If you care about music, buy it from fine independent stores like Banquet Records and the Rock Box. Tell Jon I said "hi" in both instances.

Books
Current read: Screen Burn by Charlie Brooker
I have rediscovered how fun reading can be. I have recently enjoyed "Join Me", "The Yes Man" and "Danny Wallace and the Centre of The Universe" which are all by Danny Wallace. A quite intreaguing read – I highly recommend them. "Are You Dave Gorman?" was also rad.
Derren Brown's book was very interesting. I also love the Red Dwarf series (and all Rob Grant's books), Post No Bills by Shepard Fairey and anything else in the graphic design / artfag field.
About me: I never look at MySpace these days. Since I last looked I started a blog about puns, I got made redundant and put Robbie back on my heroes list.
Find me on Facebook, yeah?
Boasting:
I am responsible for this..
..and that makes me happier than you'll ever know.
Lykes / Dyslykes
Tremendous! - LUKER / New Slang / Spurs sort of being on form / The Punning Man Horrendous! - Redundancy
Thanks! Yeah, that is pretty weird. My guess is that 81 percent of the people voting for us have spelled it that way though, as opposed to it being some sort of overall vote percentage. :(
Right, two different people asked if it would be possible to sort out a Guildford gig on this night for two different bands on tour. One was for the Ghost Mice for the USA, the other was Sotatila and Ruidosa Inmundicia from Austria, Chile and Finland. Shitty Limits (from Reading) are also playing.
So the score is there are four bands, any one of which could headline. Easiest way to resolve this, running order will be decided on the night - probably by international Rock, Paper, Scissors or something equally daft.
It'll be £5 in, anyone who wants to bring a distro or similar down is welcome, and there's a zine library that's up to about 300 zines now I think. It's all ages too. Should really count them at some point. Any other questions, give me a mail.
In ALPHABETICAL ORDER (not running order - that's being decided on the night):
Ghost Mice (http://www. myspace. com/ghostmice) - from Indiana in the USA, an acoustic bunch who've played Guildford a couple of times before. Really nice people too.
Ruidosa Inmundicia (http://www. last. fm/music/Ruidosa+Inmundicia) - from Austria AND Chile, fast as all hell thrash. As if you needed an excuse to dance fast. On tour with Sotatila.
The Shitty Limits (http://www. myspace. com/theshittylimits) - Shitty Fucking Limits Bust. You really should know about these by now, but think about good sleazy overexcited power pop and you're pretty close. First gig back from their Euro tour, and believe there are not one, but TWO new 7 inches.
Sotatila (http://www. sotatila. cjb. net/) - hailing from Austria and Finland, this lot play out and out hardcore punk with a healthy dose of politics included. On tour with Ruidosa Inmundicia.
Thursday 18th September - 7:30pm. Guildford Youth Centre, Leapale Lane, Guildford, GU1 4LY. £5 in - all ages.
Sean Leahy's Daily Pantone. you should start a graphic design magazine called that. or perhaps even a lunchtime graphics talkshow. it could replace loose women x
Thanks for seeing me the other day. Next time, partying will be afoot, I guarantee it Watch all of these consecutively I told you to do this ages ago, but this is a nother kindly reminder
