I saw this just inside the door, on display with video and audio blasting. I could read it as named...yer peepers are just lookin' for somethin' nasty.

the few toones I watched sounded pretty good. I passed and bought the Dead instead.

What an intersting title. Comic book letterers were banned from using 'flick' as a written sound effect for a long time forthe same reason: it looked too much like f@@k.

I bought them both, can't wait to watch the Winterland show. Too bad the Stones didn''t put out a 1978 show too, that would've been a lot better than this Licks set.

Yeah. They're a bunch of flits. The whole lot of 'em.

What? What's that? It's flick? What the %#&@ is a flick?!

Thank you for saying this . . . I wanted to as well, but couldn't find a good way to word it.

Knowing the Stones, I have a feeling the two-way title is not entirely by chance.

Looked like Flicks to me, but I can see how someone might make the mistake while quickly glancing at it.


Maybe it's time to see that goofy image with the dolphins again.
