Did you ever listen to ‘Radio Indie Pop‘. If not it’s too late. As it appears to have done the way of the betamax video. Its died and looks unlikely to air again. Indie pop radio was a free online radio station where you selected the kind of music you wanted to listed to based upon the day of the week: Monday was chilled out and relaxing music to break you into the week whereas Friday and Saturday were more aggressive and designed to get you into the mood for going out for the weekend. And to add to it all they had an eigth choice - Ramones Radio. The Ramones 24/7. Which is an idea of complete genius.
I also used to use Pandora but thats US listeners only now - so that’s fooked as well. Read the rest of this entry »
Quick post to say thanks to the lovely Sanna (the cute girl on the right) @ The Vagabond Set for letting us borrow/use one of her lovely images - this one is from the photo set listed on her post ‘Dont look now mum‘. For the eagle eyed amongst you the lyrics are pinched from Freak Scene by Dinosaur JR. One of the greatest songs ever written in my humble opinion.
I went out looking for a pair of flared cords at lunch time on the Internet and couldn’t find any. So instead I decided to buy some new trainers. I almost bought a fake pair of Bape Sta off of ebay but couldn’t get my head around it - it would feel like I’d soiled myself. So instead I went for a pair of the Puma RS100 Emergency trainers I’d had my eye on for a while.
I have no idea who these folks are but they make some kick ass websites. Lovely to look at anyway. They’re called Gelo Factory and they make the kind of websites that are a joy to wander through.
Joe’s Jeans
Joe’s Jeans sell clothes would you believe but they have some of the cutest models I’ve seen on a fashion site for a while. When was the last time you saw a girl hitching up her skirt on the homepage of a fashion site? On that point when was the first time? Joe’s Jeans do - and she’s hot.
This weekend was a nice relaxing one. Party on Friday night and then a stroll around Edinburgh on Saturday. All in all very nice and relaxing. Sunday was spent getting in touch with folks about general stuff (like Stereolab tickets) and other such nonsense.
Anyway its Moday, its raining (again) and looks like being a thoroughly miserable day with little to brighten the outlook. So I thought I’d put up some pics of cute girls to help everyone get through the day.
I love ‘Last Nights Party‘ - the books great too. the Urban Pinup gallery is one of my favourite image galleries on the Internet. Below is one of the best they have.
For a while I’ve really enjoyed the music of Daniel Johnston. It kinda started at a BMX Bandits gig where they were playing one of his songs “Do you really love me” - its in the video below (not the gig I was at unfrotunately). Last night ‘More Four’ - a channel four offshoot showed the movie of his life “The Devil and Daniel Johnston”. Read the rest of this entry »
God knows how I started listening to Katy Perry but she brightens up my day. And with the help of YouTube I can now share her with you. Once you’ve watched the video go and get a copy of ‘UR So Gay’. It seems so inoffensive when she says it. And it features my song of the moment ‘Use Your Love’. Yeah its a bit US College rock but there’s nothing wrong with a bit of that from time to time.
