Well, yes, that certainly is eclectic. I didn't know KJ (or Cabaret
Voltaire, for that matter) showed up in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I'll have
to check it next time. That must have been in the 5 minutes or so in the
mid-80s when the Joke were approaching mainstream status, along with Weird
Science.





I can kind of see Prong and Public Enemy, but G'n'R just seems... out of
place.



My favourite is the posters in the record store in The Hidden. Aside from
many others, some of the more obvious ones are the Sisters of Mercy, the
Mission, Eurythmics and Simple Minds. Neverr really liked more than a couple
of Eurythmics songs, but everything else is cool.



Jim.

Liking P.E. and Guns N' Roses and Prong.....I don't think that's that far
fetched.



In "Ferris Bueler's Day Off," meanwhile, Ferris had posters of Cabaret
Voltaire, Bryan Ferry, Charlie Sexton, Simple Minds and our own KILLING JOKE
... and knew all the lyrics to Wayne Newtown's "Danke Schoen." *THAT*, my
friends, is eclectic taste.

Afternoon all. Just watching the Special Really Extended Special Edition of
Terminator 2. As well as Public Enemy (okay) and Guns'n'Roses (oh dear)
posters, John has a Prong poster on his wall, Beg To Differ album. Not sure
how that squares with his other music tastes, mind you...



Oh well. Just thought I'd mention it.



Jim.
