Completely missed this before. Sorry.
Yeah, the duesling songs are completely off my scale, but they're meant
to be frenetic and bizarre. Some of the other music-- "Poison," for
example, is quite brill, and considering the target audience is 13 year
old girls, pretty racy and sophisticated.
Oh, and yeah, I'm desperately in the market for the DVDs-- Vol. 2
especially. So if'n you're looking to offload them....
I did get CLAMP's RG Veda. It's interesting. Kind of fun to see how far
anime's come.

It takes about five hours to drive from Pgh to Philly. It's not the
longest drive in the world, nor is it the most boring (St. Pete to
Gainesville, FL takes the cake on that one), but it really depends on
your stamina, your car, and your CD collection.
Just out of curiosity, I must have missed something in your paragraph
above. INXS is touring?
