I think I'll probably wait for the movie to come out for that one, but hopefully I can look forward to some insight from you or Moe before that.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03323371750376649045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32354680.post-25313471003235418112008-08-09T02:16:00.000-04:002008-08-09T02:16:00.000-04:00I haven't listened to Ferneyhough's opera in a whi...I haven't listened to Ferneyhough's opera in a while, thanks for the nudge to do so.Henry Hollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15871451112170286316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32354680.post-7146948276312007422008-08-08T23:01:00.000-04:002008-08-08T23:01:00.000-04:00What empiricus said.

It's the way I look at art, politics and the world around me anyway, but I'm glad somebody else got there first.Civic Centerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12362422142667230626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32354680.post-59671946894929648942008-08-08T20:37:00.000-04:002008-08-08T20:37:00.000-04:00I think I have to move him to the top of my list. ...I think I have to move him to the top of my list.
