I hate to lie awake at night.

For all your Snoopy whims: here.

Some more monochrome

All a bit quiet of late…

Thom Yorke stole my moves.

A band I always assume are working on something, then am wholly surprised when it’s actually released. Heard no news/ads/hype of a new album (not that i’ve had my ear to the Radiohead ground), only to have this appear three days ago. Video directed by Garth Jennings (him and Thom Yorke British showbizzz film pals?), plus 1,700,000 views in three days. Promising.

Go here to download.

I’ll just watch this one more time.

Overly blogged but, i’ll just watch this one more time.

Happy Valentines (?)

This song is everywhere, and it does induce the need in me to yell “Jeeeez Banana, shut your friggin gob OK?” like Juno (is this the best one liner? – quite possibly in my humble opinion), however it’s one of the best covers i’ve ever heard. The simple ones are the best. Well now i’ve brought up Cat Power, another favourite:

…Happy Valentines day and that. Go watch Blue Valentine? Read some Keats or Wordsworth? Head immediately towards your nearest pub?

All of the aformentioned.

Hello?

Aside from having a rather emo name, ‘Two Wounded Birds‘ are rather good. Bluesy. Surfy. Wah-wah’y.

They’re from Margate, having been to Margate myself, congratulations to them. My experiences involved joining a casino, watching people spend their income support (namely a chinese man wearing a suit and trainers too big for his feet), and feeling quite scared.

So how are we all doing today?

Yeh, me too…

This just makes me laugh. Happy New Year! (plus 10 days).

…and thats that. what a lot of fun.

Scott turned 23 last month but due to my lack of internet and the fact that all my free time has, until lately, been spent house hunting, I’ve only just got round to uploading the photos from his jumanji-themed birthday party.
What follows is a pretty accurate representation of how me and my friends like to spend our free time…

…but which is the real scott…?

crude cup-cake

Grrrrrrr…

Jonny’s interpretive dance routine of a cat. There are no words to describe this.

Jonny treated us all to a belly-dance. Seductive.

Competitve guitar-hero session. Some took it a little too seriously (jen)…

just chillin’…

oooo bruce

saucy scott

Jonny and Scott – the new ‘faces’ of dreamphone

The following day we followed up the party the best way we knew how, with a round of dreamphone

The best kind of gig venue…

Liz — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 21:02:37 +0000

Beach house played a gig in Manchester cathedral last friday. Easily the best venue I’ve ever been to. Sadly, my phone-photos don’t do it justice.

Top 3 songs of the night:-
1. Real love
2. Used to be
3. Better times
