Sometimes I Photoshoppe






Music in 2008 & Fight Like Apes rant.

Hi everybody,

For the first 9 or so months I've been listening to music in 2008, I've found that most of it has been shite. Then I heard the new TV on the Radio album, and now my friends are going to have to listen to me going on about it until I put it on the stereo. Much like the way I've been going on about the Fight Like Apes album over the past month or so, it's excellent. Before I heard it wondered how they were going to make an album that would live up all of those great ep's and what not. I just didn't think they were capable of an album, I mean a proper album, not just singles and a few fillers. My oh my how they pulled it off, fantastic stuff.
Also, while I'm at it, I've been looking at a few peoples blogs going on about how they're beginning to be annoyed by FLapes, how "something global" is a real contrived single, and how they preferred the old versions of "Jake Summers" and "Lend me your face" how sad it is that as soon as an Irish band release something genuinely exciting that all the people "who preferred" the ep's go on about the glory days of FLapes circa 2006. Maybe we should just be proud of them because they're from our city and are sound and are absolutley fantastic.
Oh yeah, this year I've also been listening to Neon Neon and British Sea Power and then I listened to the new Cold War Kids album and then I didn't like it much.

Blog Friend

I was out on Friday night, and for the first time ever, someone said, "are you the guy from the blog?" This took me back a bit seeing as how they're are about two people who read this thing, me and my bro. Anyway, his (Thom) blog is excellent, so go check it out (John).

Small Talk

"How's things?" "Grand thanks, how are things with you?" "Oh grand thanks, what are you up to these days?" "Ah y'know, same old same old" "What have you been up to?" "Ah y'know, got back from Canada, having cans" "How was Canada?" "Ah it was grand" "Good stuff".

New look for me aul blog.

I love making my blog look nice, well I don't love it, but it's grand. The blog has seen some changes over the past year or so now, this one I think is the best, although Dre will always have a special place in my heart.
I dislike the way on Bebo people "say" stupid things, like "I'm bored" or "Can't wait til the weekend".
