i know, i know...all this needs updating. but for now here's the same old stuff, and some newer stuff as well:
okay. before, i had this kinda nasty message here...not nasty as in "oh that goes in there. then that goes in there. then that goes in there. then that goes in there. & then it's over" (as our pal Jarvis so eloquently puts it...), just nasty as in kinda hostile. you've got to excuse me for that...these things tend to be subject to whatever mood i'm in sometime between 2 and 6am when i decide i've just run out of other ways to procrastinate. here's to hoping i find a point to this page. so far...all it seems to be is a compilation of some of my favorite links. today's favorites at least. but i hope you'll check them out (except the last one. which you really can ignore). i mean, you made it here right? you must have a lot of time on your hands...you know? so you might as well look around. oh yeah! you should be appreciative of me taking down that...annoying animated gif thing there at the top. well, now we've got some cherished artwork by none other than Blur's Graham Coxon, king of the neo-nerds (according to Karen anyway). oh yes, before i forget. below is a (few) word(s) from our sponsor (of sorts), the Spaceman himself:

• THE SUPER FURRY ANIMALS' b-sides album should be out (in the UK) Nov. 16th it's called "outspaced" or something like that. their third album should follow shortly thereafter. in my opinion. but who knows when it really will.

• actually, i haven't been keeping up on the whole Verve front. check out ajay's site 'cos if anyone would know it would be him. i think there's a verve relapse thing happening about now, at least amoung the hardcore verve fan populace. i dunno what to say. go listen to "A Storm in Heaven" or something.
  

• check out Graham (from Blur, 'member?) Coxon's video for "I Wish" if you've got real audio: 28, 56
  

• French band Air are on their European tour by now (having completed the US stretch, which was amazing. according to one, being me, but i only saw one show, didn't i? i also heard rumors that Francis Ford Coppolla, KD Lang Beck, and Jean Jacques Perrey were spotted at a few shows, if anyone cares). you can listen to a broadcast of them playing for the radio in LA by clicking here (again, this is if you have real audio).
  

• i hear mogwai will be recording some stuff in the US come november...so here are a few shows they're planning to be at: 11/06 - NYC - Brownies (CMJ)
  11/27- Cambridge, MA- Middle East
  11/28- NYC- Brownie's (21 +)
  11/29- NYC- Brownie's (all ages)
  11/30- Philadelphia, PA- Khbyer Pass
  12/02- Toronto, ONT- Horseshoe Tavern
