Do the monster map

From a series i came across in the Guardian

A map of the USA with each state depicting its own monster

And now for something completely different...

 




I love JAPE, specifically I love Richie Egan.
When I aw his name on the bill for a gig in Limerick I was delighted and off I went.

Imagine my surprise when Jape was the first act up! And yes he was brilliant, 'I was a man' was spine tingling.

Up next was Fionn Regan, just him, his guitar and harmonica. I knew none of his songs but they were all beautiful, but completely different to Jape


And finally 'And so I watch you from afar' who broke me ears (in a really good way) playing instrumental death metal.
Fantastic

Page 99

JUDGING A book by its cover may not be a good idea, but judging it by its 99th page could make perfect sense. According to the novelist Ford Madox Ford, author of the 1915 novel The Good Soldier, “open the book to page ninety-nine and the quality of the whole will be revealed to you”.

So give it a go, follow this link!

Loving The Selby

You know the way I love the internet, well I totally love The Selby (even tho I often think of him of deselby, which gives the whole thing a completely warped meaning) and today was taken aback by these set of images from the art instilation of Jason Lowe and Jonah Freeman.

I'm not goint to pretend to understand it but theres something in the texture and mood that speakes to me about the times we fins ourselves in, and I like that.

Desk Crit song

Its a song from 'Crash Cadet', who just so happens to be an archiecutal graduate. The stand out song has to be 'Desk crit' which you can have a listen to on Soundcloud

I'm all about the desk crit today and now I get to listen to a song which is also all about the desk crit!!
