3) Zodiac sign: Figured you could tell from my birthday but I’m a Cancer
4) Height: 5′6.5″
5) Hobbies: Listening to music, writing, snuggling up with my pets, doing various puzzles and quizzes
6) Favorite colors: Red is my favorite, but I also like cerulean, purple, pink, actually anything but orange
7) Favorite books: Most of my favorites are nonfiction (Inside Out, The Disaster Artist, etc.) just as biopics are my favorite “genre,” but I do like some works of fiction (ie Things Fall Apart) and also I’m probably forgetting a bunch I like
8) Last song I listened to: I think it must’ve been “Crimson and Clover” by Tommy James and the Shondells
9) Last film I watched: I Just got done watching Apollo 13 (which I have watched before, but it’s been like 5 years)
10) Inspiration or muse: I don’t know, I get inspired by a lot of things (probably because most things are greater than I am) but I think the music that I listen to inspires me most, especially when I’m trying to think of things I could write about; for example, the book I’m in the process of editing was inspired by two songs by Love because I daydream way too much
11) Dream job: I would like to say bass player or movie composer/songwriter, but there’s so many things I want to do that I can’t focus on anything :s
12) Meaning behind your URL: Eddie Crane is the greatest character in the CCU (Cheers Cinematic Universe) but some bastard took eddiecrane

Lou Reed - Sally Can’t Dance (live in Barcelona, 1984)
Lou avoided performing songs off his album “Sally Can’t Dance”, so I’m always on a look-out for those rare moments when he finally gave up, and sung some tunes from his most commercial, most throwaway album (which isn’t actually bad, compared to the ‘worst of’, say, Bob Dylan!). This title track sees Lou in a good form, with some neat guitar and horns. The whole concert is on Youtube too!
Dedicating this to @sadsongz , who is reaaaally into SCD album and the era. Enjoy!
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT: Jim Morrison vs Lou Reed / Joe Strummer vs Johnny Rotten / Patti Smith vs Debbie Harry
1. Jim morrison. i don’t know too much abt him, but i know he cud take lou in a fight. Lou’s always an instigator, but never a winner in these things.2. I feel like Joe would plan out his attacks better than Johnny, so i’m gonna say Joe. Johnny started it probably.3. Debbie. I can’t tell whom started it, but Debbie wins. People don’t think it, but when she does... everyone is Sh00keth
