In which I vanquish the undead but am nonetheless a bit grumpy on account of an early start

Further to the Making Of post, here's me killing zombies in the video for Brontosaurus Chorus' 'Louisiana' . And following up on my Spotify question , which got a lot of very helpful answers from musicians I know, it turns out that even someone at the level of fame of Robert Fripp is not making an acceptable amount of money from the service . Watching David Attenborough's Life (though I'm...

the surprising case of the post-30 hangover...

... age, like 30, past which the hangover gets even worse? and why does noone mention it? though i couldn't imagine them to be worse (well, maybe if i still smoked). oh how i envy barrysarll , a confirmed cider-drinker (the sweet stuff always hits me the hardest the next day), who describes being drunk as "a feeling of being at one with the cosmos" and any (rare) hangover he may experience as...

23.3 PINTS DAY* then...

...the merits of this. but i also realize it's because we're always trying to fit them in during just an evening, instead of being spread out over a whole day as was its original intention. barrysarll shows up and basically tag-teams out with duncan who is due to be on television early the next morning. i can barely remember most of our conversations, though what i do i am highly amused by...

Tube Walk 67 Photos

...: tubewalker would have liked these pylons, I suspect. We met miss_newham off the M25, as she got dropped off by her mum (she didn't, really). barrysarll demanding fealty from the denizens of the field. (Photo by nou .) roz_mcclure actually made friends with the horse. It ate miss_newham . (Photo by ...

when penguins have bad ideas...

... with the 3rd book of the series. so, clever man that i am, started checking my old lj entries starting from september 2004. it sort of blew my mind that this was before i had ever even met barrysarll and most of the people i hang out with now. not to bore anyone, but some quick highlights from this time when i was preparing to have my tonsils out and leave boston forever: my friend jim ...

wow...

i am MOST IMPRESSED with 'the hangover'. it was unbelievably great. go see it. see it yesterday. for years barrysarll has been pointing out how the romantic aspect of these types of comedies, "old school" etc., take away from them greatly and while in theory i've always agreed with him, i've always felt there was no way hollywood would make a film without a love plot (for whatever ...

augsburg day...

... songs): birthmark the way i don't kiss uneven pavements wonders never cease (mr solo cover) some sick day* fireworks at the end of a good day ditch the theory the whole thing was basically orchestrated by barrysarll who, after the last gig, told me i should stand up with the boa and rock out a bit more. when planning the gig, we decided to do exactly that, and when at a loss for what ...

'illuminatus!' then...

... between joe and ben - their right-on-ness when it comes to many things, not least of all music, and their scientific precision. so it was fitting that another man whom i greatly respect - barrysarll - should be the one to loan me "the illuminatus! trilogy". and finally bringing along the huge tome the night we went to that magical pub, the pelican, and rolled dice for free drinks. i ...

1812...

as i told barrysarll last night, if he chooses not to have a list for mini-albums in his yearly charts this year, so that i won't be competing with icecoldinalex , i will be forced to write a song called "AUNTIE Vs. Great Britton".

"layers of perpetual night"...

... to the streets last night in the hopes the remaining lyrics would come. which some did. and i opted to walk home from the park today wishing for more. and one line did, leaving one left to go. barrysarll told me today that he dreamt the h bird album was finished but before he had a chance to listen to it, he needed to go to the pub to give superman a pep talk. this must mean something -...
