Bugs In AmberGet the Blessing 2:35pm on 07 May 2009 Or have I, unlike you Chris, naively succumbed to the urge to show off my knowledge, rather than allowing it tacitly to acknowledge the artistic, "big-upping" nods of fellow cognoscenti?
Bugs In AmberGet the Blessing 2:32pm on 07 May 2009 Reasoned and rational (if that's not tautological) thoughts, Chris. However, I'm a little surprised that you've overlooked the fairly well-known source of two of GTB's "great" titles: "yes I will..." is hugely famous as the final phrase from Mr J Joyce's "Ulysses" (specifically the closure of Molly Bloom's soliloquoy), whilst The Unnameable is the name of an entire novel from the justly celebrated "Beckett trilogy" (TE being the final book, after Molloy & Malone Dies), widely felt be the epitome of Beckett's prose work.

I love this band, in any case. But I thought I'd foist some background on your readership.

All the best,

Paul.

PS

My band organelles has had the privilege of both Messrs Barr & Judge gracing its membership - one of our titles is "I can't go on, I'll go on". Go on: Google that one!
