I'd skip the damn Cure show in a heartbeat if I could manage to get to this. My god, I'd love to see Laurie, DeLillo, Rushdie, and Vonnegut in one go!
By the way, for anyone interested in Laurie Anderson, she is about to release a new record(?) under the radar - it's believed that HMV has it listed for preorder: Here
Also, she is touring new work through the US. I'll be going to the Oxford, Ohio show October 11th. Wheeee!
