Guest #1 December 12, 2002 Yes, I'm listening to it again...Laurie Anderson is da bomb. "You know...I think we should build some mountains here...otherwise, what are the characters going to fall off of?" "Here's a man who lives a life of danger... Everywhere he goes...he stays...a stranger. 'Howdy, stranger...mind if I smoke?' And he said-- 'Every man, every man for himself'. All in favor, say "Aye"."

quade 4 #5 December 12, 2002 I'm a HUGE Laurie Anderson fan. I have her complete works at home. I absolutely love her stories; North Pole, Ugly One with the Jewels, Ouiji Board . . . fantastic stuff. She's been a big influence in my short story writing.

narcimund 0 #6 December 12, 2002 I saw her perform twice. Amazing! What a showman. First Class Citizen Twice Over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest #7 December 12, 2002 She set the bar so high with Big Science that I was really disappointed with her later works (although Strange Angels was okay). A lot of people pooh-pooh her, but they don't realize that like Brian Eno, she was at least a decade ahead of her time. I've been listening to Big Science for over ten years now, and I am still not tired of it."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

quade 4 #8 December 12, 2002 I've only seen her live on stage once for Bright Red. Night in Baghdad was amazing. She also did a couple of bits that ended up on Life as a String. She was working on One White Whale and did that YEARS before it ended up on an album. She doesn't get out to the LA area as often as I'd like.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
