You know it's my own game and that reference *still* almost slipped
by me

""This is no longer a factor, as "Strawberry Fields Forever" and "The
Fool On The Hill" are in Party Willy (Part 1), which I have just
finished apart from the attributes of Maria
previous hacks to specify the player's sprite-page in any room, and
to implement my 24-hour clock.""
Excellent. Looking forward to it
""It's not me, although I /have/ seen David live three times
(Sound+Vision tour, August 1990; Outside tour, December 1995; Move
festival, July 2002).""
Oh well. Did you get the new album? I picked it up yesterday, and
it's great
""But I /am/ going to see Radiohead at Manchester in November! :-) It
will be my second time to see Radiohead live - the first was in
October 2000, the week that Kid A was released.""
Ah Radiohead. I saw them live earlier this year. Great gig that
""Party Willy (Part 1) has three Radiohead-inspired rooms, and also
uses "Where bluebirds fly." (from the "There there." single) as the
in-game tune. There are several Bowie-references too, not to mention
other musicians...""
Music references are the lifeblood of this genre
