CygnusGal Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 indeed I'm especially surprised that more rock fans dont know of him...don't they ever want to know what hawkwind and blue oyster cult are singing about? plus, cirith ungol got their first 2 album covers from michael whelan elric artoh and I believe blind guardian also have songs about the eternal champion and not to mention the NWOBHM band tygers of pan tang moorcock influence is everywhere Stormbringer's coming, time to die. He's got nothing you need. He's gonna make you bleed. :haz: Ritchie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vUbqx6Wzb8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bathory Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 yeah it seems like D&D fans are the only people who know moorcock and even then it's that late 70s/early 80s player you're talking about I don't play D&D but I know people who play it and the younger fans are into all the boring new fantasy stuff that just rips off tolkien, when I mention moorcock or le guin or anything they just stare at me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Francona (The Red Sox Years), by Terry Francona and Dan Shaughnessy. It's supposed to be a "burn book" of sorts. We'll see. Pretty good read so far. I'm at the point just as he's about to get hired in November 2003, so it's early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barney_rebel Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/0330484559.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, by Dave Eggers Just started this.. .can't put it down. I found the beginning stuff kind of annoying, and mildly funny, but when the story actually started I am enjoying it. I find this is kind of like how Catcher in the Rye should have been.

I've got to the part where both the future and past versions of themselves are in the sewers. I read it sometime between the Fall of 1986 and the Spring of 1987. I borrowed my college roommate's copy. Loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
