    OLO's @ A PIXEL PARTY

    So last wednesday (my birthday) Lionheart, Seaweed, and I got dressed up and went to our friends Special Wednesday's night in town. Lionheart was Donkey Kong, Seaweed was Mario Kart Toad,..My name? well it changed through the night..i was Moon Boon, Captain Custard, and Justin Timberlake in space. Seaweed won 'best dressed' ..i won 'strangest look'. a lot of stupid dancing was had especially when 'easy lover' (see below) was removed from my cape and spun. i don't know what came over me but i went a little mad and flew out the fire exit out onto the streets where i paraded around only stopping when i smashed head on into a massive mirror (which i thought was another room) in a gay club ..it was the nearest place to gatecrash! below you'll see Donkey Kong, Earthworm Jim, Toad, and i getting ready 'art attack' style and at the party..

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEFF



    WHOOOOOOAAAAAAAA MOMMMMMA
    This was a weird night
    Jeff booked out the Louisiana for his birthday.
    Safetyword, Countryside, Los Conios and Manic F all played mini sets upstairs so that Jeff could have a good old dance along. During Los Conios, Jeff joined the band on stage to dance and sing. On their penultimate song he undid his shirt and lowered his trousers to display his sweaty shiny torso and sweaty not shiny boxershorts. The night ended with Manic F - Jeffs own musical project. See the latter part of the video for an idea of what this was like, though you really had to be there.



    Here is a video of safetyword performing their last song. You can just make out that Jeff keeps turning round whenever the door opened to see who was coming in. He said he was worried about not breaking even for the £160 the booking had cost him. Money schmoney oh vey! Sounds a bit weird this one because my wee microphone cant cope with the loud noises.

    ANIMAL COLLECTIVE GIG (London, 26th August)

    Delifinger (who has started his blog again) gives his version of the post-gig memories..

    "While moaning that the tube stations, and all fast food emporiums were closed, James decided to take a nap on the wall of the river thames at 6am. We ended up walking 5 miles from cable street to victoria station after seeing the animal collective, only making our coach by hailing a cab for the last 3/4 of a mile. After a quick snooze on the coach, I awoke to find a pair of leather winkle pickers in my bag. We think that we took them from outside a house that James knocked on at 5 in the morning to ask if there was a party (based on the fact that there were balloons outside). The man that answered very calmly and politely informed James that there wasnt a party. Anyway here is a video of that ever so comfortable nap taking, filmed just before I was sick in the river."

    I've plans for those winkle pickers. here's a sneaky video Delifinger filmed of the fool..



    oh yeah, we had a good laugh in the pub before arriving at the venue. here's Delifinger again..

    "On our trip to the big city at the weekend we went for a drink in a cockney boozer called the George. Some guy came over and put a carpenters record on and asked me keep an eye on it. Anyway.....1 thing let to another and I ended up playing a 2 hour long set using the piles of dusty scratched charity shop vinyl they had kept behind the decks. In between pints of magners I 'pleasured' the pubgoers with such camp classics as tainted love, get into the groove, rocket man and even lets go fly a kite from the mary poppins soundtrack. After realising that the guy who had asked me to mind the decks has fled into the night about an hour earlier, and feeling slightly taken advantage of, we headed for the door after blasting out a song from the sound of music soundtrack as our goodbye."

    here's the wonderful playlist in full (as much as he can remember)..

    elton john - rocket man
    burt bacharach - The look of love
    dione warick - walk on by
    kate bush - wuthering hieghts
    madonna - into the groove
    soft cell - tainted love
    blondie - rapture
    paul simon - grace land
    suzi souix and the banshees - hong kong garden
    mary poppins - lets go fly a kite
    rogers and hammerstein - the sound of music
    michael jackson - dirty diana
    michael jackson - gotta be startin something
    the shadows - heart of glass
    donna summer - i feel love
    david bowie - the man who sold the world
    dirty dancing soundtrack - ive had the time of my life
    eurythmics - sweet dreams
    barry white - let the music play
    lionel richie - all night long
