Just curious, when was the last time Anything Goes was played live?

I got the microphone in Chicago Tuesday night.
I heard about what you did during the show from a few people, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Ted Nugent's "Snakeskin Cowboys"
I only listen to the intro and the first few words of the first verse so I can hear the "Ooooh Snakeskin cowboys," but I move on right after that.

You've seen his later classic but avoid Eyes Wide Shut.
It was shame he died before he could put his magic into the film.
Appetite recommend probably his best two early films.
I haven't seen Sparactus but Lolita was dreadful.
I have to correct you about Eyes Wide Shut. Kubrick died shortly after post-production, so he did, in fact, put whatever magic he had left into the film. The film that was marred by Kubrick's death was A.I.
Eyes Wide Shut has a poor reputation compared to the rest of Kubrick's ouevre, but I liked the movie and would give it a 7/10. The film represents its source material quite well, and the photography is grade A as usual for a Kubrick film.
Lolita, while not my favorite, features an excellent performance by Peter Sellers. From having read the novel, however, it's apparent that the movie pales in comparison. Nabokov's prose in his second language is better than that of most native writers.
Forgetting Kubrick, the last two movies I watched were Little Miss Sunshine and The Virgin Suicides.
Little Miss Sunshine: 9/10
The Virgin Suicides: 4/10
