ah! sorry, I'm horrible at social networking/myspace. Facebook on the other hand...
Well, I was looking for songs off the new Dirty Projectors via blogs and there was this kid from London (maybe?) who is actually moving to my neck of the woods (or world, rather) and I listened to a couple of songs and then yeah. It was great. :)
the speakers on my computer were turned down very low and gradually i became aware of this quiet harmonic drone in the periphery. i thought it was bbc southern counties playing some mark mcguire but no - it was your very fine music.
blog is taking longer than expected! Basically I got there and the dc input on my fx pedal finally went dead. I decided to do a early Sonic Youth style improv set with a clean guitar, a radio, and a two piece drum kit. The first three minutes were quite nice but then it just went a bit insane as I tried getting stranger sounds out of my (horribly out of tune) guitar. I ended up falling on top of the drum kit at one stage. Now picture all that in a Swindon toilet venue occupied by a bunch of 16 year old emos, their parents, and some old men out for a drink. Although I got an applause and I don't think everyone was being sarcastic.
