Having just seen the piss poor british (dick van dyke style) New York act The Drums, who just try to hard, and sound too much like every music genre from the 80's uk scene. Here's a reminder of how great north america can be at quirky and different.
I know I mentioned joanna newsom before, and this is a classic for me.



Keep an eye out for her performances on Later.... with jools holland Friday night BBC2.
Oooh, it's election day and I am quite excited at the prospect of a hung parliament, can't wait for the results to start comming through, and unusually I can't stop hoping and thinking about hung, hmm hung, so many connotations, love it.

Right after the 3 main parties have had leadership debates, the Murdoch led parties have proved their agenda by supporting the tories, but then all media has to answer for their loyalties, unless your so so rich and you don't live in the country your trying to influence, Rupert Murdoch is a vile nasty self obsessed cunt, go ahead sue me.
No party right now in the UK deserves overall control, I am tired of the tories telling me we had 13 years of shit labour government, well even your lord murdoch abandoned the tories to support labour, and for 11 years the uk enjoyed massive prosperity till the scourge of bush 2.0 allowing the american banks to run riot over the economies of the world, (cough cough sub prime mortgages), this global situation was caused not by labour or the tories or any european parties, but by Bush junior and his failure to understand anything other than getting one over on his daddy, by doing over saddam. Thank fuck america has obama, yet the brits are in danger of electing another privelaged republican cunt, when we could could all make a choice to work for each other, I just hope Brighton in the UK does the right thing by electing the first green party MP.
I had to have 2 "enigineers" visit my flat this week, the first on monday who looked like matt hughes' older shorter hotter brother, to do my boiler safety check, if you don't know who matt hughes is well he is a porn star, blue peter badge for you.
Today I had a VirginMedia engineer turn up to replace my old cable tv box, but he was the spitting image of how david blane's older butcher brick shithouse sized brother would be, unfortunately I was trying to take a pic of his ass when he looked directly at me, so I didnt dare try again, cos the phone goes click and I ain't worked out how to turn the noise off. I need to start answering the door in my underwear, and faking embarressment. Thank god there is so much work still to be done on my building in next few weeks, shame the nice weather is set to end.
Spotted a few fox's, on camera tonight, kinda happy they are here,
I only wish all the cameras were working so I could snapshot them.
Here's hoping they bring the cubs round.
Had the cops in my flat last night, not for anything bad, I was/am a bit distressed yesterday, in a serious dark place. My friend called police when I didn't answer the fone quick enough, for fear I had done somit bad to myself. I got slightly aggressive on the cop cos he wanted to search my flat, I let him do his search, thank fuck I wasn't getting high. I am kinda shit, and have been for a while, but, I'm ok, just a bit grrrrrr. I apologise to anyone that I kicked off to. I am sorry I let it build so much, but I have to let it build, b4 I can let it go. I haven't let it go yet.
R.I.P. Malcom McLaren, fuck all the sex pistols crap, and Double Dutch/Buffalo Girls, I loved his other stuff.

The Bootzilla album and of course the classic Madame Butterfly.

It's a bit clipped & cut at end but still amazing.
King of chavs.

Ohh how I wanna ... this hideous biggot, Now I know most brits wont know who he is, but liviing in london this cunt turns up on telly every few weeks, claiming to protect the rights of workers.
Bob Crow I wil lick your balls for a lifetime if you can prove you ever did anything usefull, not including the usual shit, prove to me you helped tube workers, your constantly ranting, much like I do, but I only ever claimed to rant about myself, not on behalf of others, you nasty nasty bastard, actually you owe me a life of sucking my balls for having you control the tube strikes, you fat cunt, I want u so bad.
Yea I want that hot dusty load.
if your belly is wider than your height, then just die now.
Fucking raging about people being cunts.
It includes my so called friends, you allow people to take the piss out of you, but you fail to get a grip? You stupid cunt, is your medication messing you up more than mine?
Catching up on a few things was totally exhausting,
It's tough being nice.
Breaking Bad is back for series 3, which was awesome.
South Park is back "mcboogerballs" was good.
Why did I not bring my elite xbox back with me to London?
AAAAAAAARGGGGGGGGHHHH. Fuck it, so annoyed at so many people.
Tho strangely not at me, for once I did nothing wrong.
I will save the freakout for another time.
Woohoo back home in London.
Thanks D&G.
I bought a coffee table for 1st time today, what's that all about?
Oh yea, another thing to pile stuff up on, tho it has a shelf so I can pile things underneath also, hehehe.
New phone, new limits?
Nah, this place dosen't change except I am now almost as anonymous here as I am at Home. That's gonna be cool till I bump into someone I know by accident.
That's Devon for you.
Off away for a week or so to stay with friends.
I am not sure it's a gr8 idea...
I may be wrong?
Saw this banksy today in the flesh, well passed it on the bus and it's behind perspex now, which apparently gets sprayed over regular, so was kinda cool to catch it in the clear. Shame it wasn't a nicer day to see it.
Fucked up my Wii again yesterday, once I finally got it working again I actually kept copies on a disc so when i forget how much hassle it is to fix, i can just go back to start. Pheww I can sleep now. 2moro it's get all the extras......
Woohoo. Built my new bedframe today, dismantle of old bed, and build of new, single handed, about 3 hours, sleeping on an even mattress. should be priceless?
People are hell.
Lies and unspoken truths make us all miserable.
If a friend dosent tell you everything? does that make them a liar?
if they do tell you everything, that you do not want to hear, does that make them a bastard?
I don't know.
Should a long term friend be honest from the start?
Should both friends tell you from the start?
Should I blog about it to front them out?
Should I just wash my hands of 2 liars?
Should I care either way?

