As of today I have a new favorite band, and after you listen to/watch their videos so will you! Dresden Dolls are sort of a punk-rock cabaret mixed with a little of the White Stripes (the less-annoying parts of the White Stripes).
Favorite video: Coin-Operated Boy
Second Favorite Video: Girl Anachronism
The links are Quicktime, and point to the lo-res versions. They have high-res videos on their site that a huge, but more gorgeous.
Ed,
I couldn't figure out from your web site how to e-mail you, perhaps this works? I was randomly wondering today what had become of Marcus and I googled and got your page. I'm very sad to hear this news, and very surprised. But it was wonderful to read your writing about him. I'm the other temp from Visa by the way, the one who used to give him rides home. On the way home we used to sing that Smiths song at top volume ("if a double decker bus, crashes into us...if a ten ton truck, kills the both of us") in a very maudlin tone. No, we weren't dating! But we knew everyone thought we were. Thank you for posting your memories about him, Ed. Thank you very much and all the best to you,
Susanna Lee
