__________________Gavin is a complete and utter genius. On a genius scale of one to ten he is eleventy-billion. He actually BROKE the genius scale when they attempted to gauge his talent, springs everywhere, it was a complete mess. He's at least partially responsible for the soundtracks of "In The Name of the Father", "The Boxer", "In America" and has contributed songs of his own and collaberations to Baz Luhrman's films "Romeo and Juliet" and "Moulin Rouge". These works are just sidelines, however, the REAL beauty of what he's done are (in my humble opinion) three cds that could melt the paint off of walls. Adam and Eve, Each Man Kills the Thing He Loves and Shag Tobacco. He also just did narration in Peter and the Wolf, AND pulled off a spectacular one man show "I Didn't Come Up the Liffey In A Bubble" in Dublin this past summer. I would have given my first born AND my two front teeth to see that, but that's another story. He paints as well, oh and there's a little matter of starting and fronting one of the most influential and woefully underrated bands in Ireland's history "The Virgin Prunes" who were BRILLIANT performers live, and pushed the envelope of what was acceptable as art onstage. Performers like NIN, Smashing Pumpkins, and Marilyn Manson owe a LOT to the Prunes. He's brilliant, creative, funny, a really courageous artist, interesting, well read, brutally honest, challenging, diverse, articulate and original in the best sense of the word. Needless to say I'm a huge fan. T.G.I.F. and then some. Ok enough of that, let's get down to what's really important here. Just think of the softest, sexiest velvety thing you can, dip that in butter, go sit in the warmest, steamiest hot tub in the world and then have a martini in a dim lounge with your leg curled around the barstool. Velvet-chocolate-sex-bomb-lipstick-martini-purr-cologne-gasm. THAT'S what he sounds like. *THUD* I'm URGING YOU. Go find and buy something where you can hear him, it's worth every freaking penny. *MELT* You'll be saying "Bono who?" in THREE seconds FLAT. ![]() ****this announcement brought to you by the society for the promotion of Gavin Friday. A.k.a. ... Jen.**** |
