Res at Dorcia
Patrick: "You like Huey Lewis and the News?"
Paul: "Yeah... They're ok."
Patrick:"Their early work was a little too 'new wave' for my taste, but when 'Sports' came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically... The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost... He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor."
Paul: "Hey, [?]? "
Patrick: "Yes?"
Paul: "Why are the copies of the 'style' section all over the place? Do you have a dog? A little chow or something?"
Patrick: "No, Allen."
Paul: "Is that a rain coat?"
Patrick: "Yes it is!... In '87, Huey released this, Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to Be Square," a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself! Hey, Paul!?" *kills Paul with axe* "I'm getting the reservation at Dorcia you fucking stupid bastard!"
