Guess I kinda couldn't say no...

So, a few cool things in the pipeline.

Broadcast Beach will now have a monthly night on the second last Saturday of every month at The Flying Duck in Glasgow. Check out the Myspace page for more details. I am super excited! The first one will be in May so I will post about it again nearer the time.

Secondly, James and I have a couple of shows lined up. The first will be in on the 24th of April in New York at Union Hall with the wonderful Jeremy Jay and the second will be with London indie-folk types Cherbourg at The Captain's Rest on the 7th of June.

Also I'll be putting a few zines over the coming months. The first will be from the utterly amazing Graham Kolbeins and will be available, god willing, within the next few weeks. It's pretty special! More details once the time is right.

Also...

Fuck off

This is hilarious. What a complete and utter cock.

Fuckin' Em All

Woof Woof

Tonight I went to see Young States at The Captain's Rest. Musically they were surprisingly good. Pretty unassuming indie pop. Nice guitar parts, really tight etc. etc.

Anyhoo, their bassist is fucking beautiful. I mean really though. I actually couldn't take my eyes off him. Floppy fringe, headband, perfect amount of chubbiness, porcelain skin, rosy cheeks, skinny jeans with big turnups, beautiful beige pea coat, ever so slightly camp demeanor, pouty lips, amazing adidas trainers. You know when somebody is so good looking you just want to beat them to a bloody, lifeless pulp? It was like that. He did this cute little back and forth thing with his knees when he played which was enough to make me melt. Just wow. I actually want to scream right now thinking about him. Pathetic, really.

I'd post a picture but last time I did something like that that a certain somebody with zero sense of humour got in a little huff about it.

In other news, I have 24 pence in my bank account so I'm relying on six pounds worth of clubcard vouchers for my lunch and dinner tomorrow. Happy days.

Oh yeah, and I'm off to New York on the 14th of April. Really happy days!

Currently listening (as if anybody gives a fuck):

Strange Boys - And Girls Club
The Strokes - Is This It?
Dan Deacon - Bromst
Young Governor - Virginia Creeper 7"

Cheers big ears!

A big thanks to all who attended the first Broadcast Beach night at The Halt. Fun times!

Marley & Me

The last 20 minutes made me weep like a teased vagina.

Lonely Financial Zone

Dan Deacon looks really cute on the cover of the new Plan B.

Watchmen was amazing.

Judee Sill's voice is fucking unreal. How is it even a thing that exists?

The Strange Boys album is great.

This photo is hilarious.

Don't Forget!

Glasgow folks, don't forget that the first Broadcast Beach night is happening at The Halt Bar in ONE WEEK! Yay!

No Hope Kids

So I went to see Wavves tonight.

Plaaydoh were opening. They were neither here nor there to be honest. I literally can't think of a single thing to say about them other than that their bassist's stage movements reminded me of Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers. Not a good thing, by the way.

Pens were better. Their image kind of rubbed me up the wrong way but they were definitely entertaining.

Wavves were actually pretty amazing. I like the record a lot but at times it's a bit too ramshackle and noisy for me. The songs definitely worked a whole lot better live and Nathan's songwriting ability was a lot more apparent. It made me excited to see what he'll come up with in the future. He has an obnoxiousness to him that got on my nerves a bit towards the middle of the set, but by the end I kind of liked how bratty he seemed.

I should go to bed soon as I start work at 8am (!) tomorrow. Craziness.
