    You’re half right Klaus.
    There were plenty of bands that went that way back then, Deep Purple for example – with Ronnie James Dio, etc. I accept them as they are. Holy Water is a fairly easy song to figure out on a six string.

    Now if only the guitar chick ripped off her dirndl and played in a black sequined string bikini I might watch it to the end.

    Here’s a video of “Highway to Hell” in, get this .. hard rock style. Check out that lead guitarist decked out like a British schoolboy acting like a total spazz. Hilarious.

    You know, if you get past his antics, he’s actually pretty good

Van der Leun: The Normblog Bio of Your Host

“From a student radical/hippie/leftist of the Free Speech Movement/Vietnam Day Commitee era and a full-on Democratic Liberal in the decades after, I think I’ve evolved a politics that is neither right nor left but is, in its elemental nature, draconian. In the last 20 years, I’ve taken apart my beliefs with a sledgehammer. Now I’ve got to put the surviving parts back together with tweezers and other ‘shabby equipment, always deteriorating’.”

From September 1, 1939 by W. H. Auden

All I have is a voice
To undo the folded lie,
The romantic lie in the brain
Of the sensual man-in-the-street
And the lie of Authority
Whose buildings grope the sky:
There is no such thing as the State
And no one exists alone;
Hunger allows no choice
To the citizen or the police;
We must love one another or die.

Defenseless under the night
Our world in stupor lies;
Yet, dotted everywhere,
Ironic points of light
Flash out wherever the Just
Exchange their messages:
May I, composed like them
Of Eros and of dust,
Beleaguered by the same
Negation and despair,
Show an affirming flame.
