Hello chaps, I write to you at the wrong end of a glorious weekend in Paris, where I felt many bakers' pain. Au Chocolat. While other people were out being Sartre in the cafes or Freddie Mercury in the shoeshops, I was looking at paintings and churches. After that I did The Drinking. I bought the most expensive gin and tonic I've ever seen, and it started messing with my head. I don't know what they put in their gin in Paris but it made me crazy. Unfortunately I seemed to miss out on the SexyCool part of the CrazySexyCool package. I was more CrazyGibberingArsehole. That's what happened to me this weekend. And The Lucksmiths were especially wonderful. I like the Lucksmiths very much. I like them not having some embarrassing drummer who only ever gets off his drumstool to apply the Preparation H to his arse grapes of wrath. Some of my best friends are drummers. Johnny Marr and Oasis deserve each other, the wankers. If you go to Glasgow, don't go near that Alasdair Cooke bloke, because he'll have skinned you alive within seconds of meeting you. If you must talk to him, make sure you're not wearing a wristwatch and that your money is safely under lock and key. Last time I was in Glasgow I was accosted and followed by a wild-eyed, flame-haired loon whose devilishly handsome visage was betrayed by the insanity which lurked obviously in his eyes. He kept shouting "Gall! Gainsbourg!" at me and dribbling slightly. He wouldn't shut up until I felt his 'pain'. It was OK. Seemed to call himself McStaggered or something like that. He didn't glass me but he was waving the pointy end of a very dangerous looking Pastels badge at me. Ages ago, Oon mentioned her favorite coffee table reading:
1989 'how to shit in the woods': an environmentally > sound approach to a lost art
Yes and better still was its 1992 sequel, which concerned arborial constipation: 'I Can't Bear It'. Har. That's enough, baby that's enough. Tim x Oh yes and PS Marcus The Band of Holy Joy had their moments and those moments were awe-inspiringly brilliant. Which song? Did you get to keep the cub uniform? _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