Am I the evil bastard?
If rumours are true (please let it not be) simon cowell's attempting to release the REM classic Everybody hurts as a charity single for the victims of Haiti earthquake. It is rumoured to include such luminaries as cheryl cole,(sorry biffa tweedy, she got done for assault before becoming the new peoples sweetheart in th UK, well accordin to the press)robbie williams, susan boyle, lady gaga, beyonce and leona lewis.
For fuck sake if this is true, I think I may well have to start self harming, the very idea that this shiteous cover(lets be honest, great song murdered by a cowell karaoke backing track)may well give My boys there 1st number 1 single in the uk makes me ill.
Fetch me a noose or a bag load of pills(preferably) I may well film it and leave a note begging it to be made public.
Happy New Year, xxxxx
Merry xmas everyone. Blah blah blah.
Thanx to I & G for a great night.
I now really hate everyone.
R xx
What is wrong with England?
They cannot cope with snow and ice? WHY?
Useless cunt's, If my pal G cannot get here after his train being delayed by 59 minutes from the start of his journey, the carriage being filthy, (I made him take pics of it)so they will be up later(if he gets here?).
If this ends up fucking my christmas, I am going to have such a massive rant.
Also if First Great Western trains don't get him here tonight/early morning now, I will go fucking apeshit.
some people think I'm bonkers, I just think I'm bonkers.
If only I was freeeeee.....


Nutter. YES.
Fucking hell, a sportsman comes out when his career is over.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/welsh/8421956.stm
You might need to copy and paste the address.
OK he aint that hot, he's a hard bastard, but good on him.
Why don't the teens and 20 somethings do it?
debate.
Well done all the same, shame it took so long.
Well the snow was a non starter here in London. In my part anyway.
Yes it's chilly, but no biggie.
To wake up this morning and not find 8 inches outside my window.....
Disapointment.
Totally dissapointed with the snowfall,
it's too wet to start landing.
I expect to wake up to 2 inches of snow.
If I don't, then real anger about this cold snap?
(wer'e supposed to have).
Will build, rage, but then I cannot be bothered about the weather,
unless it's hot, then I just love, love, love.
FFS I can still hear the trains, ooooohhhh.
So the trains are running.
that's hardly winter?
Snow harder please?
YES, just what I need, Psycho 20something bitches getting all angry cos I refuse them friendship, I am gonna remove myself from facebook AGAIN, cos I get abused by alleged friends, who then allow alleged friends to take the Huff when I refuse them as friends.
Cancelled Bebo too.
Blog only from now.
Merry wotever.
I have a rotten cold and what feels like a chest infection,
anyhoo it has kept me awake to this time gone 4am london uk.
On a brighter note I am either really ill or doped up on cough meds that I have written my first letter to a 2 time oscar winner, I won't use the C word as she is above and beyond the cunt/celebrity term.

