Tour Rambles

posted April 29th,2010 by Ellen

Greetings, I do wonder what my life would have been like if I had been stuck in Cardiff right now instead of looking at a man unloading a Miller Lite van in Madison, Wisconsin. I would go with “less eventful.” As you can tell we have made it here safe and sound and undead from [...]

Hello, so this is what happened with the  whole Planes vs Volcanos vs Los Campesinos! adventure… Although we had to cancel some shows which sucked a lot, we have made it over in the end (fingers crossed…I posted this before we boarded the plane) [vimeo http://www.vimeo.com/11149892 w=400&h=225] see it bigger here It is a shame [...]

Volcano News Update

Dear USA, Due to the volcanic situation in Iceland we are grounded in Heathrow with fingers crossed to fly tomorrow but here is a hastily thrown together visual update (better then CNN, Sky News or anything Fox will tell you) [vimeo http://www.vimeo.com/10961664 w=400&h=225] On the upside the sunset will look lovely tonight so apparently every volcanic [...]

Like a crazy Miss Haversham I sit on Oscar day/night dressed up and rocking backwards and forwards waiting for the last minute invitation to slip through the post so I finally have a reason for inventing teleportation. As you can see I am prepared for said event to take place. However it is looking more [...]

Food Reviews: UK 2010 – Volume One

posted February 10th,2010 by Robert

So i’ve been expanding my vocabulary over the past few months.  I’ve been avidly reading Nigel Slater’s Food Column in the Sunday Observer to see what sexy and salivating words he uses.  For anyone who doesn’t know who he is, he is the greatest food writer ever. So if you want to suggest somewhere; not [...]
