Halleluiah Why?

Now last night I found out that I probably won't be able to make it down to Primavera... I ticked all the boxes, found myself somewhere to lay my head, found myself a ticket... but failed to tick the last and somehow most important box: the epic trip from London town to Barcelona...
Strong of a promise by Easyjet to sell me a cheap ticket, I started my quest for all the other components of my 36 hours trip, only to find out that Easyjet had increased their prices six-fold by the time my quest was completed...
Three immediate reasons why I hate Easyjet:
- Extras are paradoxically included by default in their flights and you need to go through so much effort to take them out. WHY?
- Colours!!?? Why do cheap airlines have to use such irritating colours? WHY?
- Stopping me from meeting my destiny in Primavera Sound. WHY?

I haven't washed for a couple of days and barely made it out of the house in 36 hours, so what a breath of fresh air it was to find out that the great Why? from Northern California are to play in London on the 30th June after their little european errands...



Check their music too...

Monday 26 May 2008

On Saturday, I held a Eurovision party at my house. People were drinking a lot and laughing very loud whilst my friend Dave and me were holding hands praying for Sebastien Tellier to win the supreme prize.



And God he deserved it, Azerbaijan deserved it too, and the pretty greek girl could have snatched it as well... But the Russians!!?? The Russians??!!?? I said I'd rather cut off my genitals and eat them instead of watching the Russians go home with the trophy... Well... Sometimes making concessions becomes a matter of survival...

Fight for the Dodos

A few months back, I saw the Dodos in LA. My friend Melissa took me there and they were amazing... After that we went off to get a nice steak from a nearby restaurant, the steak was nice and the Pinot Noir expensive...



They've just been signed by Wichita, I'm glad.
That means that soon they'll be on this side of the pond, and I'll take my friends to see them and we'll got for some pricey wine too...
