the Saul Williams song in the Nike commercial just might be the hottest song I've heard in ages - a sonic buzz saw, very cooldoes anyone have any details on Boston dates for the Radiohead tour? hopefully they'll play suffolk downs again - great location. outdoors, under the stars, planes taking off behind the stage - great show.

Once upon a time, there was this 12 and 10 years old girls (my sister and I), we were watching tv, we used to love the only channel where videos were programmed, and it was not mtv, some local channel named canal 6 well, "Stop Whispering" it was sometimes on air, and iwas always in shock when i was watching the video, it was kind of magical, i still don't know why but seeing Thom singing with all his soul, and that men in the bee catcher that for some reason i always thought it was filmed in space, and there were a collapse and suddenly everything looked destroyed, that was my first close encounter with the band, then a few months, i was in my aunt's house and my cousin who is older than me, he always had this music fanatism and he's dad always bought him the records he wanted! so one day i was just taking a look, and there it was PABLO HONEY (UK edition) i ask him if i could take it home and listening and he say yes! i never returned back! hehe but like 5 years ago he told well is yours! then! i in the same year RADIOHEAD playing in my city?! i couldn't believe it! but, were the concert was only for 18+ older because of the alcohol selling, so i didn't go, i wasn't allowed, my brother and cousin they didn't want to go so i cry like a little baby and since that everytime i have a chance to see you play live, something happens!!! ALWAYS!there was the time, 2 years ago, Gabi from Radiohead Latinoamerica asked me if i wanted to go to the May concerts in Europe but i couldn't i just started a job, my first one, and i couldn't go...but suddenly i was in París yeaah!!! and two weeks after Radiohead will be playing at Rock en Siene!, i was pick to work along Absolut and Lomography to do this lovely thing called ABSOLUT LOMO so i did my best i try to get tickets, and if i could get them i could stay longer and then come back to Mexico, but no! because it was a festival, there were not such a possibility so once again it was SOLD OUT! NO! RADIOHEADlast year i went to London, for the Lomography World Congress, but i decided to stay longer and then what happened OCTOBER 10th,IN RAINBOWS! i was so happy!!! the first thing i thought was THEY FOR SURE ARE GOING TO PLAY!! YEAAAAH! but no!!! until May was the first and official date gosh!!, is so frustrating! and then Radiohead appears in winter December in those lovely webcasts, then free presentantions 93 feet East tragedy as i mentioned earlier...BBC pfffff!!!!so here i am after 14 years a frustrated 26 years old woman, who cannot see live hers favourite band, in the whole world even if when she tries really hard, but hopefully i dont care if i wast thousands of tons of CO2 too see them, they are not coming back to México, well i have to go, August 24 & 25 will beAMEN!:D

The bangers and mash live session video appeared sometime "last night" and I saw it this morning. Bangers and mash was a real favorite of mine and many others from the moment it appeared.... partly due to the name which refers to a hot meal. It's kind of a jazz-music name.... like referring the feel of the song as its title. The recording of bangers n mash published on the In Rainbows disc and record set had a lot of mutations from the original whilst keeping most of the lyrics written for the initial live performances of bangers n mash. The original live versions had overdriven guitars which sounded like the studio and most live Bodysnatchers do today, or how the song "Feeling pulled apart" sounded in a live performance from 2001.Surely can't be beat.But this new one has more detail and more breathing room. It reminds me of Sonic Youth 's "dirty" from 1992. Moreso this live version than the studio one (which has more synth sounds than "dirty"). and thom doing the vocal "moans" during the slow part. A song called "Swimsuit issue" from "dirty" has this kind of feel. The second verse has a completely new guitar part, i just realized. the range of the bangers and mash riff for jonny seems to have been extended fivefold, but i feel that the new ideas are quite fitting; if you're playing one of five parts in a band and you come up with something that seems even better than before then go for it . : ) the cymbals work by phil s. is exemplary --- he makes it sound like there are three drummers instead of two : )

Hello Radiohead loving friend.Correct me if I'm wrong but I have a sneaking suspicion you like music and therefore I've uploaded this CD that was released last year here in Iceland.It's called Við og Við and it's by an Icelandic singer called Ólöf ArnaldsThis is her.Her music is folkish and has an ancient sound to it, but what makes her music really special is her voice.All her songs are in Icelandic.I'm sure you'll think she's wonderful. Her music can't be bought in many places so here's a download link to her album:http://www.mediafire.com/?xkteynx12etAlso, some videos,Klara, off the album:Some more songs from when she played in a record store during the Iceland Airwaves festival:

So I downloaded this about a week ago. I'm a big Man Man fan and I think it's some of the most fun music I've ever heard. Like Tom Waits (one of my all-time favorite artists) on acid or something.Interestingly enough, I believe Man Man is now on ANTI-, which is the label that Tom Waits is on!Anyways... I didn't really like it at first... I listened to a few of the songs a couple of times and then put it down and had a M.I.A. frenzy.But after having watched the pitchfork.tv feature on hanging out with them in their hometown while they record the album... I decided to listen to it some more and I'm liking it more and more each time I listen to it.Way to go Man Man!

Well I managed to book Glasto tickets with Coach. Without realising that the date we're leaving is the same night Radiohead are playing Victoria Park!I am incredably fuckered off. Why book Jay Zeee for Pyramid stage? Radiohead???? Come on.I am trying to figure out a way to bake my cake and eat it. Maybe swap for tickets on the previous night. Hmmm....

I'm a bad loser, I shouldn't play games! I played scrabble this evening and gave up because I got fed up with getting crap letters all the time. When I left I had 4 I's, Z, X and an E! I couldn't do anything with them and decided not to waste my time playing the damn (wow post-traumatic stress) game. I do feel bad though because there were other people playing, then again, I'd feel worse if I was still sat there now! haha!I spent today in the garden as it was a sunny hot day. I dug a vegetable patch, a pretty big one. It might not be cool or whatever but its pretty much free food other than the labour. I was knackered afterwards so I did a bit of sunbathing. You see, being English and having grown up in a country where most days all you get is a grey sky, I like to get a tan when I can. Its one of the advantages of living down in the south of France! Listen to me talk about weather, thats very English too.Tomorrow I've got to start work on a website design so that'll keep me busy.Heres some music by a really cool Japanese Jazz band called Soil & Pimp Sessions. If they ever play near you, go and see them, they are amazing live.

I have decided that the weirdest thing about watching film adaptations of Jane Austen novels is that none of the actresses have any eye makeup.And yes, I've watched two of them in the last week.
