Sonic Death Monkey
We're not called Sonic Death Monkey anymore, we are on the verge of being called Kathleen Turner Overdrive, but tonight we're Barry Jive and the Uptown Five...
OK in the book it's a little bit different and they don't jump into, "Let's Get It On."
OK so I read a novel in less than 36 hours. I tried to finish it last night, but I just couldn't quite get through all 300 and some odd pages. I bought it yesterday when I was hanging with Sam and I have to say I enjoyed every minute of it. Maybe I'll read more fiction. Wait I'm ahead of myself.
I recently watched the movie. I blogged about watching it again and I would provide you with a link, but screw it I'm lazy and you can click the freaking history links and yes I'll get more hits that way as you slide through the blog stroking my ego with each and every hyper text link you click. Boo ya.
I wanted to jump Genres and I did. Nick Hornby's High Fidelity. I honestly didn't know that he (and thus it) are (is?) British. So the voice started out as John Cusack in my head and ended up as John Cusack doing a really bad Brit Accent in my head. Lovely. Laura did the same thing.
I wanted to read it because everybody is on about every book made into a movie, "The book is better." So I figured I love the movie, if the book is better then I'll love that too. Right? Yes indeed I was right, mutherfucker. That book rocks. It was like a nicely written out tour of the movie with extra stuff added. Seriously does the shit get any better than that. When they came to the end and Barry announces the new name of the band... (it gets new names several times) Sonic Death Monkey... I laugh out loud. Kinda scare Sam in fact. I wasn't sure how he'd pull it off in writing. He did. I won't go into details. You know behind closed doors and all.
I had a good time. I can say that.
