So What?

One of the important things about maintaining a healthy blog is to feed it with thought at regular intervals: once a day, once a week, once a month - the amount doesn't matter: the consistency does. I was going to make a comparison to good pancake batter here, but I expect that at the mere mention of pancakes most of you would walk away from this nonsense and reach instead for the whisk and syrup. If that is the case, just be aware that you should allow the batter to rest for at least an hour before you start cooking. 

What takes an hour? Lot's of things, you're right. But let me suggest that you spend the hour that splits construction and cooking with a good thing. And a good thing at the moment is the musical output of the fantastic Carousel. "WHO THAT?" you askin'? Get with it, fan, and consult the previous post. Jeez. 

Should you somehow be reading this on the back of making pancake batter and leaving it to rest for an hour, might I direct you up to the link to our Myspace page. There you'll find all sorts of interesting things including old pictures, old videos, bits of toenails and new music. You see, the reward for patience in this instance is twice-apparent: an authentic leathery-textured pancake, and the injection of good sounding vibrations into your recreation-riddled body. 

Reading back, I realise that the majority of the above makes little to no sense (pancakes you what??). In a roundabout, subconscious way, I could be filling the void left by the closure of the NOTW [sorry]. I know better, and I know that I'm simply feeding the blog with the consistent nourishment it requires to grow big and healthy (see first sentence). So I'll aim to do one of these every Sunday, and who knows, one day I might even have something interesting and relevant to say. But for now it's shite all the way and I'm off to watch an Ulsterman scheme his way round Royal St George's.

WHO THAT?

Who that ? indeed.


That unmentionable V word. Harry Potter may be kicking about but we're not talking Voldermort. We're talking vivacious, vociferous and ventilated. Well ventilated, at that. But we're also talking Videosprint, a byword for damn good cancerous hit mongering as much as handling fee is a byword for bullshit. Is this even the correct and proper use for byword? Doubtful. But what about those by-laws? Keep your feet off that seat, young man. Tommy Taylor got a sixty-note-slip for doziness. Faith, though, was restored in humanity by a lift-offering Wirral-based pensioner who saw it no inconvenience to whizz a whippersnapper round to Ness Gardens. 


All this word play weighs heavy on a Sunday afternoon. So, to the point.


VIDEOSPRINT CORPUS MENTUS : CAROUSEL VIVE SIEMPRE


That ought to appease the Vatican branch of the fanclub. Should you be looking for appeasement on a purely sonic level, then left click the glowing things below.

On a selfish level, this is the album I would have listened to this morning if I hadn't woken up in the afternoon. Far out.
