It is a terrible habit, but I always seem to start these posts with an apology. That's what years of fanzine editing does to you!
You might think that because the World Cup is nearing an end I would be able to get on with this site (I have almost given up on Big Brother thankfully), but oh no, I have to prepare for my move to Belfast in the next few weeks.
Despite shirking my responsibilities here, we spent last weekend in Paris (pour l'anniversaire!) doing all sorts of touristy things as we'd never been there before. We returned knackered and I had to go into work and then go to see Sonic Youth. Thank God I had a seat! I'm also glad I'd heard 'Murray Street' before I went as they played ALL of it, in fact the set was almost entirely different from the one I saw in the same venue two years ago. Nothing from 'Goo' or 'NYC Ghosts and Flowers' (odd considering I thought it was part 1 of a trilogy of which 'Murray St' is part 2) but lots of old stuff too - 'Eric's Trip', 'White Kross', 'Shadow of a Doubt', 'Candle', 'Skip Tracer', 'Drunken Butterfly'.
