I had to admit that "The 40-Year Old Virgin" was not the predictable, mirthless pile of tosh its crass title and bold red-font poster suggested it would be
It actually made me laugh, even in spite of the cast including Seth Fucking Rogen.

Alt: I saw two good gigs last week - Ian Siegal was on excellent form once again, but I knew he would be. St Jude were better than I expected, having been a bit indifferent toward their album. (This is in no way connected with what amazing thighs their singer has.)

Where did you see St Jude?
I quite like their album, but it's not as good as I was hoping it would be.

They played The Borderline last Wednesday
(First time I'd been there as well, incidentally)
My friend was telling me they've blamed the production on the album not sounding as good as they hoped. Or something like that. They certainly translated better for me in a live setting.

I was hoping for a lot more having heard Soul on Fire
but the rest of the album just sounded a bit meh and didn't really grab me. I'll keep listening and see if it grows on me.

I like the Borderline, I saw Pete Murray there a while back.
