I feel my local equivalent is Powell's in Portland. Only sucks that people would linger for the cafe versus the books. I once spent like 8 hours there. My legs hurt because I never got a chance to sit.
I love them! They are such a beautiful couple. You can tell they have influenced each others' choices, and truly are interested (or want to try out) in what the other likes.
I met Neil and Amanda years ago. Neil used to live around Boston, and I met him at a book signing....in a church! Do you get the joke? Anyway, he was very humble, gratious, and polite. Amanda was there, and she said hi to me. That's about it. But a friend of a friend ran into them downtown...and they invited her to go to a club with them! "How was it?" "Great. Amanda was all over the dance floor." "and how does Neil dance?" "Like an awkward englishman."
It's too cool for words. Fabulous. Love their shared joy with music. What I remember from knowing him long, long ago was his favorite musical group was Depesch Mode.
Oh my God, the Joy Division book looks so wonderful! JD is my favorite band, and while she was talking about it my favorite song by them started playing. I love Neil and Amanda, together and apart. Soul mates for sure.
I wasn’t expecting a Pinback shoutout. One of the most underrated bands of my day. Saw them twice when MC CHRIS (Mc Pee Pants from ATHF) opened for them. I cried.
Elliott Smith, Pinback, and Neutral Milk Hotel? Awesome. I'm especially impressed with the Pinback selection though. Not enough people know that wonderful band.
This is an amazing video and a window into their individual and collective influences. I love this! It beats the Amazon recommended algorithm any day!!!
I could just hang out listening to the music and reading their recommendations. I had no break up at 16. I just listened to the music dreaming of the day that I might even have those feelings. Over 16 years later, I was better off moping about not knowing than moping about knowing.
I shit a gold brick when I found out these two were married. they are literally my two favorite artists in different mediums and both are great at what they do. I can see why they like each other too aaaa it's really really cute you two are precious
I was JUST finished playing Oh Comely and Two Headed Boy pt.2, decided to watch this video, guitar still on my lap, I was so happy when Neil pulled out that gem of an album. Truly the best album of all time!
I want that Rocky horror picture show book so badly! these two are so cute...I was so happy when they got together.I mean,one of my favourite singers with one of my favourite writers? just throw brian froud and tim burton in,aaaand....
"...it's a fork!" ROTFLMAO - btw in dance music world it never occurred to us that the Thompson Twins weren't cool - they were fucking brilliant I love that album too - and the one before it Quick Step
Just recently lend this Joy Division book from the library, it's really great! Beautiful photographs! Good pick by Amanda she will have a lot oj joy (pun intended) with it!
Big ups for Summer in Abaddon fuck yeah! 🤘 I mean I wouldn't call Pinback mathy per se but pretty sure their one odd time song is on that record? and there definitely is math rock influence, lots more mathiness in rob crow's solo stuff and other projects.
I could just imagine what a jam session with these two would be like, as they are fucking awesome, and they also like some of the stuff that I like (especially Muddy Waters and the Pogues and the RHPS).
Am keen to read the David Byrne and Velvets to the voidoids books. Never thought she would have been a Thompson twins fan, 😂 but there you go! Love this couple!
I still have that mojo with the CD attached to the magazine, do not remove it because it seems magical to keep it, it is my number of FAVORITE mojo, bowie and the electronic , 8 : 00
Goddammit, I don't want to be that person who says it, because Neil and Amanda are fantastic, marvelous artists and I love them both so much, and I really do respect them for their work, but holy shit THEY ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER.
I was shocked that LPD is her favorite band, their pretty obscure. They're one of my faves too, along with vocalist Ka-Spel and cEvin Key from Skinny Puppy's The Tear Garden.
the wait-five-years is the perfect method for tattoos. it's saved me so many times. (they always seem like such a good idea at the time) ESPECIALLY if you get easily bored with something. i change everything every few months, so i might just have to accept i'll be someone who adores them but can never get one
It was Spider Stacey who employed the beer tray to forehead percussion effect, not Shane McGowan, he was probably gripping the mic stand for steadiness with one hand while the other held a drinking implement...
Just think about those poor saps who sold their books for cigarette money who never ever realized they were going to be picked up and read by Neil Gaiman and Amanda Fucking Palmer!! If only they'd known… (From now on, I'm putting a personal autograph and dedication into every book I sell, just in case she buys it… ;^)
Seen Legendary Pink Dots twice, once solo and once opening for Skinny Puppy in Amsterdam. Edward I once met him at a record fair, I said hello and he was like stunned somebody said hello to him. He is a bit of a weirdo.
I saw LPD one too, when Niels was still with them. I tried to record a don't for a friend, and Niels kept blinding the camera with the light in his sax. I've seen Puppy a few times too.

Neil Gaiman does look like the happiest goth on Earth sometimes.
They were so great together, I was heartbroken for them when they split up.
I want them to teach me their ways. Dude, they are the coolest couple ever

ridiculously sexy couple.
