I have a wide range of interests from classical to KMFDM and Slayer. Tom Waits and Tori Amos to John Spencer and Medeski, Martin & Wood ... I can't get into the commercial pop radio much. Velvet Acid Christ, White Stripes, Cat Power, Portishead, Skinny Pupy, Front 242, RL Burnside, G Love and Special Sauce, Thelonious Monk, Bird, Beastie Boys, Faith No More, Fugazi, Minor Threat, Moby, Revolting Cocks
I lean toward the indie films and somethign with either substance or goofy humor. I'm itching to see "Kung Fu Hustle"
Nerdy television where they blow up stuff and make things. I'm a fan of the Discovery Networks (History Channel, Discovery ... ) as well as C-Span. Yup, I watch C-Span, intentionally. BBC World News, any programming involving pedals and two wheels, Sometimes CNN is tolerable. I'll watch the Wather Channel for a bit. Law & Order (all of them), 24, MASH ... I recently got tv again after years without. I can only sit infront of it for a few minutes at a time. I have to fiddle about and pace while I'm watching the damned thing.
Jack Kerouac, Hunter S. Thompson, Charles Bukowski, William S. Burroughs and some miscellaneous stuff. I'm also a whore for journalism and truth - the Journalism Business is in a sad state these days.
