TUNE
I've been meaning to get me a bit of Feelgood for a while. (Also a bit put out after our drummer rebuffed my suggestion of covering Milk and Alcohol)

As for me, well, this is probably going to divide opinion, but Talking Heads seems to be the best thing for keeping my head above the rising tide of panic at the moment.

their live LP (Stupidity) is fucking brilliant
as is the Going Back Home DVD live in Southend. How could anyone not want to play Milk & Alcohol?

I was hoping to catch the film they made about them
Oil City Confidential, I think have on good authority, thank you Cave Duck, it was called. Unfortunately it seems to have dropped off the radar. Might be time to peruse Amazon.

As for Milk and Alcohol, I thought it would have fitted nicely with our style, and Lee Brilleaux's vocal style was probably something I could have mimicked. This is, of course, the trouble with having a democratic approach to the creative process and not ruling with an Iron Fist / Glove of Voltaire.

I recorded, but haven't yet watched Oil City Confiential
This naturally gives me a slight sheen of splendidness.

Then of course there's Wilko's work with The Blockheads..

I didn't know it was out yet. The trailer's excellent.

It had a very limited cinema release around February/March time
and, most frustratingly, was on at the National Media Museum in Bradford the night I was (sort of) driving past Bradford in order to take the family to see Lily Allen & Dizzee Rascal in Manchester.

Then the other Sunday I was flicking through the on-screen programme guide just before going to bed and was amazed to find that it was on.
I can't remember off hand which side it was on. But, as I'm cheap and only have pauperview rather than pay-per-view, it must have been either BBC4 or Film4 who tend to repeat stuff fairly regularly.
