Any doubts I might have about the Carrion Sounds record is hereby dispelled by these here pictures

Let me at them! Now!

Last night I went on Resonance radio with the other half of Morgen & Nite, Mr Nite, who insisted on playing Space is Deep by Hawkwind. I faded it out, saying (in my best Radio 3 voice) ‘that’s enough of that, this is Kosmische Radio, now let’s be civilised and GERMAN,’ before collapsing into giggles. (One should not giggle live on the radio. The only other time I did it was once when I did a show of religious music, and had to introduce a song from an album called ‘I’m a Mormon’. Try saying that and not laughing, unless of course you are a Mormon, in which case it’s still quite funny.)

Anyway.

Throwing the civilised German remit out of the window, we also played: Comets on Fire (cue much headbanging); a lovely new track by the Vanishing Breed called Ich habe keine angst (http://www.vanishingbreed.co.uk/vanishingbreed.html), Moebius/Beerbohm, Susanna and the Magical Orchestra, Embryo, Sunroof!, The White Noise and lots of stuff that didn’t go together in the slightest. We were a bit drunk, and had way too many CDs. Apologies to anyone who listened. But at least we didn’t play Khanate, and HOW GOOD is that Comets on Fire stuff? Pretty damn good. Pretty Damn Good.

Meanwhile, back at my makeshift desk, I’m embarrassing myself sending emails to writers saying, ‘I liked your pitch for X! Please do it!’ only to have them write back saying ‘um, that wasn’t me, Frances…’, and eating leftover sausages dipped in chutney.

Someone get me a secretary. Preferably a cute one.