Woohoo....
here is a v bad photo of my birthday/xmas present.
My very own xbox360 Elite with 2 controllers.
It weighs a ton, but sat upright next to my tv in London, it will be worth leaving my wii here in Devon. Thank you so much G's dad, for making this gift possible.
Thank you G for enabling this, I am sure you & D will enjoy the WII, how could you not? Its all set up for freeness.
I just noticed the pic looks like an open mouth, not my intention.
Yes, had a few hours sleep, a huge relief.
But best news is I am going out later today to select my birthday/xmas present, not sure what to choose yet, it will be a gadget of some sort, favouring an Xbox 360 elite, gonna spend at least an hour browsing before I decide. That kinda sounds like I've already made up my mind, but who knows, I might see somit else.
I have been awake for the best part of 5 days. been solidly awake for 57 hours now.
it's great being out of London, but not so great that I am missing so much sleep that I am hearing and seeing things.
I need to address my panic mode, cos it's me now in extremis.
I don't wanna tell anyone close to me, Please body & mind shut down sometime tuesday, it's already 08:35.
Enough already.
Kinda ooooh, am I weird, or is it everyone else?
OK I know it's me.
Well it is me, but it aint just me.
Bad times, AAArrrgggghhhhhh.
Should all of that been in capitals?
xxx
In the next 3 days.
I gotta have vitamin injections, swine flu jabs, and a few other jabs.
I gonna have more pricks this week, since my whoreing days.
LOVELY, XXX
Vitamin injection in the morning, I am hoping they will give me my swine flu vac at same time, and having had a cold for last 7 days it better help. For once I won't mind the pain.

I have set a date to stop smoking, and bargaining for a date to stop drinking, woohoo.
Here's hoping.
Massive thanks to Marc for the visit et al,
He took me to see a band called "Spiritualized" at the royal festival hall in London.
Having only listened to the album they were performing once, I wasn't quite sure how much I would enjoy it, but fuck me, it was brilliant, everything from the horn section, the string section, the choir, percussionist, drummer, bass player, the other two guitarists and the man himself Jason Pierce were simply amazing.
If you don't believe me head over to "here" and download monday nghts performance, you wont be dissapointed, and if you are well thats just tough shit, I dont care what you think, I loved it.
On a side note, all you fuckwits that dont bother from year to year!
You don't deserve loyality.


* pics taken from bbc news website.
What are the bbc doing with these images?
Are they trying to suggest UK chancellor is a camp old queen?
Who you lokking at bitch.
Are they trying to suggest iranian president is a looney?
All these bastards are crazy for thinking I am the crazy one.
I just dont know.
Star Trek was meh.
However, Kit-Kat chunky caramel is well nice,
OK it may take me 3 days to eat a whole bar,
I only bought one cos I heard some street whore talking about it today.
Finally got round to watching the re-invention of star trek.
Surely after 40 minutes of any film I should care enough to watch the rest of it?
Yet here I am writing this. It better get good within 20 minutes or I .....
You can all GTF.
Having a few sleep issues,
it's rained every day here,
still, the eye candy in the local shop is hot.
it's as close to flirting as I will get here.
"The New Beatles"(as named by the band),
British "indie rock" band Oasis have split, LOL.
i.e. ring a ring an ego,
it clashes with another,
we all fall down,
it dosen't rhyme, or fit, but then neither did any of the pissy tunes Oasis ever did.
Thank you so much David and stephen for the lift north.
Finally settling into being in Scotland for a while,
I have to say loving spending time wiv my lil cuz,
looking forward to seeing the rest of the family, on the island???
Thanks Mrs Rice, love you. xx
"Family Guy", "Family Gay", Seth MacFarlane finally comes out?
Ok, so he concedes Stewie might be.
Telling Playboy, Stewie was bullied in school, etc,etc, you got your paycheck already. ooh abortion episode scandall.
Your gay, get over it.
I am in love with Super Mario Galaxy.

Sleep problems.
Human contact.
Being nice.
Being polite.
Disgusts me.
Cost = my very being.


Switching off all phones.
Refusing all internet contact.
Denying myself any connection with people..... Priceless.
I hate the fact that I was in no position to be at my one of my dearest friends party.
I hate the fact that I was in no position to protect my friend when he was charged.
I hate the fact that I dislike everyone right now.
I love the fact that everyone makes me vomit.
I love and hate all of you.
G, I never been to canning town, charlton or g.a.y. to link up with the PTF.

Nuff said. Idiot. You massive hulking Twat.

Camera phone pic.

Why is this in a playground?

Still coughing and sneezing everywhere, as if facebook didn't get on my nerves enough, I now have a bebo page, just to keep intouch with those that refuse to use facebook.
I am now drawing the final line. enough is enough, if one more person tries to get me to use twitter or follow them on it, I will hunt them down and issue their final tweet.
P.S. loving the learning spanish software, it's hard work, but keeps me amused when I can't sleep. Just a shame it wont fit on my fone.
still got a cold, installing Spanish speaking software on my pc, so I can transfer it onto my fone so I can learn while in bed. Ola Bitches.
Growling over my first cold in over 5 years, nice dinner tho.
Del stay safe, LK well funny to be watching the snooker and seeing u pop up.
grrrr.
I will get u all back. xxx

Pay attention to the warning sign.




Ooops.

