Subject: RE: BS: Sci-Fi and/or fantasy authors
Some years back Tolkien fan/singer/songwriter/comedian Martin Pearson created a fantastic show - The Unfinished Spelling Errors of Bolkien The Unfinished Spelling Errors of Bolkien is a lovingly irreverent re-telling of The Lord of the Rings, interspersed with songs. The story sections tend to switch among pointing out the logical inconsistencies and plot holes of the story, highlighting the differences between the book and the movie, and sometimes just careering off the rails, depending on what is funniest at the time.

The Unfinished Spelling Errors of Bolkien - listen here - My favourite of all the songs is The Loo Break Song which I started singing in my head sometime after I left a very hot venue early & was waiting for my friends to come out. When the doors opened, the stairs were packed & the lifts emptied disgorging more fans, all heading/racing to the loos.

I originally typed TOLKEIN a common version of the author's name!
