These days if you say anything bad about those Canadians you have a fundamentalist group of cynics, who still cry over the end of the Bush era, attack you in Berlin. Not worth it.

So instead of being negative, let’s worship the kid in the video above. For us he represents dedication mixed with passion. The two things which are missing in that Peaches album.

Almost at the same time someone in marketing contacted us if we run ads on our blog. Please keep your money, we still print the ad….in a Pirate Bay manner (is this copyright violation then? good question).

We make money from selling records and partying….should it stay like this? well, yes, we think so…

hey Robbie….come in….you know it sounds so good….you know what I mean? it’s out there , it’s in here…you know…it’s out there, it’s in here…..it’s oouuutttt theeerrreee (slow voice) , it’s iiinnnnn heeerrrreee…..here’s no good anymore….listen to your friend, Terry…here is no good anymore…. you want to rob me? is that what you want to do? then take the money, it’s in the fridge…take it all….Robbie:”no no man…we just want what we’re owed..really…” “Just take it….take it all …here is no good no more – listen to your friend Terry”

these guys aren’t really the new Oasis are they……

hot question of the day: should My Bloody Valentine reform ? Is Manchester Rave back? Do UK bands do anything these days to get signed? Can myspace bots turn you into a rock god?

take two minutes to think about it, but it takes two seconds to make a decision….

(und wenn unsere Intro Jungs wiedermal in einem Jahr dr?ber schreiben, ist es wiedermal zu sp?t…)
