Where's Neil When We Need Him?

So, a few years ago, I was super excited about Neil Gaiman + Crispin Glover when the cast list was released for Beowulf (which Ted quite accurately described as being about a bunch of frat boys beating, killing, and drinking all the time).

Now I'm twice as excited for Neil Gaiman + Stephin Merritt, one of my favourite musicians, who is writing the songs for Coroline the Musical!!!

I wanted so badly to see The Magnetic Fields when they were touring, but damn, they sell out fast!
