34: Adebayor is feeling the love

So, apart from Adebayor deciding to kick someone in the face, City beating Arsenal was the best day of the football season. This weekend we have to play Man United though... Adebayor banned, Robinho, Tevez and Santa Cruz all injured... I'm not worried though. Maybe I'm a liar. Anyway......

Listening to the new Do Make Say Think record, stonkin' effort. Maybe better than their last. Hope to see them live again soon.

My heroes of the week are Adebayor and Kanye West. More villains on the telly please!

September 11th was the busiest day on this blog for a while. 8 visits from Brazil, 2 from Minneapolis and some from Paris, Hamburg and London. Japan took a day off. Thanks everyone! Back later with treats.

33: ATP NY

I totally forgot I was going to go to ATP in New York and now I've remembered it's too late. It's this weekend (I think) so I guess I'll have to go next time if I can afford it then. Primavera in December though... I think. I have no idea about the setup of that thing yet, seems a bit weird. Get a ticket for december and may for 100 euro though, nice deal.

Nothin' much else too say too day. Ta ra.

Hello Germany.

31: Don't Let Our Youth Go To Waste

My night is starting it's 4th year of existence tomorrow. It's a bit weird to think I've been putting it on for so long. It's nice though, I guess. I wish I'd given it a better name; 'one step more and you die' is a rubbish name for a clubnight. It's not even the best Mono album. I need ideas to make it feel new and great again. New flyers and posters are the first place to start, I'm hoping to get some projections and more lights too. Then surely it will get busier again and be brilliant. Hopefully we'll get back on a saturday night soon too.

I just don't know.

Hello Duluth! Hope the music is coming along well and that you're Workin' Hard.

30: No one ever goes home with the barmaid

I have just heard that Malcolm Middleton is playing the Night & Day AGAIN! This is good news although it's a bit excessive don't you think? Anyway, it's part of John Peel night in October and will feature some other bands and Mark Radcliffe doing some DJ'ing. It's a Saturday night so maybe I won't leave early this time. Last time I was in the night & day watching this fella I gave my number to a barmaid... I still think about how much of a bad idea that was but it doesn't really matter. I have only given my number to a barmaid twice and there has never been any kind of response. So, despite it being a waste of time, at least there has never been any bad come of it.

Anyway, it's useless telling you these things.... I'll tell you that I got paid a terrible wage this week on account of work being dead and them letting me go home early a lot. I'll get a bad wage this week too because I've been far too busy being ill to even think about going to work.

Here is a link to a site which links people to this blog, it's cool and you should check it out...

One Step More... at Tiger Lounge on Thursday.

And also, thank you to people in Stuttgart. You seem to really like this blog!

Thanks,
