Major shivers all over.
You have great taste in music by the way
Hope your ok. What's been happening in your world recently? How is wonderful, wonderful Canada? You certainly are in wonderland...
Take care x
Well I caught part of the video for 'Love is Noise' and erm...yeah...hopefully they'll be better coming of the new album. It's kind of worrying though because normally they launch with hwat they think is the strongest single. Oh dear... But yes, they do seem like a band worthy of a head lining slot, which is weird because I've never thought of them like that. Actually I've barely though of them up until recently.
Hahaha...yes, they're damned if they do, and damned if they don't. I think most bands except Radohead suffer from being both expected to grow, yet bottled into a particular sound at the same time. Then again that's how bands grow to dominate certain genres. Except pop...pop's just lite.
Have you acquired yourself a sun tan yet? hehe. It's just started getting hot over here - without the rain! Yippee!!! Up until now it's been somewhat of a wash out of a summer, but over the last few days it's been gloriously sunny. A bit too hot for my liking though, am more a warm spring day man myself. Not too hot, not too cool...just right. Though it's brought out all the wildlife and it's made Spalding very, very picturesque. Hmmm, erm I'm spending my days at the moment chasing after work and chatting away online. Not much difference there, though I have to say it's a more laid back lifestyle outside of London. Erm...oh and my little vegetable garden is doing Ok. Except from something's taken a liking to my sweet chilli plants.
Yes, we need to stop doing such long responses. ;o)

All my love,
Jack
I'll be round your way next week. I'm in Montreal for a few days. I hope your having good weather!
Take care
