Ye Olde Laste Shadowe Puppetry Show next. Brett's laughing at me cos i've only managed to write that. I thought it was funny yet historically innacurate in it's comedic implications that centuries ago, the fannies & scripty types used to embellish all words with an "e". Why Scousers & Sheffield-ites have to start fannying around with fancy stringed instruments such as viola, violins and cellos I dunno. These are "rock" cities. And we've all heard 'Ocean Rain' The Coral & Scott Walker loads before. I dunno, I really quite liked the album, it was good hoary retro terrace lovers rock with strings all over the shop but now i've decided the 60s were dog rough and they make me yearn for older times, like the 40s, after the war, when music was rationed and you could only buy tinned Queens of the Stone Age. Tripe-pop that's the future. Lard sandwiches and stringed vests. That's my kinda nostalgia. When people were people and not poseurs. 'My Mistakes Were Made For You' is on Domingo, 2x7"/CDs an' that.