That didn't age well
@@foljs5858 lol no it did not. still love amanda tho
I would have never guessed these two were married!
meaningless term
It's wonderful seeing Amanda and Neil interact. They're so adorable.
I'm in love with this store. I feel like a store like this is becoming increasingly rare.
Nathanielle Crawford I know what you mean I’ve been to that store in LA and it was awesome
I feel my local equivalent is Powell's in Portland. Only sucks that people would linger for the cafe versus the books. I once spent like 8 hours there. My legs hurt because I never got a chance to sit.
Holy crap, this is too much awesomeness for the world to contain.
Neil saw Svankmajer's films when he was young. It explains so many things ♥ ♥ ♥ I love these two!
I started listening to pinback when I saw this video back in 2013. I was in high school and now I’m finishing university and it’s still amazing
I love them! They are such a beautiful couple. You can tell they have influenced each others' choices, and truly are interested (or want to try out) in what the other likes.
I just adore neil gaimans books. And when I saw this I was so amazed. I didnt expect it.
I would watch the hell out of "Neil and Amanda Buy Shi*".
I met Neil and Amanda years ago. Neil used to live around Boston, and I met him at a book signing....in a church! Do you get the joke? Anyway, he was very humble, gratious, and polite. Amanda was there, and she said hi to me. That's about it. But a friend of a friend ran into them downtown...and they invited her to go to a club with them! "How was it?" "Great. Amanda was all over the dance floor." "and how does Neil dance?" "Like an awkward englishman."
This just confirms that Amanda and Neil could be my best friends.
I love Neil Gaiman and I love Neutral Milk Hotel, so when he held that record up I had a rather serious heart attack.
It's too cool for words.
Fabulous. Love their shared joy with music. What I remember from knowing him long, long ago was his favorite musical group was Depesch Mode.
Love these two so much.
Love to Legendary Pink Dots, Ive seen them live 4 times and each was a transcendent and beautiful experience.
Palmer and Gaiman look like they couldn't be more different. Opposite attracts and all that.
herosuper99 and all that
Gaiman is a scientologist, they know how to manipulate people's mind.
How wonderful to see you guys so lucky in love. Well done to a beautiful couple.x
Have I got news for you...
@@d1p70 Even more news in 2024
Oh my God, the Joy Division book looks so wonderful! JD is my favorite band, and while she was talking about it my favorite song by them started playing. I love Neil and Amanda, together and apart. Soul mates for sure.
I always come back to this video. I live them both, and actually influenced my music taste a lot.
Neil yelling "NEIL AND AMANDA BUY SHIT" at 9:28 is just priceless
Excellent 'In my bag' session . . . love these two
one of my favourite artist and writer. this is wholesome..
I wasn’t expecting a Pinback shoutout. One of the most underrated bands of my day. Saw them twice when MC CHRIS (Mc Pee Pants from ATHF) opened for them. I cried.
Elliott Smith, Pinback, and Neutral Milk Hotel? Awesome. I'm especially impressed with the Pinback selection though. Not enough people know that wonderful band.
The Pinback selection was pleasure to see. One of those bands I discovered by accident so long ago have been flogging on people ever since.
These two together is just bliss!
This is an amazing video and a window into their individual and collective influences. I love this! It beats the Amazon recommended algorithm any day!!!
Yeah I didn't see Pinback coming but I can wholeheartedly vouch for that album.
"It's a fork?"
"It's a trident."
"Oh."
I wanna watch them forever...
There's a link to the full list of their picks in the video description.
I could just hang out listening to the music and reading their recommendations.
I had no break up at 16. I just listened to the music dreaming of the day that I might even have those feelings. Over 16 years later, I was better off moping about not knowing than moping about knowing.
The Alice part made me so happy. I love how everything I've loved in my life always seems to magically lead back to Amanda Palmer.
I shit a gold brick when I found out these two were married. they are literally my two favorite artists in different mediums and both are great at what they do. I can see why they like each other too aaaa it's really really cute you two are precious
I was JUST finished playing Oh Comely and Two Headed Boy pt.2, decided to watch this video, guitar still on my lap, I was so happy when Neil pulled out that gem of an album. Truly the best album of all time!
I've learned about so much good music because of this show.
Jan Švankmajer movies! Thumbs up Neil!
I love Neil Gaiman so much!
I don't know much about Amanda Palmer though...
Are these two the first to raid the book section on this show?
TheDarkLordOfBass Maria Bamford hit up our books too! th-cam.com/video/-7XY5rk_D2o/w-d-xo.html
Amoeba Just another reason to love Maria! She's hilarious.
And Palmer just released an album with Edward Ka-spel. The videos are pretty amazing.
can i get dual-married to both of them?
Sure, if we can jettison the lot of you into outer space :D
What a wonderful people! Thanks.
I also love everything they both picked. (Added some of it to my shopping list)
Love this. Love them separately. Love them more together
I would never had suspected this combo. Bless.
Thank you for catching up with Neil and Amanda! Such a cool couple!
"It's a fork and..." "It's a trident." BAHAHAHAHAHAH!
