Craig’s tells us he could do with a review from
us even if it’s a list of reasons why he should
throw his recording equipment on a fire, along
with a leftover gas canister and then toss
himself in. But, then why should we be denied
that pleasure? Okay, if Craig wants a list of
reasons, then quoting Babyshambles as your
chief inspiration is probably enough in itself
to secure a fiery fate. But then there’s the
moaning and strumming and self-pity to
consider too. Craig ain’t a happy bunny –
something to do with girls not loving him
enough – so he’s set off on a journey into
alcohol-induced self-destruction, which is
neither as clever nor romantic as
impressionable indie kids might believe and
will only result in liver damage and facial
puffiness, and is all a bit selfish when you
consider the effect it’ll have on those around
you who, despite your self-pitying world
outlook, do actually care. (Hey, stop smirking,
we’re trying to cheer Craig up, maybe stop
him jumping off that window ledge or sending
late night emails when he’s too pissed to know
better). Where were we? Ah yes, it’s not all
bad - ‘Taxis’ in particular has hints of a decent
tune but Craig falls into the common trap of
strumming too hard and getting a bit shouty
when he gets emotional. The cover of Brand
New’s ‘Degausser’ is okay – and definitely the
best tune here – stripping the original back to
a simple acoustic ballad that maybe needs to
get a decent meal inside it. Beyond that, it’s
all navel-gazing, self-pity and too much cheap
vodka. Come on girls, this man needs your
love. Bring a bottle. Either you or he is going
to need it.

I guess it *could* mean those things, but for me it means a week at my aunt's house in the country doing nothing (hopefully)! I think I'm going a bit crazy here myself and looking forward to my break. After that I'm going to Disney World and then the following Thursday I'm off to Oxford! I'm gonna be so out of it, but I don't care!! Bring on the 4th of April!
Things are good I guess. Had a few fun days, but work is piling up fast! Luckily it's Spring Break in a week, but it only lasts a week, which sucks. Home soon! You ready!?
