Illuminati (33rd Degree)
Anybody know what's up with Danny Elfman these days? He used to be on practically every soundtrack - Seems it was required of all new movies in the late 80's and early 90's. I'm not complaining 'cause I think he's teriffic.
I guess the "newness" wore off and I don't hear his soundtracks as often. I'll bet he's still first pick on many of the action films though - He was perfect for movies like Batman. But the last news I've heard was from about a year ago.
It's amazing how many hits Oingo Boingo did too. Dead Mans Party from Back to School is still one of my favorites. Weird Science sticks in my mind too.
Love them. W.H. Auden on speed (with a horn section). "Who do you want to be today" and "Only a lad" are some of my favorites. Really great band - one of my favorite bands.

I like "Who Do You Want To Be" too. "Flesh 'N Blood" is another good one.
Seems like Dawne knows Danny Elfman. She went to school with him or something, didn't she? Remember at Mark and Dawne's house when we were playing Dead Man's Party and she came in the room? Didn't she say something to that effect then?
Did you check out the write-ups about "Big Fish"? It's another Tim Burton film that Elfman is doing the soundtrack for. That's always a winning combination, so I'm anxious to see this one too.
