Wow!
Usual excuses, really busy, no computer at home, internet cafes rip my soul out through my toe cuticles, blag blah blah.
How good does Blogger look since I last posted? Lovely. Profiles and everything!! Can't get my pic on there though, the only places I have with portraits have ridiculously long URLs. What's with a 68-char minimum? Must be some reason I guess.
So much has been happening recenlty, both personally and in the world at large, that I really don't know where to start (bearing in mind I've got 10 mins before I have to crack on with work again). So I guess the number one most exciting thing that's happened recently was Wednesday evening. I went with a couple of friends to see Bill Drummond launch his new website, and at the end he was signing posters, for sale as limited edition souvenirs. Numbering them he was. And I managed to land Limited Edition signed poster #23!! How excited was I? Shaking I was, shaking! I'm waiting on pay-day to get it framed along with the ticket from the evening to validate it, but number 23!! From Bill Drummond!! Keith Allen got #1, but that just goes to show how much he knows, the freeloader.
God I've become a sad git. First Kareoke, now spoddy signatures. What next? It'll all end in mullets I'm sure.
If you want more information on why 23 is special, read The Illuminatus Trilogy. In fact read it anyway, it's brilliant and has subtly informed popular culture for a quarter of a century.
Oh, and keep your ears open for Willy DeVille's new album, Crow Jane Alley. It should be out around September / October, and is fantastic.
Right, I need a gasper and to get back to work!
