Ah yes, that is one of the first ones I watched! ...I didn't realize this band didn't have much material yet. They might be in that difficult place of: it's time for a new recording, and we have enough songs, and we think they're good enough. But the other releases haven't made any money, so we can't really afford the production costs, and gigging isn't even paying for itself, and the pressure is on at work, and finding some representation is taking forever, and my father keeps bugging me, and we can't really think of anything until we find out if we can go to Japan in May, etc. etc. etc. Say a prayer, buy an album, send them an encouraging message! I have and they are really nice (FB), I asked the guy how he wound up playing in a band with 2 girls, he answered "It's complicated"... is that a good, or a bad thing?

I mean, it's a job so, how the work relationships are going is Thing One. Somewhere, someone's listening to Fleetwood Mac and reflecting on the mistakes you can make. Since there's no crew, I bet the girls think it's great! Especially Misook. You go first with the amplifier, Youn-bo I'll be right behind you.

(And take video ) Funny thing is, I've just renewed my passport & I don't think it will be back in time, that and poverty will prevent me from going.....but.....I'm so tempted, perhaps I could stow away on the Euro Star?? Perhaps you could pursuade them on FaceBook to visit London, preferably when I'm not working.

(And take video ) For a few brief moments I slipped into fantasy land, sashayed down the street in my platform shoes and started investigating timetables. Then reality slapped me 'round the back of the head and said, "Get real baka guy! You're not up to all that travelling. Remember your trip to Birmingham? You nearly didn't make it back to the hotel - despite playing Map Master twice." Its interesting to see that it would take me more than three times longer to get to London than it would take to get me from London to Paris by train. But I guess the Paris train doesn't make so many stops.

Yes, I am wearing my platform boots, but I've been printing out maps and timetables for my upcoming Shonen Knife gigs and then sashaying to the printer. Just in case you didn't believe me about the boots, I just took a pic of them for you... I'm wearing platform boots

I thought they might be to give a really comfy walk Yes, they are very comfy to walk in. Not so comfortable to be wearing when sat on a train for a couple of hours and there's not enough leg room. Your knees end up being raised to uncomfortable heights and get pressed against the back of the seat in front of you. Those boots turn all seats into low children’s seats. There is one added medical bonus that can be said those boots. How can I put it? According to doctors, having your knees higher than your posterior whilst sat on the toilet is a better position to help with emptying your bowels more easily and more efficiently.
