Motel Motel @ Flowerpot 13.09.09


I went to Motel Motel at Kentish Town Flowerpot on 13/09/09 along with about 13 other people. I wasn't really impressed but they do have a good album, New Denver on Spotify. Or myspace if you'd prefer.

I did completely enjoy Micah P. Hinson when he played Cargo on 15.09.09. Completely beautiful.

I've recently fallen in love with the 19 year old Soap&Skin. She's from Austria and is incredible. Her debut album, Lovetune For Vacuum, is really quite something.

I have recently been quite into police dramas. I don't know why but they bring me a great deal of satisfaction. I have yet been able to catch an episode of any of the million CSIs because my television schedule knowledge is pretty abysmal. But, mark my words, I will one of these days!

When I haven't been stuck in front of the tv like a zombie, I've been to quite a few places. Birmingham, Brighton and Southampton. As well as my usual round of cinema trips and other things which are too silly for me to talk about or possibly even remember. But:

I went to Michael Nyman's debut at the Royal Albert Hall as part of the Proms. It was delightful. I had to stop myself from gasping and clapping every single moment and, despite having quite a busy day, I did not fall asleep like I usually do!


The Yolks
are a band from Paris. They started their Brixton Windmill set outside the venue and made their way up armed with one tambourine and sweet melodies. After accosting a table of unsuspecting lads (they were rowdy like lads are) they got on stage and preceded to make me smile for a long while.

Some of that was because the keyboardist, keyboarder, keyboardman looked like what I imagine a stick-on moustache embracing Natasha Khan would look like.

All of my recent outings have been without my camera so, unfortunately, I cannot dazzle you with my lady of leisure lifestyle. I'm sure you'd want to see a picture of me almost peeing myself whilst trying to scale a fence with the help of three men. I did do it, though.

I have actually been the worst at this thing. I'm on holiday until September, so will hopefully be much better but I'm promising nothing!





I have just come back from Venice. Completely too hot but it was truly splendid. I walked all over the place and saw lots of beautiful sights. And encountered some not so beautiful smells. Had pizza and ice cream everyday (not so good) and just had an extremely nice time. Here are a million pictures to illustrate my point.

I didn't buy that bag I was talking about. Bought a ChloƩ one instead. It cost three times as much but it is so very, very beautiful. Other things include Tabu at the Roundhouse, Rachel Stamp at Islington Academy, Big Night Out, Eve Club, Delia Derbyshire, Buttoned Down Disco, Birmingham, Stratford-upon-Avon and lots and lots of eating.
