Julie, don't know if Gloria Mundi are on your gothdar, but they are sometimes credited with being the first ever goth band in the UK. Bauhaus were a post-punk band till they played with GM at the Marquee and then revised their approach considerably. Their stuff still sounds amazing, too.

hi, David (iL), agreed about early Bauhaus. also thinking early Cure, the Singles... i dunno goth so much, and figure all my selections would already be selected or be naiive by comparison. have not heard Gloria Mundi, for instance. thanks for the tip.

Handy Haversack:

Yeah, Julie, private rooms. What we usually do (did ... ?) is do the "marathon" on a weekend day. It's $15 per person to book the room for up to seven hours! So we invite everyone and go from like 1 PM to 8 PM! Usually the first hour is just me and Kate singing sad songs about alcohol to each other. "Tom Traubert's Blues." "Joey." That kind of thing.

David, I once made the mistake of thinking Pulp's "Common People" would find a working-class sense of fellow feeling when we were at an extremely rural roadhouse karaoke session on the Fourth of July in western Michigan. I was greeted with a "Welcome to America" when I finished. So I thinks to myself, well, everyone loves classic rock.

Rush did not land with that crowd either.
