Is this from The Shining soundtrack?

You take a Long Walk on A Short Pier, not off it.

It sounded like whatever Wendy Carlos was riffing on for said OST.

It's not so bad this.

I like the way that the two separate 'melodies' don't match up, but also don't completely diverge into needless cacaphony.

Oh, right, it's Berlioz.

Thanks for the heads up whateveryounameis.

It is over.

There was no point to its existence.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

Over.

I shall give it one star.

I think you had to be there.

I saw a group the other day, well, I went to see the support act, but the main group, Main, were like, it's hard to describe, 3rd on the bill to a Mogwai gig in 1997, Like Hovercraft or another of the millions of formulaic Post Rockers, not in itself a bad thing, but so, so tired…

I went home early, and I never do that.

This was 3rd on a bill to a gone off by 1982 Gang of Four and Talking Heads gig.

I thought it were OK.

An uncommon/common slice of Midwestern college town art-rock.

All the kids who didn't go to prom, who dropped out but never left AA and then formed a band and played for the kids who didn't go to prom and then dropped out but never left AA.

You know, they said so.

Gary Numan in 1984 on the Leo Sayer show sounded like the future in comparison.
