    Indietracks Festival / all things C86 and indiepop!

    I loved The Fireworks version at the end of the Indietracks set; although Matthew seemed slightly nervous, it went down brilliantly. It's funny; on my way to work this morning I was thinking of some of the early female-fronted bands that could be included quite happily on an indiepop...

    That would be crazy... that would be like keeping the pillow case she rested her weary head on in a plastic bag and occasionally opening it up and inhaling deeply...

    No probs Shaun, just PM me your address. I genuinely thought you were going to collapse at some point during your set in the church - it was sooo hot and you were really going for it; one of my highligts of the weekend. By the way, me and Andy are looking forward to DJing at this; Tiny venue...

    Was that at the Sugarhouse? My mate Ajay went to Lancaster University back in the mid-80's and started running his own club night called The Brix Club, named after the rather delightful Mrs ME Smith. I sent him a mix tape and called it "Brix Brix Take Off Your Knix And Show Us Some Of Your...

    The Daily (Hate) Mail - RIP?

    The Daily Mail's spurious claim that The Guardian is "the paper that helps Britain's enemies" is nicely shot to pieces by the world's press: http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/oct/10/guardian-democracy-editors

    Are you a bedside dunker?

    It's been all over Twitter and Facebook for the last day or two.

    Are you a bedside dunker?

    There's some funny stuff on there, but how come Mumsnet are allowed to swear and we're not?

    The handbook issued to Americans soldiers in Britain during WW2

    This is one of the best books about WWII that I've ever read: Studs Terkel - The Good War It's an oral history of the war from 'every day' Americans and won the Pulitzer Prize for General Non-Fiction in 1985. I was shocked when I first read it because, ultimately, for the Americans, WWII was...

    IMF revises it's forecast of uk economy

    Income tax reduced from 50 - 45% for the rich whilst NHS staff are told that the 1% pay rise they were promised is no longer affordable. Manipulative *******s.

    Glad the CDs are still getting the occasional spin. I still have a volume II in mind, it's just that life has been very hectic over the last 3 weeks. Hopoefully things will calm down a touch now. Anyway, here's the new Joanna Gruesome video; a feast for the ears, maybe not so for the eyes?

    Russians working on homosexual medicine.

    Dr Etherton in Peacehaven believes that homosexuality can be 'cured', at least he did back at the end of the 90's when he was twice on 'Kilroy' espousing incredibly dodgy views and campaiging for 100 'correctional' centres to be set up across the UK. I very quickly joined another practice, the...

    She's an absolute honey (#127 in the series "Phrases I thought I'd never utter") I have been thoroughly enjoying The Black Tambourines of late. They remind me of a fab 4-some just a tad... Staly - how do I go about getting one of your awesome looking (sounding?) CDs please?

    The Daily Mail

    With respect, you really do not get it. The Thatcher death celebrations were news reported in all the media, not just the Mirror. Look, here's the Mail's version: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2306165/Margaret-Thatcher-death-parties-The-Lefts-sick-celebration-Brixtons-streets.html It...

    Because he was 19 and had noticed the little Englander island mentality?

    The Daily Mail

    Yeah, I regularly flick through the Mail but I always wash my hands thoroughly afterwards. I haven't mentioned the Mirror at any point, but it's a sh1t paper too. (And, just out of interest, what's with all the ellipses?)

    I'm supposed to be revising at home today for a very dull but important exam tomorrow. I'm finding Club 8 to be ideal background music. Karolina is bleedin' gorgeous and has such a beautiful voice *sigh*

    The Daily Mail

    Let's not forget the Daily Mail's open support for the French National Front, a sister party to the BNP, last year. Apparently the only reservations were over the leader's 'economic protectionism', not the fact that she is a massive fascist...
