Spear Britney

So...update time.

Dears last night at ICA. Twas good, but some songs don't need to be buried in walls of feedback, shouting and sonics. Murray Lightburn was kinda cool, and def not the megalomaniac I envisioned him to be. And enough said about two female keyboardists in minis and high boots ok? I bet there's Fleetwood Mac stories in that band....

Support bands were so so...

..New Rhodes...well, we don't need another Television.

...Pure Reason Revolution...not bad, and any MBV style band is always worth a listen. Although one of the guitarists looked like he had turned up for the non-existent Kings of Leon auditions the ICA was holding that night

...Hann Premium. Arrr...if that swarvy brew were a beer, I would marry thee....arrrr...

Next morning. Awoke with little sleep. Raging headache, not enough coffee. Britney Spears and U2 on stereo all day ('Hey Edge, wanna make Beautiful Day Mk II?' 'Um, all right. Anything to get you in a studio instead of hanging with the Dalai Lama'). Slave 4 U still class all the way. Had many a discussion on the future of Brit re: trailer trash lifestyle. It's all down hill from here kids.....whee.........

Couldn't buy the Bright Eyes singles as I had no money. Sniff....apparently the new albums are themed. First one's about a boy who moves from the city to the country, the second is about the reverse. WARNING! WARNING! Concept catastrophe at 18oo HOURS! Ah Connor....bless him.
