This oversized book (8.5x11") has over 190 pages of fantastic pictures from behind the scenes, pictures of filming locations, storyboards, the entire script, lyrics, copies of articles that inspired David Byrne, and an essay by Byrne himself. I am asking $40 plus shipping and handling (Amerian dollars). This sells on a first come, first serve basis. Please privately e-mail.

I have seen the Goodies, and you know it. Albeit many, many years ago. Maybe I missed something there, in my younger impressionable state. But then again, I already loved Monty Python at the time.... And this I'm not sure about, but don't the Monkees also wear "name shirts" in the opening credits of their show? And even if not, the iconographic emphasis on "PETER," "MICKEY," "MICHAEL" and "DAVY" is an identical sort of approach.

During the first season, at least, they just smiled at the camera while their name appeared in subtitle. Maybe the shirt thing was a Mouseketeer reference? And I went to see Sunny Day Real Estate last night and was suitably impressed. And my brother sold a pair of fatigue pants to Sgt. Slaughter (no, not at the concert.)
