On Laurie Anderson Frightens Millennial
I like Lady Gaga, even, but I think Lady Gaga fans of all people should appreciate the avant-garde 80s artists who she references so thoroughly a lot of the time. Grace Jones in particular comes to mind, but Laurie Anderson's thoughts on consciousness and mass media definitely come into play in Gaga's smarter stuff.

Are you the person who posted that over on the Gawker article because I swear I actually laughed out loud.

I used to love MIA but while it was awesome that she had Martin Rev onstage with her, I find "Born Free" to be about the laziest sample track in a long time. Samples are totally great but she just sampled "Ghost Rider" and then did... absolutely nothing with it. I dunno, I find /\/\/\Y/\ as a whole really disappointing.

Seriously though that live performance of "O Superman" after 9/11 makes me cry every time.

I registered here just to express my delight at this post.
I also just want to say as a Millenial that I was the first person to call him out and Laurie Anderson has been rocking my world since my early teens. The under-30 set is not all philistines I swear to god.

I think he's fine usually but this article left me gawping.
