The F-List is essentially a motley crew sitting around my studio blabbing into microphones about extremely bad movies that we watch/have watched. The format of the show is quite loose, but we all discuss a common film that we have assigned ourselves weekly and then discuss others that we have watched in the past or present. Visit the link above and have fun.
I should also mention that this 13th of Friday is the birthday of Austrian composer Hugo Wolf. I won't say much about him mostly because there is not much to say that you couldn't read on Wikipedia or something. He died young and composed some great music. His songs (for which he is most famous) are intense and beautiful and are completely underperformed works of true art. He did not write much music (compared to his predecessors anyway) in his short life as he died of syphilis at 46 or 47 years old and most of his creativity was ruined by his intense depressions that he went through quite frequently.
Do yourself a favor and give his music a listen, especially the lieder.
Maestro