Worst Beatles song tribute ever.
I am off to visit an old friend for a day or 2, but I am still trying to download some REM demos from 12 years ago, but this uploader lives in the middle of nowhere in brazil, so a 250 meg file has taken 14 hours and I still have 30 meg to go.
If anyone reading this has REM rare stuff PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE upload to anything other than pando so I can enjoy.
Right, because of the ongoing argument "between the UK and the (youtube,google) bastards, I am not allowed to show the official video. I am a paid up member of the fanclub, but youtube still says I cannot show this video.
So here is an accoustic joy.
She's A Witch.

Kinda funyy funky tune, but cannot help but think, I may be subliminally advertising a 2nd rate TV show clip.


Hot air crew, rappers delight.
Rant Rant Rant. Couldn't be arsed to post a pic.
Too busy trying to rant.


A private joke.


Thanks for the phone G x
Great song, inspired video.


I Believe.
Not the worst/best cover I ever heard, but go Hootie & the Blowfish for daring to cover "Losing My Religion" with an half arsed attempt at mandolin.



How hot to see a black guy rocking a cowboy hat.
Nice try.
certainly better than Death Cab for Cutie(cuyahoga), The Fray(The Great Beyond).

Tho thinking of covers,
This is one of my faves.
It reminds me of my mum.
The Tourists - I only wanna be with you.


I might have to do a proper covers post.
The BBC's new Comic Relief celebrity dance thing.
The superb Robert Webb does Flashdance, very funny and kinda sexy and disturbing.

there's also pics of his peen out there if u look.
Whilst watching a prog on BBC4 in th UK about comedy songs,
they did the whole Weird Al Jankovich, Spitting Image etc.
they happened to skirt over this gem, which I had almost forgotten.
I give you the "only gay eskimo"
shame it aint the British TV version.

Enjoy it anyway. X
Thom Yorke stole my hair.

and Jonny greenwood was robbed of an individual grammy.
Then again, HOW THE FUCK DO COLDPLAY WIN ANYTHING?
I broke a tooth today.
No pain so I don't mind waiting for dental appointment.
Tho with my hair at the length it is, I may have to get some crack. Hmm, can't be too difficult living where I do. Luv.
Something to cheer me up.
Anyone that knows me, knows I fucking hate adverts, but this one is very cool.

I used to arrive at this station every morning for work, if I had seen this I would have died.
Insane week, too many people, too many missed phone calls, I wanna break out of my skin like the Hulk.

Happy New Year fucklings. xx.
Congratulations to Sir Chris Hoy(cyclist, and totally hot Scottish totty) and Sir Terry Pratchett(my fave author) on their Knighthoods, damn good job Chris got his or I would have been cursing.

A weekend buzz does not last forever.

Barry Manilow at the O2 arena in London on Saturday night was outstanding.
I cannot fault a 65 year old man, he kept 20 thousand people bouncing off the walls.
Neil Diamond could learn something from him as a performer.
P.S. Stop having shit comedians as an opening act.
Bobby Davro, was younger than some of the shit jokes he told.

here's a lil reminder of Bush and his minions.
And with the 5th of November approaching fast here in the UK, Bush and the Republicans, your day is done, for now at least.


Don't let the door hit your hatefull ass on the way out Bush.
Don't feel sorry for old guy and the MILF(pig in lipstick).
After 8 LOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGGGG years watching America being bastardised by Bush and his cronies, it's a relief to know(hope) that when I wake up in about 8 hours it shall be confirmed.
Apparently, the first vote is in, in a town of 21 voters 70%(you do the maths)went for Obama, and all 21 voters were white.
Whoop whoop.
Well done Spurs for getting of the bottom of the Premiership.
Back from the frozen north, big luv & thanks to the following, T, M, P, C, E, & massive hugs and squeezes to Lil Miss Tara Doggie, for keeping me company almost every night.


Sorry about the old camera phone pic, but I think we all agree, she is gorgeous.
Can you make this illusion work?


??????
Heading out of London? Soon? For a wee while?
B4 starting new therapy.
If I do leave London, I will try to meet old friends in the north.
Can I even communitcate?
Who knows?
I am so scared, freaked....
Self harming again.
my fingers look like aliens.
I hear noises, Bells, Whistles & bones cracking?
Bleeps, howls, and snapping?
is any of it real?
Does it all just confirm my disgust?
I am completely fed up with people, they disgust me. I wish had no need to interact with them on any level. I want to be found dead in 10 years time surrounded by 2 meter piles of old newspapers and boxes of bills, and just maybe a dead pet or 3 and just for good measure bags of all sorts of bodily fluids, maybe clutching my original Elmo covered in saliva and vomit, fingers crossed this hell lasts that long.
