Does anyone else go a bit nuts in the heat?
I get really short tempered and grumpy...which I hate being, but can't seem to help myself when I'm hot and bothered.
Not good.
Still, I'm seeing Loudon Wainwright III tonight as part of Morrisey's Meltdown Festival at the Royal Festival Hall, which I'm really excited about.
Loudon is a genius!
...I just hope the air...

I've done some diving and lots of snorkeling....when I was growing up we would head south during the fall/winter to Crystal River and snorkel with the Sea Cows (manatee) My Dad was a dive instructor for about 15yrs and now he builds artificial reefs for the state of FL (well not at the moment due to his deployment) but he sits on the state board dealing with laws and such for reef building...I'm tellin ya , it's in my blood...

Loudon Wainwright III plays a cool show... even when he's drunk. Have fun!
UK/USA verbal culture clash!
I've noticed it does happen a lot on here. there are certain things I say that work in the UK that just don't translate for American readers.
It's a weird thing.
What's that George Bernard Shaw quote?
""England and America are two countries divided by a common language".
Interesting.
JUST FOUND THIS ARTICLE ALL ABOUT IT

As an Englishman, who has recently dated an American girl, I'd have to say that it's a long way from being an insurmountable problem. 
Although admittedly, the solution to it from our point of view, as long as we lasted, seemed to be that I would speak in a more American idiom. Sometimes I still ask where the 'bathroom' is, or similar things. Yeah, I take it back. She Americanised me. But not my spelling.

Night y'all.

Withnail and I is fucking incredible...easily one of my favorite movies of all time. I hadn't even heard of it up until a month ago when I noticed the box in the old comedy section of my movie store...saw that it was in the Criterion Collection and decided to give it a try...ended up being fantastic! Thank God for the subtitles on the Criterion Collection's DVD, though...my American ears can't sift through the accents and slang, so understanding the amazing dialogue without subtitles is nearly impossible.
Had a great weekend recording with the boys.
plenty of beer drinking and kicking a ball around between takes.
Shame we lost the England/France game tonight though

We're recording our first single this weekend with the unsung legend that is Chris Tsangarides .
We're going to record four tracks and pick the one that comes out the best.
I am beyond excited.

good for you man. I am set to hit the studio tomorrow, it is just a session thing but it is still THE STUDIO. Sounds stupid but i just love being in that environment, being creative (less so with session stuff obviously) and trying to get great guitars laid down to tape.
My band goes in the studio soon. Probably next month. 3 tracks, demo style.
Hope it goes well for ya. Keep us posted.

best of luck, babe!
I went to my old housemate Mark's wedding last weekend.
It was up in Wales in a gorgeous little old church with the reception in a castle grounds.
Mark and Emma are really good friends of mine from University and I'm so happy for them both.
It was so so nice catching up with people I hadn't seen since my college days a few years...

Well if you aren't going to visit NYC (which you should totally do, by the way) then I'd say head to either Mexico or Australia. And take me with you, dammit!
irina:
Then take me with you! Seriously! Gah!
Regardless, I'm looking forward to meeting you. And of course you love New York; everyone does. That's why we're the capital of the world.