I want that Rocky horror picture show book so badly!
these two are so cute...I was so happy when they got together.I mean,one of my favourite singers with one of my favourite writers? just throw brian froud and tim burton in,aaaand....
Holyshit-- had to pause when they featured Edward Ka-Spel and look him up. No matter the source, I love hearing something new and delightfully weird.
"...it's a fork!" ROTFLMAO - btw in dance music world it never occurred to us that the Thompson Twins weren't cool - they were fucking brilliant I love that album too - and the one before it Quick Step

I'm in between their ages, so this is fun to watch. Feels so familiar.
That was fun!! I want to go record shopping now too.
Legendary pink dots(EKS), Berlin & violator all in one bag. Nice bag!!
Makes me love them even more.
Fucking LOVE Pinback. Best band ever.
Neil is such a fantastic creative writer & dude !
I could just imagine what a jam session with these two would be like, as they are fucking awesome, and they also like some of the stuff that I like (especially Muddy Waters and the Pogues and the RHPS).
Am keen to read the David Byrne and Velvets to the voidoids books.
Never thought she would have been a Thompson twins fan, 😂 but there you go!
Love this couple!
Amanda Palmer is my super crush
I can relate to Amanda, in grade 7 I loved Howard Jones. I made up for it later in grade 11 and discovered Julian Cope!
oh how I hate spinning images
I still have that mojo with the CD attached to the magazine, do not remove it because it seems magical to keep it, it is my number of FAVORITE mojo, bowie and the electronic , 8 : 00
Goddammit, I don't want to be that person who says it, because Neil and Amanda are fantastic, marvelous artists and I love them both so much, and I really do respect them for their work, but holy shit THEY ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER.
Depeche Mode AND Thompson Twins?!
Neil’s a lucky guy, what taste!
Rum Sodomy & the Lash is one of the greatest records ever made.
oh Violator... She has good taste in music.
I was shocked that LPD is her favorite band, their pretty obscure. They're one of my faves too, along with vocalist Ka-Spel and cEvin Key from Skinny Puppy's The Tear Garden.
the wait-five-years is the perfect method for tattoos. it's saved me so many times.

So amazed Neil Gaiman didn't get a Cure album. I was convinced Robert Smith was the main inspiration for The Sandman (Dream). Let down :(
He might have all their stuff :)
Dream is apparently based on a combination of Neil himself and Peter Murphy
I went to that exact store because of these two and I have to say I wasn’t disappointed at all lol
these were my OTP too. so sad about their breakup
@Amoeba, you guys should have Tom Waits appear on What's in My Bag.
We would absolutely love to have him in.
Amoeba, that would be really cool
Elliott and Pinback!!!!!!!! good taste.
It was Spider Stacey who employed the beer tray to forehead percussion effect, not Shane McGowan, he was probably gripping the mic stand for steadiness with one hand while the other held a drinking implement...
This is the coolest couple of our times Love tjem
You have impressed me with this tribute of Legendary Pink Dots
Just think about those poor saps who sold their books for cigarette money who never ever realized they were going to be picked up and read by Neil Gaiman and Amanda Fucking Palmer!!
If only they'd known…
(From now on, I'm putting a personal autograph and dedication into every book I sell, just in case she buys it… ;^)
Lou Reed´s BERLIN
I have that issue of Mojo magazine! That electronica CD was great!
My favourite episode
I get that all the time regarding my trident eyebrow ring thing that I have...
I'm pretty sure Amanda Palmer is trying to look like Charlotte Rampling in The Night Porter
You're my favorite for knowing that.
YES!
and Jean Seberg in A'bout De Souffle
GREAT CALL!!
Seen Legendary Pink Dots twice, once solo and once opening for Skinny Puppy in Amsterdam.
Edward I once met him at a record fair, I said hello and he was like stunned somebody said hello to him. He is a bit of a weirdo.
I saw LPD one too, when Niels was still with them. I tried to record a don't for a friend, and Niels kept blinding the camera with the light in his sax. I've seen Puppy a few times too.
This video just makes me like the two of them even more. Diverse and eclectic tastes--not surprising, but still cool.
I want a list of what they found in their bags, I couldn't listen to most of the names but everything looked and sounded so cool!
Gawd her music pics 🦄🌟🔥💗
you guys have great tastes. i have great taste wow! there's great things being made
Nice music pics - I am familiar with much of this music :D
First "what's in my bag" featuring books? XD
When Neil held up the Neutral Milk Hotel vinyl I gasped...I want that terribly.
Good choice buying that Pogues album!
They're so adorable together :D
masterpiece. simply.
I was hoping to see Amanda Palmer do 'What's in my bag.' Neil Gaiman is just a bonus.
I agree with them both at the end. Neutral Milk Hotel - Aeroplane over the sea - best.record.of.all.time.
She wears that tshirt almost as well as Jean Seberg. The Thompson Twins were experimental and kind of hip before they went poppy
Thanks for your support to the Legendary Pink Dots, Amamda.
Neil backstory behind Berlin is cool and way to relatable
