"419" by Thumpermonkey, Tooting's finest Aztec Prog Metal outfit. This video and track still stagger me. The video in particular is an absolutely fantastic bit of work.
I should declare an interest - I recorded the drums for this (and the rest of the album). Can't wait to hear the finished article.

I do quite like those Drink Beer & Carry On t-shirts, but they've become inextricably linked to James May. Also, they don't come in fat knacker sizes (I am a fat knacker in case you weren't away, which seems a strange marketing decision for apparel relating to beer. As I posted the other day, Twisted Twee have a design that uses the certification stamp you find (or at least used to) on pint glasses in licensed premises. However, it's only available in a "Father & Baby" twinset, and - again - only in normal people's sizes. Anyway, thanks to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) damnspynovels we can now offer shirts with the stamp design, done properly (i.e. with a stencil font, as they used to be stamped on glasses) on a variety of shirts, via the excellent Spreadshirt. The first shirt below is a men's American Apparel - which goes up to XXXL (which will even be a bit baggy on me). I've also put up a "retro" shirt, and a ladies one as well. If you fancy one on any of the other products Spreadshirt do, let me know and I'll put it up there... although maybe it lets you do that anyway? I dunno. |

| Final plug - apologies for any annoyance |

There's a tube strike, but we're going ahead anyway. The venue is close to London Bridge (round the back of Guy's Hospital, essentially), meaning easy (ish )access via numerous buses and BR. If nothing else, you need to see Mr.B at least once. £3 in, first act on at 8.45 sharp. Hope to see some of you there.

| More Delonte West genius |
[Jun. 2nd, 2009|10:25 am] |
Again, credit to John Oliver and The Bugle for bringing this to my attention. Delonte West on his perfect Valentines day :
“So, I pick her up in my white convertible. From there, I’d have the music pumping on the radio. The Jim Jones pumping, you know, ‘Summer in Miami’ song pumping. Got to keep a little gangsta, you can’t be too soft. You can’t be in there playing some guy that’s crying, talking about don’t leave me and love me baby, wah wah and all that. So Jim Jones pumping and then from there, wind blowing through the hair, boom, we get straight to the point — we eat afterwards because I don’t want to kiss no onions. I don’t want to kiss you tasting like onions and steak and mushrooms and everything.”
“Yeah, we’re going to my yacht. We’ll pull up at the docks and got a guy waiting for us, open our door up and we walk down a lit-up dock and onto the yacht, where we have dinner set up on the boat and we just cruise out on the water. Sit down and have some dinner, some shrimps and steaks, keep it nice and breezy. Pop some bottles, some Moet Rose. The red Moet, we ain’t popping no Kristal, it tastes like urination. We ain’t popping no Kris, that’s $500 a bottle. It ain’t that serious. It ain’t going to get you drunk. Make sure you put that in there. We ain’t doing a $500 bottle, we’re doing a $99 wine and dine.”
“OK, so from there, we’re doing a midnight skinny-dipping jump. Alright? From there, hopefully she’s got money because I hope Jaws gets her, boom, make sure she got me in the will, bank, I’m good. Oh well, shark got her! Jaws got her. Nah, we ain’t going there.”
“One more thing: When we’re on the yacht eating, we’re going to have some Popeyes chicken. That’s for dinner. It’s to let her know, put a mental image on her mind, first and foremost, if you ain’t from the hood, you don’t like Popeyes chicken. Everyone there loves Popeyes chicken and the biscuits — phew. But that’s just getting it on her mind, saying, you know, ‘Yeah, I can wine and dine you, but I’m a little rough around the edges and I’m keeping it real with you. I can be romantic, but this is real, we’re going to eat some chicken tonight. Chicken and biscuits.”
What a legend.

 This is Delonte West, who (apparently) plays basketball for the Cleveland Cavaliers. In a recent edition of the excellent Bugle podcast, John Oliver uncovered a quite mesmering quote from West, which has tickled me ever since. “Bugs Bunny is the smoothest dude I ever met. You know he be chillin' like it just be a normal day and he- it be cold just like how it is in Boston and he just want to dive in the ground, pop up, he be like oh man this ain't Albuquerque. Thats got to be the tightest life you just hop underneath the ground and go! No traffic, no Mass pike, no tolls, no taking Yankee hats off- just underneath the ground...BAM...carrots...Albuquerque. It might seem crazy to you but it's just a different way of expressing myself. I think it's kind of freaky.” |
