1st 100 pages of the connelly book (Spoilers DUH!)

I got my notification today to.
Looking forward to it.

well shit - i guess you guys placed your order before me - because i’m still waiting.

Kinda worried though; it’s coming by UPS, but I work during the day. Hopefully it comes wednesday, if I miss getting it i’ll be pissed.

I make sure all my Amazon packages are delivered to my work address.

UPDATE: It’s here!

Looks like mine was shipped…

Kinda hard when I work at a restaurant. But i’m off today/tomorrow, so I just wait today…and not go anywhere. Not anywhere at all…

Got it today! Read the first two chapters so far, which isn’t telling much, but just describing people. Just waiting for things to pick up and such. But seems enjoyable so far.

Got it today too. [sly]

shit-fuck cock-suck!!! where’s mine!?!?

(i now use icons to express myself)
[:P]

Received mine today. Amazon UPS’d the book separately from an order which I placed the same day… and received a day earlier. Go figure. So far the density of the book looks like it may be a good read.

says the book is delayed on Amazon-this is probably untrue-it’s out there!

maybe a reading soon in chicago

stay tuned!

the cool shite always happens in chicago! bastards. [:)]

fucking finally! mine is on its way.

i called amazon about my delay - and the next day i got an alert saying its coming.

i can’t wait to read this thing!

It’s very entertaining. I’m about to start the last chapter, which is apparently about the making of “Linger Ficken Good”.

Don’t bother! Send it back! it’s boring now. who cares? we’re done talking about it [:)] just kidding! happy reading.
Late,

I fuckin’ hate you! j/k If only I lived in chi-town… :frowning:

And today I FINALLY FINISHED the book and am ready for discussion, but likely should wait until the others have finished as well. But i’ll give a quick review. I enjoyed every second of it, wasn’t surprised at all how Al was portrayed and was kinda sad, but very funny at times. Kind of a shame about how chris perceives the phenobarb album, which I think is absolutely great. But with such reasons, I can understand why.

Until now I had only heard the name Tucker on in terms of reference, it’s cool to get to know a little more of who he was rather than him being some random guy from ministry/pigface who just so happened to kill himself. Glad to get some perspective on that.

In the end, it was insightful and I think tasteful. Didn’t come to me as malicious or even remotely brutal towards al, and seemed a little more sympathetc than anything else. Well worth the money and the wait.

thankyou very much! Tucker was a wonderful man, and I miss him, I wish I believed in an afterlife where he could be with his bosom buddy Raven…

thanks for your very kind words!

Any word on the wereabouts of Tucker’s diary Chris?

Got my book this week, finally started it tonight. I read the first four chapters while listening to BSQ and YGDSOB in their entirety. Actually, CC was yelling out “You goddamned son of a bitch” just as I was reading about Bill yelling the same thing at a motorist - good timing. Reminded me of the books I’d read along to records as a kid (“You’ll know it is time to turn the page when you hear…”) Great stuff…can’t wait to to finish it, probably this weekend. Lots to discuss, that’s for sure.
