and King Crimson enthusiasts
Number 158, Friday, 25 November 1994
Today's Topics:
Drumming on VROOOM
Getting ahold of VROOM
Criticism of VROOOM (esp. Thrak)
My thoughts on Vrooom are irrelevant but I thought my 4 year old son summed
it up pretty well. I was playing the disk fairly loud when he came into
the room and said "Ahh, Papa, this is scary music!" I couldn't have put
it better myself! Long live Vrooom...
