Synchronicity

Mark Evanier points out today that SFMOMA is running a Roy Lichtenstein exhibit right now, and that SFMOMA is conveniently located across the street from the Moscone Center, where Wondercon will be taking place in a couple of weeks.

I had actually intended on checking out SFMOMA while I was out there, but I think I’ll skip the Lichtenstein exhibit. I don’t hate him quite as much as many other comics fans do, but I can’t really say I have any respect for him either. I’d much rather look at the John Romita and Russ Heath originals than the silly little copies that this guy made and passed off as “Art”.

Austin City Limits

I’ve just discovered that there are good, Tivo-worthy things on Austin City Limits. There’s a Pixies episode coming up, and another with Wilco and Bright Eyes. I’ve got the Tivo set to record both of them now. I see a lot of other episodes this season that might be interesting: Trey Anastasio, Robert Randolph, Elvis Costello, and a few others.
