Sinister: habibi, habibi

[Dirty Vicar]

hey hey hey,

C'est moi, le Sal Vierge, qui à vous parle.

Myself and special friend Rener are back now from our fab holiday in the
Fucking Lebanon. The Lebanon is not a very indie country, in fact non-stop
pop music is the order of the day. But it's really good pop music, not like
the shite you hear in the charts over here. Still, Rener did meet someone
who recognised her Study In Stow t-shirt, but sadly he was American. She
also met a nice taxi driver who wanted her to stay another two weeks in
Beirut with him, but for some reason she choose to come back to dreary
Dublin.

And it's so dreary here. I mean, I know it's always nice in the winter when
you get to wrap up warm and stuff, but does it have to piss rain all the
time? that's what I want to know.

Meanwhile I'm all excited at some upcoming gigs here... next week Luna are
playing here, and this pleases me because I enjoyed them at the Bowlie
Weekender and like their cover of the mighty Serge's 'Bonnie & Clyde'. A few
days after the Jimmycake (who are very good) are playing a gig supported by
THE CHALETS (who are the best band in Ireland). This will kick arse, let me
tell you. Beyond that we're drifting too far into the future to know what
will happen.

Over in the world of the Bowlie Forum, there is a monster get together
planned for Manchester in a few weeks. I think nearly everyone from These
Islands is going. We're all going to stay in the same hotel and have key
parties and riots and stuff. It will be cool, much cooler than anything this
list has done in my time on it.

that's enough for now.

Smash Imperialism.
