38: All THE HITS are on the first side!

I feel sad when all the hits from an album are on the first side. I feel like people will overlook the 2nd side of the LP. This is something that worries me from day to day. Sometimes I have nightmares about it, other times it is just a daydream at work. Whatever, it's hard to deal with.

......Just think, some people could've overlooked some absolute gems.

...The hits arn't ALWAYS on the first side, though. Look at 'Songs of Leonard Cohen'; side 2 is basicly the 1966 hit parade for depressed single men.

Just make sure you listen to side 2 of Meddle by Pink Floyd.

37: Get well Leonard

Here is me with Leonard Cohen. Let's hope he is fine and well... EDIT: He is fine!

35: What's dub gotta do with it?

New sounds on the RGC myspace... HERE

Hope you are all well, I am very cold this evening. There is some total trash on the TV too.

For Steve...

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.
