Jonathan Richmann - your thoughts?

[Taverner]

I think there's a bit of maniacal genius at work there...

[elshiva]

1. I love him. "That summer feeling..."

[grace0418]

2. Absolutely adore him! I've seen him three times and it's always a blast.

It took awhile for him to grow on me, but grow on me he did. :loveya:

[Ohio Joe]

3. Never heard of him

Who is he?

[Sebastian Doyle]

10. no, that would be They Might Be Giants...

14. oops

You're right. I had an uneasy feeling after I posted, but I knew DU would set me straight if needed. Thanks, tigereye, now I can say I like Jonathan Richman AND They Might Be Giants.

15. no biggie, that's actually one I remember with no problem!

Actually TMBG and Jonathan would be an interesting combo or show... similar off-beat sense of humor and lyrics.

:hi:

5. One of the most charismatic front men I've ever seen. n/t

[Quantess]
