I had a feeling that was the case.  I saw a grainy version of the video on line.  All I remember is something about a rock school and Rush.

jesus, where do i start ... i must admit that i'm a bigger fan of their poppier stuff than their noise-y experiments
 
 sugarcube (my favorite)
 autumn sweater
 let's save tony orlando's house
 today is the day
 season of the shark
 moby octopad
 
 that's just from their post-1997 stuff
 
 and in my haste i believe i mis-spoke, i should have said their "ability to write and perform magnificent pop songs and also experiment with the forms and conventions of rock music"

ahhh, post-97 stuff.  after being forced to listen to "painful" and seeing a thoroughly uninteresting and painful to listen to live performance in 96, i washed my hands of them.  i just can't get out of my head the sight of ira and what's-his-name just walking from keyboard to keyboard, fiddling with knobs and taping down keys.

I'm surprised the media still consider this prick news-worthy to be honest. Does anyone give a toss about him anymore....apart from his mum of course.
