Help! I keep remembering the phrase "I'm going to have to kill you..." or
something. I can't remember what it's from, but I think it's TMBG. Or
Firesign Theater or something! Help me if you can!

Graciously,
Rick

Could it be... -

"I had the strangest dream. I dreamed I killed you again. Don't make me
kill you again, 'cause I couldn't bear to kill you... again."

That's from 'Ondine,' but it could also be:

"I promise not to kill you," from 'Spider.'

Of course, there are alot of other choices. TMBG seem to make death and
killing references quite a bit in their music (especially their earlier,
drum machine era-work).

Love? What do you know of love?!,

Hey everybody, There's this new up-and-coming band called TriangleMan
that is highly influenced by TMBG (hence the name) and they absolutely
rock. Ok, so they are friends of
   mine, but I really don't think I am biased when I say they are one
the best new bands out there.  They have free mp3's on the site, as well
as online ordering for their cd's. the site is:
   http://www.mp3.com/triangleman

   check it out.

   what i want to know is whatever happened to Boo-Berry? I loved that
stuff.

At http://www.twistid.com/tmbg , there is a song called New Jersey,
being credited to John Linnell in the file name, but in actuality by
NOT John Linnell, but some anonymous artist. The giveaway to the
fact that it's not a JL State Song is that the song actually seems to
be about the state.
