It's rare, at this age, to fall in love with a new city. But yes, it can
happen.
Berlin, Berlin, what a great beacon of liberty!
And here's a tip for all the dj's out there. At 8 o'clock in the morning,
when people are thinking of leaving your club, play Der Mussolini by DAF. They
will not leave.
Und tanz den Mussolini.
Tanz den Adolf Hitler.
Beweg deinen Hintern.
Und tanz den Jesus Christus.

Harvest

The best thing about holidays is checking out acts that you've never heard of. You can run into some real gems, like these:
An entertaining show with a lot of variety. Fantastic songs. And I'd pay
anything for the phone number of the singer. What a great C&W vamp!
It's amazing how this lady can warm up a half-empty northern club. And
spanking your tour manager on live radio is a great way to get attention.
A very charming duo from Oslo. They make you feel like you're in their living room.

Etat des lieux
7/20/2007 9:36:00 AM
I ran into an interesting piece of information: the French economy has been running on deficit since 1981. This naturally made me think about other things that have gone wrong since 1981, like these:
I miss the time when this question would have sounded strange: Where are
you?
Music that even I could compose cannot be any good.
The number of passenger cars has doubled. Where is everyone driving to?
But luckily there have been improvements as well:
Spend an hour in a bank or a travel agency and you know what you don't
miss.
Consommez sans moderation.

Mobile telephones
Hip Hop
Cars

The internet
High-speed trains
The euro
Can I have some more please.

Chaqu'un son goth
7/18/2007 10:41:00 AM
It's funny how different goth parties are in different parts of the world. In the North they tend to be serious and ritualistic. A lot of sitting and staring. In the South they are very sensual, to put it mildly.
In Brussels it's hard to find the right word. I guess surreal comes closest. A great celebration of diversity and weirdness. My kinda town.

And the living is easy

I guess summer leaves a permanent mark on you when you're in your late teens. That's probably why my favourite summer tracks are all from the early '80s:
Still makes me want to get on a train straight away.
Hot July wind in your face.

The Things That Dreams Are Made Of / The Human League
Tesla Girls / OMD
Someone Somewhere In Summertime / Simple Minds
Summer night magic. She's out there somewhere.

Not just a fair-weather friend

Here's another strange hobby: weatherspotting.
There are some great sites for it but my favourite is still the good old Wunderground (http://www.wunderground.com/).
Check out the Wunder Photos too. They can give a whole new perspective on your hometown.

On druids
7/10/2007 9:39:00 AM
I have a problem.
I cannot stop laughing at the druids that appeared on stage with Spinal Tap in the Live Earth concert. That mini-Stonehedge and all, buhaha...
Can you imagine my agony? It's like a constant bubbling in my stomach that tends to burst out at the worst moment, like in the middle of a serious professional discussion:
- What's so funny about this draft budget?
- Well, the druids.
This is a bit like when I heard that Liam Gallagher thought the Spinal Tap movie was a documentary. It's probably an urban tale but I couldn't stop laughing at it for months.
