AWESOME!

Thanks to hippie_chick I have heard some of the soundtrack from Charlie & The Chocolate Factory and it is almost like hearing new music from Oingo Boingo again. I can hear elements of Danny's past incarnation as lead singer/songwriter of Boingo and I have to wonder as I am listening to the horn work if he brought the guys back out of retirement to play on this soundtrack.

And speaking of coming out of retirement, we are closing in on the ten year anniversary of the final concert - now would be a great time to treat the fans for a surprise Halloween concert. Of course, living here in NC it isn't as if I could go if they did. But it would be f'ing awesome for the fans if they did it. *sigh*

I can dream can't I?

I have been overdosing on the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory soundtrack lately - it's just so much fun. Great score with a really amusing main theme!

All I have right now are the Oompa Loompa songs and they are enough to get me excited for the moment. I can only hope to see the movie soon so I can put images to the music.

wow... I guess it really has been 10 years huh?

I do regret never seeing them in concert... had a few chances way back then, but just never quite made it.

I still need to see Willy Wonka...

Oh, and I have a surprise for you later today... stay tuned.

I don't know if you remember, but I took your cousin to one of the farewell concerts at Universal.

Didn't even get a good night kiss! *chuckle*

If it had been Paul I think the evening would have ended the same... Except I wouldn't have been checking out his rack. (For the record, no rack checking occured - I hate the thought of going to jail)
