Anyone still about?
ECHO - CHO - cho - cho ... apparently not!

I'm listening to this:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2yy141q8HQ&ob=av3el

what're you listening to?
(berk, Thu 13 Jan 2011, 23:09, 202 replies, latest was 15 years ago)

I'm watching Hot Fuzz.
It's excellent. I much prefer Pegg and Frost to those twats Horne and Corden.

EDIT: I fucking love that song. Electro-Shock Blues is one of my favourite albums ever, and Beautiful Freak is while not close behind, it's in the top 20.

To be honest
I don't even see how you can compare the two. Although I'm not sure about their new movie 'Paul'. I'll probably end up seeing it anyway though.

Tenuous
but I'll give you that. Corden and Horne should be doused in 50/50 piss/petrol and set alight though, whereas Simon Pegg and to a lesser extent Nick Frost I actually like and enjoy.

One of my many nicknames apparently is a pastiche of something from Gavin and Stacey.
DEAR LORD.

Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Thu 13 Jan 2011, 23:18, Reply)

Christ, I'm so sorry
I actually liked Gavin and Stacey the only time I watched it, but I was absolutely pissed off my face and it was 4am, so my estimation of it then probably far exceeds what it would have been sober..

It's "Dozzla Pamlar Gavlar", no idea what the fuck it means.

When signing up for the gym, my friend kept writing down "D___" as my name on the class-sheets
had to remind her that it's NOT my name, and it wouldn't correspond even slightly with the name connected to my membership.

I like most of them, though only certain people are allowed to call me certain things. Otherwise I get really confused.

I've just put on Joanne Shaw Taylor's new album
I got very excited when I got home and saw it had arrived in the post. Critical opinion to follow soon, but in the meantime the CD is cleverly designed to look like a miniature vinyl LP, to the extent that the normally shiny underside is black.

That's quite awesome
bet it didn't have a crow drawn on it though :P
(berk, Thu 13 Jan 2011, 23:21, Reply)

Haha, it didn't. How did you guess?
Sadly I don't think the delightful Ms Shaw Taylor shares my crow obsession. I'm sure she'd understand if somebody were to explain at great length why they are amazing birds.

Still, first track has been fuckin' awesome so far. If she can keep this up it might be even better than her debut...

I'm not sure I've ever heard of her

There's actually a surprising paucity of good quality clips...
Still, this one should explain the hype (instrumental SRV cover):

Well
perhaps not quite to the extent I suspect you do, but yes.
(berk, Thu 13 Jan 2011, 23:45, Reply)

*sheepish*
I saw her in concert last year and she was totally amazing and leagues ahead of the other two bands that were on and after the set she walked right past me and then she walked past me again and I got very excited like a small child and my friend laughed at me...
(LongJohnBaldry, Thu 13 Jan 2011, 23:48, Reply)

Haha!
I admit, I can't laugh too hard as I made a total ass of myself when I found myself face to face with the lead singer of a band I like. At least you were only giddy and not spouting drivel right in their face.
(berk, Fri 14 Jan 2011, 0:00, Reply)

My friend did suggest I should say something to her,
but I remained (vaguely) composed and asked what I could actually say to her without making a complete tit of myself. But seriously, she passed close enough that I could have grabbed and run off with her, laughing maniacally. (This is, of course, one reason why I asked said friend to come to the gig with me, to prevent such eventualities, however unlikely.)
(LongJohnBaldry, Fri 14 Jan 2011, 0:04, Reply)

Composure is good
remaining silent but wistful a few feet away is better. I could learn from your example.
Are you coming to Tayyabs btw?
(berk, Fri 14 Jan 2011, 0:10, Reply)

Currently not. Though I've been thinking increasingly that I'll kick mysel if I don't.
Current reservations are
1. I haven't thought of a good excuse (read: white lie) to tell my friend
2. I can say with reasonable certainty that I'm going to be rather worse for wear by 6.30 that Saturday, so I'm not entirely sure that my system will welcome a massive influx of curry.

On the other hand, of course, it would be lovely to see you all again.
*chews knuckles with indecision*

At any rate, I should probably have gone to bed approximately one (very good) album ago, so remind me to resume this conversation tomorrow morning. 'night!

You find out Shadow's first name.
Put that into Wiki when you're done. I think the Norns say something about mistletoe while he's on the tree, though, so it's just explicitly saying something that if you're Genre Savvy you'll have worked out. A bit like the Mr Wednesday thing.

I kicked myself for about 10 minutes over the Low Key thing...

I used to love Norse Mythology
Always liked Loki. He may have had 3 monstrous children, but he seemed decent enough. I don't like how he was bezzies with the Gods then they fell out :(

Dressing Thor up as Freya was a dick move.
But kind of really, really awesome.

Nope it was definitely
Michael the archangel (or possibly Gabriel) being released. He acted as a sort of malfunctioning deus ex machina

I do have one called The Chronicles of Wormwood, about the antichrist shirking his responsibilities to bring on Armageddon.

I love all the songs on this, apart from Truce and Slide (672 doesn't count as a song)

Listening to The Perfect Fit.

I remember singing the Jeep Song in Music.
I do find it drags a bit though.

He's written the 3rd episode of Doctor Who.
No idea what it'll entail but I'm so so so excited.

I need to buy the rest of the Sandman, I think I have up to volume 7. Read it all, though. Cried like a baby, and of course got angry with Lyta for causing the whole kerfuffle. They're thinking of making it into a TV series... EEEEEEE

What Roota said, though
At least they're not going to cram it all into 2 hours or so. Apparently it's teh people behind Supernatural, but I've never seen it, so can't say how good they are.

In Manchester she thanked everyone for coming to see them even though Morrisey was playing the same night
and then did I Know It's Over.
Then our coach broke down and I had to try and unite the Dresden Dolls/Morrissey/Take That fans, all trying to get back to Liverpool and stuck at a Manchester crossroads.
