Thought I'd come to the computer lab to avoid sending my flatmates as mad as me, the problem is I've developed a new addiction, no not Jack Daniels but Joy Division. More on this later but first, mark said 'philosophy student' and 'religion' as a fellow philosophy student I can share with you a great way to annoy overly religious god botherers. Ask them if an omnipotent God could devise a maths problem so hard that it could never be solved. they invariably reply that he could cos he can do anything, all you need do now is ask them whether or not God could solve this problem. A lovely little dilema for them, just remember only to use it on intolerant biggots and not decent people who just happen to believe in God. Rachel said 'I want to know who my crush votes are from' and 'vote for someone else not me' well OK, one was from me and I shall unvote as soon as I can work out how to vote for nobody cos the state that I am in at the minute a crush from me is the last thing you would want. Andrea (kitten mouse) said 'theremin' which reminded me of the last time I saw Mercury Rev play live. the theremin noises were not played by a theremin which I wouldn't have minded too much if it were not for the fact that they had one onstage which they pretended to play. Back when I first saw them live (It was my first ever gig, I was 15 and not all wrinkled and 22 like now) David Baker was still with them and he would not have stood for that sort of shit, he was a proper mad one, they had a flute player who came on and played with them for about 30 seconds and then left again, it's stylish to pay someone for 30 seconds work a night. Baker taped his head up while screaming into the mike as well, and then argued with the rest of the band, they didn't get on too well, he travelled separately for the entire tour and just saw them for shows. I think he should re join the band now, the album Boces was better than anything the talentless cunts have done without him whatever crap hype machines like melody maker might say. now onto my slight problem, I can't listen to the mighty Belle and Sebastian at the minute, or just about any other music, nothing at all in fact except for Joy Division. Every time I turn on my sound system I feel the need to listen to them, if I put on other music I just get bored with it in less than 5 minutes and have to stop it and play more JD. I think my flatmates are becoming a bit worried by this but the thing is I have been of the oppinion that JD are the finest band to ever exist for many years now and they just sound better every time you listen to them. This has been going on for a couple of days and it's kind of weird but I really can't enjoy any other music right now. Perhaps I can break it by listening to some Galaxie 500, it could work if I start with their cover version of Ceremony but I don't know if I can listen to other stuff by them. I'm even listening to a Minidisc of JD live in Preston right now. Hmmm time for bed I think night night owen PS has anyone got a suggestion for what to call my 6-a-side footy team this year...my current favourite is The Joy Division. PPS appologies for a couple of diary posts followed by an unhinged one.
