Oh, The Crimea are playing sometime, too? I maybe should have put them in the list. John Peel said "Lottery Winners on Acid" was the best single he'd heard in years, which was overstating the point a bit, but it's certainly charming
Hahaha, I heard that song and thought of you! How sad, I don't know you But I love it too, but Giddy Stratospheres edges it, because it doesn't sound like Elastica at all, whereas Lust in the Movies does slightly
Worth seeing next week, d'ya think? Mine: 1, Beton Brute 2, Boy Kill Boy 3, The Long Blondes 4, Drive-By Argument 4, The Semi-Finalists 5, Protocol (I fear) 6, Guillemots 7, This Et Al 8, The Robocop Kraus 9, The Automatic 10, Tiny Dancer
Today, I have mostly been too energetic to revise for my exams, thanks to the following: Twelve (not a patch on Thirteen, but nothing compares to the most thrilling 4 minutes and 7 seconds in the history of recorded sound) - !Forward Russia! Area - The Futureheads Lust in the Movies - The Long Blondes Apes Aping Apes - The Robocop Kraus What's Your Damage (Alan Braxe & Fred Falke remix) - Test Icicles
But Boyd is' date=' what, 19? And he doesn't see any problem with dating her. My conscience is clear :'] But it doesn't matter, because she has been displaced: Elle on the plane yesterday, with curls in her hair and rouge on her cheeks, was just divine
I've tried to enjoy Hendrix and jazz and raga shit, and there was a time when I thought I did, but I realised I was fooling myself. You know what, I really think they might sound half-way decent to my ears if I did drop some acid... ...but that's not going to happen, because of popTart's Rules of Pop #46: "Pop should be made to sound good while the listener is high on alcohol and/or Prittstick, since these are the stimulants most readily to it's core audience." Therefore: Captain Sensible - 1 Hendrix and Johnstone's raga-shit - 0
Judging by the places he's playing - both the venues and the cities - it doesn't look like we're gonna get the full Las Vegas stage show that his last tour seemed to consist of. It's a pity, as he's a star and he should act like one. I'll still go, mind
I've nowt at all against the 60s. Infact' date=' it depresses me that music will never matter as much as it did then. However, I do have a considerable amount against the deification of Jimi Hendrix, and against the [b']70s, but that's for the other thread...
I got my hair cut like him a while back! Without the blonde bits. He's a bit weedy tho, I imagine the lassies might lean more towards that brute Ryan Nelson
I haven't, but unless he's a psychologist or mathematician, I don't see why what he has to say about religion should be of any importance. Not that I respect these two professions (I didn't watch the recent BBC programme about the roots of religion, because it was presented by Professor Robert Winston - a psychologist) you understand, but they are at least fields whose research might impact on religion. In the programme billing, he was just described as "scientist". What kind of scientist is he?
