It's Marc Bolan Independence Day!

Today, the valiant glam rock singer Marc Bolan died. You can read the story of his heroic sacrifice here!

Vaya con dios, Senor Bolan.

Hmm…he looks a little bit like Sirius Melka (one of the members of Astatine Federation—go here). And no, I never saw piccies of Sr. Bolan before. Now I know who I'll base Sirius on. =3 (The other members of the group are Nevin Harding, influenced by Brian Slade in Velvet Goldmine, and Shadonna Miyazaki, who's…um…I dunno who she's based on.)

So what did he do? Latin glam-rock, or something? Can you send me MP3s?

No, he just did regular glam rock. The song "Twentieth Century Boy" in Velvet Goldmine is one of his songs (though performed by one of the movie bands in the film), as well as "Diamond Meadows" (which plays in the background in one scene... ). Most glam rock fans divide into two camps, either David Bowie or Bolan, but I like both. ^_^

Will was just being silly, since Marc Bolan apparently died on the same day as Mexican Independence Day. ^_^;

Alas, I have none of my music in MP3 format. I am weird and old fashioned that way.
