Same with Psychic TV, Throbbing Gristle and all things Genesis P-Orridge at that same time.
HP Lovecraft for sure.

wow, really?
i mean, i like to have a pretty obsession-free life. i wake up every morning
to the buzz of my snoopy alarm clock, throw off my snoopy blanket, take
a shower and put on some clothes, usually a snoopy shirt. then i check
out the comics page in the newspaper. then i go to work. the sheriff's
deputy who works the front door calls me "snoopy" for some reason.
i come home, i unwind by playing snoopy vs the red baron on ps2 and
putting in a peanuts dvd. i fire up the computer, with my snoopy desktop
pic...check snoopy out on ebay and amazon and flickr and youtube...then
if i feel like cracking open a book, i'll pick one of the complete peanuts
collections to chill out with. then when it's time to sleep i get into some
snoopy christmas pajamas and out like a light.
although i think i'm getting better. my current desktop pic is a live shot
of kim gordon onstage from last year. she's holding her ol' reliable bass.
you know...the one with the snoopy sticker on it.
i have sooo many shirts and figurines and books and stuffed snoopys it
borders on frightening. i have the peanuts and snoopy monopoly games.
posters. greetings cards. i have snoopy panties. snoopy handbags.
complete collection of the mcdonalds camp snoopy glasses from the 70s.
in fact i once spent over 200 dollars at the camp snoopy in pennsylvania.
okay, okay...i would also sell my own blood and hair to get THIS:
