go Powder Blue, wax. always Powder Blue. honestly, i've never listened to the YFF, so i'll have to do that soon. some time ago we discussed the film "Local Hero", which had Mark Knopfler do the soundtrack. well, he did it for the new film "wag the dog" (decent film, though DeNiro and Hoffman have too much fun onscreen together). not bad work, but not his best. very lowkey, sitting far behind the film. perhaps this info is useful to MK/Dire Straits fans here, perhaps not.

The first time I saw Robyn, the Fellows opened. I didn't really like them...they seemed like "Alterna-Frat" rockers....But I now admire them and love "Taco Wagon." They did "Give it to the Softboys" that first time....The Fellows are owed a nod of recognition from the Smashing Pumpkin school of guitar sounds...that formerly considered "bad" sound of cheap amp distortion now deemed "great."

The Young Fresh Fellows do a fabulous cover of I Wanna Destroy You. They are huge Soft Boys fans. Robyn is certainly a great deal more mellow these days. I heard an interview with him from just three or four years ago, and the difference is astounding. I think being a solo artist was the cup of tea he'd been waiting for all this time...

Some of Hitchc--k's songs are not as surreal as they might at first seem. He's like a metaphysical poet, taking a "conceit" and working with it, like Donne or Crashaw or one of those cats. Once the idea is more or less deciphered, the "story" of the song is sometimes pretty mundane. Heliotrope, I think, is like that....

Did anyone see McCallum last night. It's about a police pathologist and they're looking for a murderer who takes out his victims' innards. Anyway, there's a bloke in what looks like a cell and he' s on a treadmill running. Then he stops, drinks some green liquid and puts a pair of rollerblades over his shoulder. Then, he knocks on the door of his 'cell' as if he is going to be let out. But no-one answers, so he carries on banging on the door until he realises that no-one is going to let him out. Then, he takes apart the treadmill, and uses a piece of metal from it to break away some of the bricks in the wall. That done, he squeezes out through the hole, and struggles slowly along a arched corridor (which looks like part of a sewer) with spooky drip noises and dramatic music. Then, a man (the murderer) approaches. He is dressed like a ninja turtle, but in black instead of green (including the turtle shell). He is on a squeaking trolley and pulls himself along the corridor after the struggling man. He goes faster and faster on his squeaking trolley until he catches up with the man, jumps off the trolley, and breaks his neck. So did anyone see it then?
