Are any of the songs from Daddy-O or The Beatniks on Spotify? If not, then it's not worth bothering with

I don't have the soundtrack for Beatniks but I do have two tablas and what may be a piece of 60 year old hashish

I came, I saw, I bought the t-shirt. The show was great. This one was "No Retreat, No Surrender". Joel chided the people who sang the "la la la" part when they weren't supposed to. I loved the new additions to the cast for the live show. I ran into a bunch of people I knew who I had no idea were fans. If anyone else is still on the fence, try finding some tickets now. Definitely a memorable night.

Somebody at my showing yelled Joel should play Free Bird when he had the guitar and he actually started to.

So I'm looking at the March 1st show in Madison and it says it's No Retreat No Surrender, but when I click on "buy tickets" it shows a 7 o'clock show AND a 9 o'clock show. Has anybody run into this? I know when I went to the 30th anniversary tour they did two different movies back to back. I'm not sure if this is like that, or if I'd be seeing the same movie twice.

Turns out the live show was near my hotel on Saturday so I bought the tickets that day. Good-rear end show, Circus of Horror should've been an actual episode. "How.......ARE Y'ALL DOING TONIGHT?!"

I finished the MST3K comic the other day- I hope they do more honestly. The first issue was cute but it actually got really fun as it went along. the Crow Keeper was great

Same with us yesterday, and they had script to react to it. ("It's almost like they know to yell that!"). Had a blast with No Retreat No Surrender, which somehow I'd never seen despite being in my wheelhouse. It's weird how I always consider MST3K a better concept than execution, then I'll go see it live (or to the Rifftrax MST3K reunion thing the other year which I saw in a movie theater) and I'll laugh my rear end off the entire time. Maybe it's the audience factor, and having a few beers that helps. The Mac and Me episode on Netflix was great too, I'm a real sucker for bad 80s movies which they wouln't have had access to for most of the shows run really. One thing I'm curious about, at one point during the show last night Joel left the podium and was replaced by Emily briefly, before he came back. I didn't hear any obvious reason as to why he did this, so assuming it's just part of the passing the torch thing they did at the end? I liked her during the show, so would be intrigued to see if that is how it goes for the next reincarntaion.

Watched Track of the Moon Beast last night and it was funny but mostly made me homesick. Reminded me of a movie my scout troop made back in high school (with about the same quality, though I'm pretty sure ours never showed outside of a VCR in an assembly hall). I need to find a chance to get back to NM for a visit.

I re-watched the scene on Track of the Moon Beast where the Bots reenact the Halloween season rushing bit and found it more funny than I ever had before, simply by virtue of focusing on Mike. The man has a gift for doing something mundane and barely acknowledging the world around him and making it seem hilarious. (See also the 'Mike the audiophile' bit from The Creeping Terror.')

Bruceski posted:People underestimate what a good straightman brings to the table. He was really good at acting. I remember a line Conan had about his show versus Letterman. He said that Letterman was always in control and was sort of above the madness, and they Conan wanted to be part of the madness and couldn't just stop it. I think that's the difference between Mike and Joel to me. Joel always felt like he was welcoming you to his world, but he was in control. Mike, on the other hand, was not in control and was more a part of the world. And I love both approaches. Joel always has a style that reminds me of the Muppet Show. I don't know how to best describe it.

The dynamic was different for this simple reason: Joel created the bots and so basically was their father figure. Mike had nothing to do with them before he got abducted, so he was pretty much just their goofy human buddy.

I always liked how Mike’s character got fleshed out a bit more. We learned about his past, and the bots would even make fun of him for having been a deadbeat stoner.

One of my favorite little touches was Mike's escape attempts. Admittedly using calling cards to ring his grandma or throwing a ladder down to Earth might have not been the most efficient methods* but I liked that it did sort of remind the audience Mike was a prisoner and did not actually want to spend his life watching bad movies. *Shooting Crow down the Umbilicus had potential, mind, although after the first attempt Dr. F laid out a giant moustrap with a Nutrageous in it so that's a shame.

Jim Henson once said that if each episode of The Muppet Show were a basketball game, the final score would always be Frog 99, Chaos 98. That seems to sum up Mike's run more than Joel's.

Saw the live show. No Retreat, No Surrender is loving awful. I hope it's not the last new MST3K content! They seemed to be planning to continue the live show, but I dunno if they wrote the show before Netflix canceled them.

Yeah it almost feels like Joel anticipated this outcome for a while and has fallback plans given how optimistic the messaging has been.

I have to imagine that Netflix weren't the only ones interested in the show after the Kickstarter so he probably has some idea of who he can talk to next.
