actually does anyone have an opinion on the can DVD, i've not seen it, am intrigued... the only can footage i've seen/i have is the (incredible) "paperhouse" from beat club and some hilariously camp versions of "can can" and "i want more" off some german variety show. (also popol vuh doing...

'ege bamyasi' was the one that got me, my best mate james being a mad can fiend when i shared a house w/him at age 17-19, i remember finding 'future days' on vinyl (one of the few he hadn't scored) and he pulled such an incredible guilt trip on me i had to let go of my copy (i did trade it for...
