It sounds like something I'm going to have to see... though, my favorite line from the interview is on Judith Butler, "She's like a combination of Richard Lewis and Mark E. Smith."... what an image, perhaps especially because while I get his schtick I don't find Richard Lewis very funny (in either a haha or the ooooohhhh way) and the worst rock show I ever saw was put on by a pissy and utterly pissed Mark E. Smith (after Brix, my affection for The Fall fell fast, anyway).
