I'm walking a little easier- I still can't bend my leg very well and I need to have a stick for the times it gives out but it's definitely improving.
I'm thinking I might get a new CD as Autumn is here and I need some autumn music to enjoy it with. Currently I'm looking at Fleet Foxes or Elbow or Shearwater or Bon Iver. I'm probably inclining somewhat against the latter as my late summer album was Iron & Wine's Our Endless Numbered Days and they are a little close perhaps. Does anyone with experience of any of those records have an opinion to share?
Let the banks burn. They've been bailed out enough. If the world economy goes with them then so be it. We can make something less fragile and exploitable to replace it with. As
life_of_tom observed; it's what Tyler Durden would want.
We played two open-mic nights with Quesada & Molino in the last week. Wokingham on Friday was poor- the sound set up wasn't ready for three people switching instruments constantly and we couldn't really hear what we were doing. Last night in Ascot was really good- everything was audible and we were able to play off each other much better. I don't think I mentioned it at the time but we changed the recordings on our myspace page a few months ago and they are, although not outstanding, at least more listenable than the original ones.

...and now back to reading Fahrenheit 451...I may start bashing in televisions sets the world over after reading that...
