As I read this, I am listening to ‘A Thousand Kisses Deep’ by Leonard Cohen – no joke. That’s a little bit frightening, actually…

On The Essential Leonard Cohen CD I have, I thought a picture of him looked like Dustin Hoffman.

Why isn’t his music well known here in the US? I found out about him through the movies Pump Up The Volume and Secretary. His music is moving.

You’d be surprised, actually. Look at the NeilHimself YouTube channel and hear Mr. Gaiman’s lovely speaking voice.

They Live just doesn’t get the respect it deserves. Read that however you see fit.

Wow. Kevin Murphy. Two wrestling references in one weeks time. You are a god to me, sir.

Identification verified. Sorry about that, Mr. Gaiman, but this IS the Internet, after all. Thing is, I was pronouncing it right until I started working with all those geeks. Blame it on my environment.

Hi, Jason.

Jeffrey, I’d like to side with a fellow KPFT DJ, however Neil himself corrected me when I met him and said his name wrong (Guy-man instead of Gay-man). It’s definitely ‘Gay-man’…

How ’bout a link to this very blog on Neil’s homepage?

http://journal.neilgaiman.com/

Or were you seeking verification that Neil knows how to pronounce his own last name?

Forgive my skepticism, but I want verification. I just haven’t figured out what that would be yet.

Neil printed my message in his blog today. But like the dork I am I forgot to sign the content, so he didn’t print my name.

Look up Philip Glass and you’ll see what Neil would look like if he aged.

Well, there’s an FAQ on my website, http://www.neilgaiman.com, that says how it’s pronounced.

And people who work in SF and Comic stores always know everything, but they are mostly wrong.

Their microphones actually aren’t the same…and Cohen’s French-Canadian turned monk now in his early 70’s with a bit of white hair and played guitar.
Neil Gaiman is British on the otherhand played drums (I think)

So perhaps they were part of the same band long ago…but they’re both among the greatest artists in the weaving of tales.

I work at a used bookstore. Some of my fellow employees are comic and sci-fi fiends. They say it rhymes with Diamond. I know better than to argue with comic/sci-fi fiend used bookstore employees, especially if I can’t escape them for eight hours.
