Weird. Going to be there for uni, and was just looking around Bloomsbury at the accommodation the day before yesterday - passed ULU.

Definitely going to make use of all the ATP London shows while I'm there.

Seeing Portishead tonight- can't wait! Should be top having seen the reviews of the gig last week.

Saw Portishead a couple of weeks ago in Brixton- amazing gig. Beth's so wee!

Saw Blonde Redhead the week after and then something a bit different last night- saw John Cooper Clarke in Islington, with Charlie Chuck doing a turn as well. ****ing hell- JCC looks like Joey Ramone's anorexic brother and Charlie Chuck is just off his tits. All the woof baa, cakey pig, donkey business. Nutter. I was genuinely concerned for my safety at the beginning when he smashed his drum kit up.

Saw Deus in Milan on Thursday and it was ace. We even got to hang out and have a beer with them afterwards- really nice blokes.

Saw Mark Ronson at Nottingham Rock City Bank holiday monday just gone.

Apart from a mic issue for one of the singers, it sounded amazing in a smaller venue crowd really into it.

loved it

Indeed they did- it was a good mix of old and new stuff. And of course, they finished with Suds and Soda, and everyone went mental.

Be interesting to see how fat Raekwon is these days. Last time I saw him in the flesh he made me look normal size.

Went to see Crystal Castles at Man. academy2 on monday night - it was awesome, very much like going to a gig in the Perfect Dark 64/Bladerunner universe.

Saul Williams this coming monday too! I hope the weather is nice for it then we can chill out in the university park first perving over emo uni birds.

I found Only Built 4 Cuban Linx on my HD yesterday randomly and then this burst into a full afternoon of classic hiphop featuring pretty much all of Wutang, Nas, Gravediggaz, Mobb Deep etc.

Following Spags post put Cuban Linx in my car this morning. Still sounds amazing all these years on - astonishing. Tomorrow gonna take it back to the essence with some Slick Rick and maybe a bit of 3rd Bass.
