Hi,
 
The writer of the famous play "Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf?" has fallen, to the realm of ... those in history of the art of theater. Edward Albee.
 
Not sure that rock'n'roll folks enjoy theater in depth, but his work, is sort of like the hard core attacks that eventually could be called "metal", in a lot of music. While it is unfair to think that all he did was have a few characters upset with each other and scream at each other, in the end, this was the inevitable extension of the Actor's Studio and the "Stella" thing ... the huge scream that gave us Marlon Brando. A good 20 years it took for people to finally hear it all!
 
Sadly, almost all that is left in theater today, is the crap in Broadway and the continuous revivals of the same old shows ... for your "entertainment".
 
I think I would rather have a joint, or go see another movie somewhere. Maybe catch Sam Shappard in his theater, playing drums, and watching thousands of ping pong balls fall on the stage. (no kidding!)
 
RIP ... and I'm not sure that many of us, these days, will even try to watch Elizabeth and Richard go at each other again ... it's almost painful! But it was awesome theater for a long time. And still is, if a couple of actors have the courage.

I watched 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf' (2 'o's by the way, these things are important) a few months ago. I enjoyed it immensely.
 
I liked the stage production of 'War Horse' far more than Spielberg's movie. It moved me to tears.
 
I think 'Back in Black' by AC/DC contains the best rock riff ever.
 
I like the disturbing animations of the Brothers Quay.
 
I think 'Wichita Lineman' might be the best pop song ever.
 
I think 'Tales From Topographic Oceans' is a pile of dreadful nonsense.
 
..I do like 'Close to The Edge' though...
 
...but given the choice I'd swop it for 'Milk and Alcohol' by Dr Feelgood
 
...I think Roger Dean was hugely over-rated and lazy.
 
..but I love the art of Rene Magritte, Yves Tanguay, Stanley Spencer and M C Escher.
 
I think the 1968 version of 'Whistle and I'll Come to You' directed by Jonathan Miller and featuring a tour-de-force performance by Michael Hordern is one of the most terrifying films I've seen.
 
So.
 
Am I a 'rock n roll folk'?
 
 
 
 
 

You forgot to premise your reply with "Hi," James. 

'Preface' Craig. A 'premise' is the basic statement upon whose truth an argument is based.
 

Word. See what I did there?

But back to my ol pal Edward Albee..."Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" is my second favorite movie of all time. I just about love it near to death.

I didn't mis-type.

Speaking of Rene Magritte:  This is not a sentence.

A lot of English film never makes it here, specially these oldies, but of Michael Hordern's films I can remember, "The Bed-Sitting Room" is my favorite. He also did several walk-ons on many "Handmade Films", which must have been either his neighbors or some of his favorite stuff.
 
I guess we have to wait for a new revival of Edward Albee in NY. Maybe this time, it will be Taylor Swift and Kanye West as the leads. This way they can insult each other and get applause in the end, AND, get paid for it!
