In other dying rockstar news, I picked up the 2009 concert dvd for the Tragically Hip. Free, from the library. No fucking way I'm paying over $15 to see their last concert.

We just watched him in Young Frankenstein. Must say I thought the more recent Willy, with Johnny Depp, caught the sang froid and bathos of the book better, Wilder's version was treacly and didn't do it justice.
