So, the Barbara Kruger exhibiton at GOMA turns out to be just the one big isntallation piece. It's nice enough, but it ain't gonna change the world. Good shade of green she has going on there, though.
In other news, next weekend is shaping up to be a big one. Jimbob and Yer Maw on Friday night, My neighbour's 30th birthday and the big Smirnoff...

Should be free that day to make it over to Glasgowland...where is the 13th note anyway? My West Coast geog is not so good...

Saturday the 14th is GameFuckingOn but I'll have to feel like a mook and turn down the gig offer, I have family shite to get embroilled in. It's a big shame cause Chevy And The Chasers is the best band name I've ever, ever heard.

The Orkestra Del Sol's version of the Tetris theme has been stuck in my head for precisely 26 hours now.

Hey, just wondering if you were still going to send in some CDs for the SGUK mix CD exchange?
I'm going to put back sorting out the sending back of CDs until later in May.
Go on, you know you want too!

There's a post on the SGScotland group about two American girlies visiting between the 12th and the 19th, you fancying another hookup?
As one of the three who made it last time, I'm promoting you to the joint chair of the newly formed social committee.
Yes, I'm turning SGScotland into a golf club. Wear tweeds at the next hookup.

Oh dear... tonight's going to be insane.
Away to see Franz Ferdinand play in a lift (yes, a lift), Bloc Party in a hotel room, and all manner of other silly trendy bands in all manner of other silly hotel-related places. It's going to be a long, long night in the Merchant City.

Ugh. Visiting friends with small babies when suffering the hangover from hades is a Bad Idea.

Saturday in GlasVegas rocked my socks.
Going back to Edinbugger on a mission to score poon-tang was a disaster (serves me right) and I found myself considering an M8 sprint to The Maggie at about 2300h.

So, tonight it's Le Tigre, ably supported by Gravy Train!!!! at Glasgow's Oran Mor. Wierd venue, to be sure, but hopefully the full-on stage and rigging there will allow Le Tigre to do something special.
Until then, back to work...
