These are a few of my favorite things,

Hats, scarves, Makers Mark,
Malteasers, cynicism, music, art,
The full moon, the sunshine, religion, cars,
Rainbows, rivers, kisses, stars,
Sparkles, magik, faerie wings...
These are a few of my favorite things.

Come on America, Dont be Dicks

Django Oh No!!

Quite possibly the most disappointing thing I've seen at Brixton Academy. Please note that this was posted 12mins after they had come off stage.

The group were clearly overwhelmed by the magnitude of the O2 Academy and making an attempt to overcome this, managed to playing their instruments to death - rather than letting the sound man do his job. This made them sounded like a group of angry teenagers trying to make a point by thrashing the hell out of their instruments. While the group did their best to make as much noise as possible, murdering almost ever track on the self-titled Mercury Prize nominated album, credit where credit's due, the requiem was at least played out in tune.

Please note: this was not the WORST thing I've ever seen at Brixton, but it was the most disappointing. Fantastic album, yet to prove themselves live.

Ignorance IS bliss

To learn is for the pleasure, 
Knowledge is an art,
Paranoia, guilt and shame,
The burden of being smart.
