[kj] {MA} Strange Things from the Eighties

[Change]

It seems a lot of things going on then (EIGHTIES) are coming back now. Now it's the USA and Britain invading Afghanistan and it looks like another Cold War is beginning.

DF: We were saying before that we've spent a lot of time with each other since the Sunday just gone and it's odd that all this has gone off this week. We've not spent this amount of time together for a long time, so it's odd this atmosphere has been around of financial crisis.

Do you think there might be some kind of psychic unconscious element that you're tapping into there?

DF: Strange things happen when Magazine are together!

And "Strange Thing" is a Buzzcocks song...

HD: With Martin Hannet?

Yeah. I'm sure the last person I interviewed for Flux, Genesis P-Orridge of Psychic TV, would have some ideas about music connecting with a psychic sixth sense or whatever you want to call it.

HD: How is he/she?

Well it was quite a while ago, before Lady Jaye died so I couldn't really say. Going back to something you said earlier about Bob Dylan and Christianity, you sounded disapproving of Christianity in your tone of voice. Is that so?

HD: I seem to become more atheistic with age. I'm pleased that books like "God is Not Great" by Christopher Hitchins are being written and having quite an impact.
