My latest hair-brained scheme is for my good friends at Junior. They need a poster you see, and I have this great idea for them. So great, that it involves a Monkey and a Typewriter. The only problem is I don’t have a Monkey or a Typewriter. If you have either of these things please let me know by email or by royal post if you feel so inclined. I hope to get it done before the summer comes.
In the mean time enjoy this by our old friends The Kinks, it sums up the torn conundrum I feel between whether I should be working or outside lapping up the sunny, sunny, sun.
A man far cleverer and much better read than me once said, “writing about music is like dancing about architecture”. That man is Eli Horowitz of Mcsweeney’s fame, and I have to say I tend to agree with him. So for now I will heed his words and leave you with this. This song is not new, nor is it hard to come by. But it is good – good in a lasting way.
Stay tuned young world shapers; I have some big things I need to discuss with you soon.
Well, I’ve had a brief hiatus sorting out insignificant things in my life like finding a steady source of income and milking the government for every cent of tax they owe me. Thanks to that I’ve now got a very small cushion of green, so it’s back to blogging. Don’t worry, I’m not going all serious on you; I’ve also balanced this out with some well-earned partying at fashion week. But what you really need to know is just this. I have been working for quite some time on tracking down the crazy deranged people who made the video for Architecture In Helsinki’s, ‘That Beep’. You all the know the one I’m talking about, with the blue people dancing like it’s the last song at Meredith and they just found a tab. It’s going to be in an upcoming issue of POP Magazine, and it’s possibly (definitely) one of the most entertaining interviews you will ever read! I will post it up here when it’s kosher to do so.
