Great, I'm going to have to get hold of some kind of mobile music playing device so that I can listen to it on the train up to Glasgow. Does such a thing exist any more? I've not seen a Sony Walkman in the shops for years ...

I still use my CD Walkman on the bus everyday, to the amusment of all the people with IPODs and MP3 players.

Just found out that God Fires Man (whoever they are) have an album called A Billion Balconies Facing the Sun. How disappointing! That's such a great title I don't really want to share it.

Cocaine Nights - the bit where the ex-pats have the balconies that face inward, away from the world.

I know, I'm still annoyed that it's already been used by someone else :)

Yeah, does anyone know why it's been put back a week?

tzb 10-06-2010 17:06

Anyone remember James talking about Jackie Collins Existential Question Time?
He mentioned: 'Answers on a postcard'. Also as an intro for the song on some dates in the US-tour.

I felt like that when I found out the phrases 'living well is the best revenge' wasn't made up by REM.

It's a pretty common way of ending a rhetorical question, unsure it'd have anything to do with this. Maybe though.
