure how to respond to the question until he delivered the kicker.

brain, you have trifled with forces you can barely comprehend. Forces that have created beaver tails AND poutine.

Really!?! I have kind of mixed emotions about that, because Jon Brion has done some brilliant work in PTA's previous films, yet I love Radiohead and JG. I wonder what happened? First Jon Brion gets his version of Fiona Apple's album (unfairly and wrongly) dumped, and now this.

...not to mention jonny greenwood from radiohead did the score!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

My point was more that because the belief systems on the coasts and the middle are so different- a "one size fits all" federal government doesn't work. A "loose confederation" is more appropriate. We can't avoid the fact that the majority of Kansas voter want ID in the classroom, that's their problem - not Oregon's.

...IMHO this is not a bad thing. The disharmony between the coastal states and "Jesustan" in the middle, highlights that the US is made up of regions where the majority have very little in common with each other.

Kansas wants to teach Intelligent Design in the classroom? OK, fine. Thank Darwin, I'm from the Republic of California.


no, we need a federal government that keeps kansas from doing this kind of thing. i'm from iowa and was very upset that our highschool(in 2000 mind you)let christian church youth ministers in to eat lunch with the students and hand out free snacks to people that would sit with them. there's no reason religion belongs in our schools. students have the right to their own beleifs, but religion should be taught in a classical lit class and not as a science. the midwest needs some outer influence to keep it from being absorbed into the religious abyss, for the sake of the minority that can't abandon their homes for a coast (though most want too ).
