Comments on: Meat is Murder http://www.babygotbooks.com/2005/09/22/meat-is-murder/ Your head will collapse if there's nothing in it Tue, 07 Feb 2012 12:16:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Shaft http://www.babygotbooks.com/2005/09/22/meat-is-murder/comment-page-1/#comment-151 Shaft Mon, 13 Feb 2006 04:06:11 +0000 http://www.babygotbooks.com/2005/09/22/meat-is-murder/#comment-151 I just finished this fine piece of work (on loan from the noteworthy turntablist), and rather than post, I thought I’d just throw a comment up here. I loved the book. After having become one of the whiniest singer/songwriters of the current era, Joe Pernice had fallen off my “approved” list. But this little book might be enough to right the ship. While I couldn’t identify personally with a lot of the events that happened in the book, I appreciated them nonetheless. And ol’ Joe knows how to turn a phrase or two or three. Lots of funny metaphors used to describe the situations in which he found himself. And the lust that overtook him for Allison was completely believable and sadly hilarious. I’m going to see if they need anyone to add to this series with a piece on “Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ‘Em” or the debut album from Pebbles, in which case you may find some nonfiction from yours truly on bookshelves soon.
