Y’know, the one that’s really depressing and deliberately sloppily played and recorded and was about the deaths of two of his friends.
Y’know, the one a man’d use ta GIT SUM!!!!! buys “truck balls” off Amazon, hangs them from Jeep

Reading through the Prindle comments just now, I found one from the sister of one of the people whose deaths inspired TTN.
Remember that time George Starostin got an angry comment from one of Kerry Livgren’s relatives?

I guess i need to express my views on Danny Whitten-----You see I knew him since the day he was born–I am his only sibling—I have always loved him and Miss him dearly–I still think about him every day—and he died Nov 18th 1972—What a day that was—By the way–i dont know where this comment is going (i hope on the web page)as everyone needs to know THAT DANNY DID NOT DIE FROM HERION—i have the death Cert. to prove it–the only thing in his system was alcohol and dizapam (valium) and that was NOT a good mix–You know i am going to say that Everyone Knows— is the BEST record EVER made----and Neil would not have been half as good with out Dannys backup vocals and great guitar playing—he was self taught and was VERY GOOD–There will just never be that great blend of voices ever again–He is still everywhere—to the ones that play his (now)cds and still listen –and to all the ones that hear I DONT WANNA TALK ABOUT IT– and think of Danny—i thank you—He still lives-----There was just a 1 year play(musical)in London called Tonights The Night–with all songs done by Rod Stewart and I DONT WANNA was in the play and it was a great honor for that to happen–Rod has done that song on 5 cds through the years----so that helps keep the music alive-----------thanks for letting me bend your ear----

BTW, you really had me there for a second with that Bruce Coville/Henry Miller/Gertrude Stein/R. L. Stine stuff below, but then I figured I’d brought up the Duncan Dougal line and the dumb Goosebumps bit where someone finds a moldy sandwich in the dummy’s head around these boards before, so I Googled phrases from the Rosenbaum articles and found that you’d embellished those comparisons yourself. Couldn’t you have waited till April Fools’ Day? You didn’t get AI to write that stuff for you, did you?

If you want to keep it up, now go dig up that angry Rosenbaum Deer Hunter review and embellish it with a comparison between Beverly Cleary and Norman Mailer, I’ll be waiting. Don’t try making up a story about Cleary getting a guy out of jail only to have him go kill again, I already tried that one.

I do still re-read Capn Marvel’s site, BTW. His funniest review was probably Summer In Paradise.
