I saw Ms. Anderson's "Oh Superman" tour. I liked the album pretty well but the show was so good I couldn't bother listening to the record anymore. Simmilarly, after seeing The Butthole Surfers around 20 times back in their hayday I find it difficult to enjoy their great albums. Recording spectacle is tough. (I recall Gibby calling Laurie Anderson "A grant sucking pig" at their show at The New Ritz in early '89. I think they were launching into "22 Going On 23" and the first few frames of the p*enis reconstruction film were flickering up on the screen. I'm not sure of the specifics but I do remember that the fun cartoons had ended and things were taking a turn towards the dark side)
