THE DEVIL AND DANIEL JOHNSTON



I'm desperate to see this film, it's not on anywhere though. turns out Bristol prefers Tom Cruise to Daniel Johnston..strange i know.

I BELIEVE I CAN FLY



I'm having loads of fun on my new trampoline..just like i did back in 1983 (see above), hey! look at me go! mark holding on to mummy..pah! my legs were (are still) soo fat, i had (have) dimples in them. anyway, back to 2006..been doing 15 minutes each day and although the first few minutes are kinda boring, after that you get in a sort of trance and time fly's. i just hope (with my window open) no one can see me from outside..yesterday i had the radio on while bouncing and Pink came on.

WILL TONY EVER CUT THAT HAIR?

Woah!..W..W..Will Oldham on hollyoaks!!?? what the 'ells goin' on!?? they played 'i see a darkness' right at the end as Tony's baby went to hospital to be written off the show (shame as that baby was one of the best actors..just behind little Tom).

tomorrow.. Animal Collective on cd:uk!

ps- you like that clever title?

KATE BUSH DREAMS

An email from a Olo fan (ha! fan?)..

"How are you doing? How's the trampoline?!
I had the strangest dream last night that olo was taking place on a trolley
on a hill. You and matt were there with all this old fashioned recording
equipment. Is this the first olo dream?
rx"

thats it! we'll do it! guys, get your wax cylinder's ready..we're going to asda (..and then running up that hill!). when they were up they were up, and when they were down they were down, and when they were..bored...

BOUNCE

Bought a trampoline on saturday!

BACK IN YA FACE

Ahhh yes! justice! great great day in court on thursday..for over 5 hours i watched a dumb bouncer get ripped apart by a long list of witnesses who all happily stuck the boot in and told the jury what kind of thug he really was. it was brilliant! he was this massive meat head (unusual for a bouncer i know) who looked like he had kicked a fair few punters in. having been on the end of more than a few of their right hooks, headlocks, and sharp witty put-downs..i'm delighted that i witnessed this wonderful moment.

HAIRY FIBS

Had me barnet seen to the other day. i could'nt stop lying to the barber..and i really don't know why i did it? trouble is that i've gotta remember them all so i don't trip up the next time i go. they were'nt even exciting lies like james bond would tell, they were as dull as my haircut.

YOU & THE ATOM BOMB (Live)

Went and saw You & The Atom Bomb again last night. by george! they are good! Jeff was on fine form. i NEED to film him so the whole world can catch on to his moves..my favourite is the 'hot potato' *shakes hands*. below is some drawings from last night..don't know who did them all? i did the portrait of M.Lacey..which is spot on.

TRICKY PROBLEMS












BAD MYSPACE JOKE

A FAN WRITES

God knows why?..but i got a message from someone recently saying he really loved the blog *cough* and could i post more doodles up. ok pal, you asked for it. here's some nonsense from this morning..












THE START IS THE END MORE OR LESS

The new King Biscuit Time album cover (i love it!)..


Steve Mason has a habit of dropping unexpected bombs. the latest one, a few days after the release of his latest single and with only a couple of week's til the 1st King Biscuit Time album is due out..he leaves this message on myspace..

"Peace to you all. I'm out of here. It's been amazing but I've had enough. The mountain beat me and sadly you too. That don't mean you should give up. It just wasn't me. Over and out, Steve."

For me this is real sad news..although i have a good feeling he'll be back with a new plan of attack soon, here's hoping.
