Hear, hear. The "what have YOU done?" line was recently done by Billy Corgan as well btw, http://suckpolice.com/2008/11/billy-corgan-invites-heckler-onstage-at-the-united-palace-in-nyc/

Haven't seen in it for geographical reasons, but read about it in The Times a week or so ago. Title is from a Crystals song (availble on youtube), later covered by The Motels (available on Spotify). Quite controversial tune/lyrics at the time -...

It sure as hell has not gone away, but daytime it does not really bother me. And now I am using one of these relax applications (basically generate sound of "waves" or "rain" on the phone's speaker) when going to bed and that takes away the focus on the ringing. Seems to work so far. Found it...

I did my first test of the Elacins on Thursday (London's Stag&Dagger: a skinny-jeansed&chequered shirts hipster fest if there ever was one - but with a handful of good bands). I was quite impressed with the Elacin performance, there's a slight colouring of the sound, but overall it's just like...

Robert Rental/Double Heart - spotify:track:77UHHPBAcNVc8iFw1uOARl That is simply gorgeous. I recognise the name and it reminds me quite a lot of early Fra Lippo Lippi - try this if you are UK (Europe?) based: (Fra Lippo Lippo, "In Silence"), spotify:track:3VT1BpjeU7WmU8whpyAa7N

Spotted in Argos today (of all places). Woman around 30 dressed like Joan in MadMen, vintage tight-fitting dress, strawberry blonde hair is one of these knots pointing upwards and looking like she just walked off a film set. Never seen anyone dressed like her (even in London, but then I do not...

flat-fronted Farah slacks maybe? Can't find a picture anywhere, but they have some nice ones in dark blue with slanted pockets and a modern cut.

Gee-tar, still like and remember The Green Manalishi or Oh Well from late 60s (not that I heard it until the late 70s though). Fleetwood Mac being in that category of bands that exist in several good versions (like Roxy Music and Japan), <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie"...

Attention Scum - "I have the taller hat" (Simon Munnery, most of his things seem to have been removed)

> It's bound to be a mistake It is. Big Train, "Wanking in the office",

there's also the doppelgänger's close cousin, our own Norse "vardøg", basically the ghost of yourself, but slightly ahead in time of the real you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vardøger "a spirit with the subject's footsteps, voice, scent, or appearance and overall demeanor precedes them in a...

Clipped from The Times (headline "When it comes to being sarky, Sarko can't cut the moutarde"): "When they circumcised Herbert Samuel, they threw away the wrong bit". (Lloyd George)

yeah, but from what I can see (ie read on the net) the Elacin are supposed to be exactly the same (just branded differently), so I'll get these. Not too concerned over how it will look, my hearing is more important than worrying if I look like "grandad in the house"

Count me in. Started last year, but now it is getting serious, ironically I think the final trigger was me trying one of these hearing tests (to check what frequencies I can hear or not) on the iPod without turning down the volume first. And almighty blast at 13-14Khz or whatever hurt like...

Edit: A casual blog reader just reading comments? No way without access to the logs, unless the IP-address shows up in the comments? The owner with some assistance: If they had to yes (ie a legal agency with access to logs from both ISP and the site in question it) it should be trivial to get...

ehh - maybe I am blind, but where is the download link? (no Juke Trax on that FileFactory link)

There's a good piece in the FT today on IQ. http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/4add9230-23d5-11de-996a-00144feabdc0.html To me it seems like having a huge IQ (say 160+) seems (edit:at least for some) as useful as having one of the world's largest cocks or breasts. A tool that you can rarely use, it...

Dissensus Collaborative Spotify Playlist #1: re Playing Smaller Venues thread I've created a Spotify collaborative playlist with some of the tracks/artists + a couple of adds (None Hendryx and Reginald Milton) mentioned in the Playing Smaller Venues thread. Feel fry to modify if you have...

Not sure about life-changing, but if we are talking about impact on me as an individual,
