Well, it's either that or nothing's been happening lately. A bit of both, perhaps. Good job we have You Tube to pull us out of this mundane misery. I mean, the plumbing in me gaff is in working order, I've got no unruly laptops to vandalise and I'll be doing naff-all until next Tuesday (when I'll be interviewing Captain Black and his dog of a Rickenbacker for a forthcoming Depcast. Nice). So, without further mumbling, I bring you Important Historical Document No 3. Watch these two jazz maestros play sweet music and forget about recent troubles of buying petrol from Tesco's etc, etc... Oh, and in case the embedded stuff fails to play, here's the link.
Today is Captain Chaos' birthday

Romo's internal plumbing problems - makes me sound like the Duchess of Cornwall! You are a cheekster Istster. Lazyitis - good track - there was a thing on Shaun Ryder in the paper last week. Apparently he's off all the gear and completely broke. He got offered a record deal but turned it down as it meant all the money would go to the Inland Revenue. Terrible. He's got a nice new set of big shiny teeth though and I hear that he has reformed (again) Happy Mondays - one of the best bands ever.
Lazyitis...didn't he sing that one with his dad? They had some good songs, "Pills and thrills and bellyaches" was a top album.
Unfortunately I saw them at Glastonbury '90 and they were a big dissapointment live.
I'm sure - wasn't that the beginning of the end? They peaked really fast and declined even faster I seem to recall - must have been something to do with all the crackh, smackh and jellies - not to mention the three bottles of vodka a day each.
There was a great documentary about Shaun Ryder on telly a couple of years back. At one point he was attempting to make a smoothie, because (he claimed) he was on a health kick. Problem is, he stuck about three pints of vodka into the juicer along with the healthier ingredients, and the resulting concoction flowed out over the juicer and flooded his kitchen top. What a man.
RoMo - Hadn't they been going since the early eighties? They've split up and reformed more times than I've had more hot dinners.
Betty - There's nothing wrong with a bit of Mancunian justice.
