I Spy

Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name
Sorry I haven't visited for a very very long time, I've been busy drawing parrots and seeing Pete Doherty and resiting Maths resits and covering my walls with pictures of Jarvis Cocker and french perfume adverts. As you can see, the collage is all pretty much done! ...so I sat on a rusty step ladder and posed


 


Now I just need to edit a video of me being a devil for Robbie Williams' Let Me Entertain You then I promise to write more blogs because a lot of exciting things have happened regarding eggs, Twitter, Iggy Pop and a Double Decker Bus. I should explain that Robbie didn't hire me to wear devil horns and a paper pitchfork in a professional remake or anything, it was just a media task. Anyway, I'll hope to be back soon with more ridiculousness, I'm just not sure when.

Pete, his pirates and a mythical boy with thin legs

Tuesday night was excellent.
I saw Pete and The Pirates with Hannah and they were wonderful.



They played the perfect setlist (which I now own) and it not only included Cold Black Kitty but also MR. UNDERSTANDING! and a bunch of infectious and instantly loveable little songs. They were all lovely and adorable and right there infront of me with great dance moves and nice shirts and red wine and £ coins and singing about washing powder and dreams.



And then everything got even more exciting and I discovered something amazing:
MY TRENCH COAT BOY HAS A BAND (I'm really not positive it was him but let's just say it was) Basically. I saw a young male with dark brown hair dressed in black pixie boots, black skinny jeans and a navy floral shirt. He had thin legs. He was the front man of a very impressive and quite heavy band whose music resembled that of the Arctic Monkey's new releases. He had a hypnotic yet approachable stage presence and at certain periods in the performance he made an upright jabbing motion with the guitar and simultaniously, is left leg. This was a powerful movement. Not one that I shall soon forget. This person, I am roughly 70 percent sure, was my trench coat boy.

If you are unaware of whom I am discussing then the, er 'trench coat boy', is a sort of myth that I encountered months ago and blogged about who was, unsurprisingly, wearing a trench coat. I don't want to say I became obsessed with him because that's really quite bad and it didn't get that ridiculous, I'll just say I was 'enthusiastic' at the chance of walking past him again. Anyway, after a sighting in Co-op months went by I kind of forgot about it and then bam! he's in a band supporting Pete and The Pirates. If not him (which I don't really think it actually was) then he has quite a believable look-a-like and a very good, sharp voice.

Red Hot Chili Peppers

My main memories from early 2000/ middle school are that I was weird, I wore Campervan t-shirts and I believed in aliens. Luckily I also loved Red Hot Chili Peppers, which was a lot more acceptable. 
They were pretty much all I listened to for about a year and a half so when I heard Zephyr Song song today it just made me feel all happy and warm and nostalgic.
'By The Way' is one of those albums that makes me smile and reminisce.
