Fuck it, it’s the Weekend
Christ that whinge of depression about our electoral system was a bit of a damp squib thrown onto our weekend plans wasn’t it. Fuck that for a game of soldiers, this is a bloody great weekend and I am bloody looking forward to it and there is going to be plenty of fun to be had, so enough sulking and time to be cheerful.
Tonight there’s cutting and pasting and putting together the samplers for the launch party tomrrow. I also get the first samples of the Nightjar album, getting us within a week or so of our first official release. Tomorrow is seeing a couple of old mates for the first time in ages, and trawling charity shops for some first class silliness for the launch night itself. Then Sunday is calming down, sleeping off a monumental hangover and generally relaxing.
The sun is out, things are fun, and in general the only worry is that I fight off the temptation to go out and drink too much beer and never get my samplers put together for tomorrow. Sunshine, booze, music. It’s a simple recipe but nevertheless and completely infallible one and today it promises a fine weekend of inebriation, joy and Toadery.
Neko Case – Star Witness
Elk City – Los Cruzados
Ravens & Chimes – General Lafayette! You are Not Alone!
R.E.M. – Fall on Me
I’m sure you’re still convalescing, but how did the launch party go? Wish I could’ve been there.
