Alas, I didn't have a ticket.
I hiked all the way from Lewisham, South London, because I really,
really needed the exercise.
My bunghole is sweaty and the chaffing is painfully, but I have K
cider and Nurofen.
That is all, return to your workstation citizen.

Dear Iain,
Yes it was a bit of a frenzy. Maybe the young ones were distracted
from their journies to Justin Timerlake that very evening.
The show was a labour of love, as is becoming the norm. Nick we love
you, and we love your songs too. And although we would travle the
earth to see you in show, we really would be pleasured by a
performance that doesn't sound like MW 909 through a retro Roberts
radio. However, please continue to develop your stage personas which
we love too. Any chance of a collision of both, or should we expect an
answer from your rodie, Nick Currie.
With kindest regards and much affection,
Robert

The lack of response to the above shouts out, "Robert, you don't get
it, you don't understand", but let me tell you all this right now. I
won't be marginalised by my lack of education. The NME opted out for
these very reasons when Brit Pop 1st appeared.
My misunderstandings of Momus records are sometimes more interesting
in themselves.
Now let me see, Harry K-Tell may not be about Clint Eatwood after
all.......

well friend, it's medium wave BBC radio 5, mostly covering sport,
finance, news.
Ah, Ea(s)twood. I always thought the line "Method Actor" was Momus'
cynicism, or maybe it is now.
Anyone interested in starting a new race?

I'm tired of compulsive self-pity, Robert.
You know what, you need to speak to granny. Fuck these hipsters, they
just make your already excessive amount of self-importance (obtained
via the self-detachment curtesey of that hertz dude) rise another
notch.
PEACE!

I just want to say the ICA show SUCKED. ICA is not a venue, it's a
bar, a gallery. The sound was terrible. Couldn't hear anything. Momus
have a really soothing beautiful voice but all I heard that evening
was some shouting about a penis! And believe me, I didn't want to know
about it! Too fucking crowded. Besides, I don't think Momus has ANY
charisma and as a performer he just sucks cock. The winds of pretense
have aged the little boy and left him fucking hollow. No emotion in
that guy. Sorry.
ONE LOVE!

She got run over. By a tram.

Quite. A bit frugile on the material. Bring back high waist band and
Wigan's Ovation.

Well yes, but what an i to do? I am my own role model.

You have to fight for your right to party, and all the pretty things
were near the front, so you should have mingled; then maybe someone
would have sucked your cock.

It wasn't the band, Momus.

He was sucking everyones cock. That's what he does.

Well as we all know, you need to 'pack it in' well when you're
'fucking hollow'.
Pack It In is just about the funniest thing anyone can say. I remember
when my first girlfiend.........

> that guy. Sorry.
Yeah you should be sorry for not having noticed the selfevident fact
that mr nick currie is a vulcan. and for thinking that emotions are
the only thing sthat can be expressed in a music performance. and for
thinking that expressed emotivity is more "real" in some shows(f.e.
cat power's shows) than in others ...
well sorry for this
basically I'm an hippie too
peace and love
Nick Currie
> that mr nick currie is a vulcan.
Hmm, if I had feelings would it hurt my feelings when people say I have
no feelings? That would seem a logical assumption, Captain.

Cat Power any day! Momus is dope though, I especially liked his last
post about emotions! Shit was just ill! But hey, I like Momus this
season because kid's got mad short pants and according to my issue of
Arena Homme that's the illest fashion shit out there. And Momus is all
about fashion! Fucking hell, I'm aware that emotion isn't the only
thing to look for in a show, but when everything comes to an end, when
you're laying in your bed dying and reflecting on your life, tell me
emotion isn't the only thing that counts! Fucking wankers! That's why
Vonnegut is a fucking BITCH and Bukowski is the fucking man! EMOTION.
You know, nothing seperates people more.
ONE LOVE TO YOU "MINGLERS"

shivery nervousness. She's gone too far! Will Oldham can be fake folk
all he wants, but our culture isn't ready for fake folk portrayed
faintly. I heard from a worthy drinking buddy of hers that her core
fanbase has been eroding since the last album. And she sounds nothing
like a Cat!I heard she does not even like cats! What the fuck does
Bukowski have to do with Vonnegut? Other than the seventh grade
reading level connection.
monkchild
fucking idiot, that's what I fucking said. LISTEN.
PS: When your kid attends seventh grade I'd love to see him read
Bukowski, you could let him fuck your wife, drink with you and leave
him at the whorehouse after work.
Seventh grade reading, pff!

content, which is why I was made to read books about the Holocaust in
grade school, and why most people I know began reading Bukowski at 14
or 15. Nothing against the man, but admit that it is easy reading.
Which is certainly part of his appeal.
p.s.I'm glad that you admit that Bukowski has nothing to do with
Vonnegut, and I await your many posts about why apples are more
emotionally charged and poignant than oranges.

I just came home from a KesselsKramer talk, fucking wonderful! I tell
you that, fucking wonderful! If Momus cuts down on the Comme des
Garcons and Vivienne Westwood bargains he might be able to afford them
to do marketing on his next album! Fucking wonderful, I tell you that.
Now my friend, don't draw me into your rhetorical mess by saying I
admit to anything! I don't admit to anything! I said it in the first
place!
I guess I started reading Bukowski a bit late, when I was 19 (still my
age). But I've always been a fucking underachiever at school, and
proud of it, too! That lazy slacker style is just BRILLIANT!
I'm curious to know what my next level could be in my persuit of
someday understanding sonnets! Or is that me? Did I get something
fucked up? Is sonnets 4th grade shit? I've never understood what the
word meant so I've always assumed the content part was even harder!
You know, fucking logic if you ask me!
I think apples and oranges are competing for who's most emotional!
ORANGE got some ill brandign strategy going but that iMac funkyness is
not to snicker at! I tell you that, not to snicker at! REAL QUALITY
ADS!
SIGNING OFF,
YOUR FRIEND KRISTIAN AGE 19.

KesselsKramer (Dutch advertising agency) are fantastic, they have the
most 'folktronic' offices imagineable, a converted church in central
Amsterdam full of huts and picket fences. Their campaigns are stuff like
'Hans Brinker Hotel: More dog shit in the main entrance'! I dread to
think what their campaign for Momus records would be like...
Nick
monkchild
thought they were another agency trying to be hip and experimenting
for the sake of it (nothing wrong with that, as long as it's sincere).
But that church is fucking dope! I actually think their dog shit stuff
for Brinker was the weakest, all the other stuff they did for Brinker
is hot! Also, that "Just Like Home" campaign for Brinker is a bit
tame! Take a look at what DDB did for Avis back in the day! They
truely turned a less favorable position (being number 2 in the car
rental market) into the most desirable thing! Now, that's fucking
persuasive. Doesn't compare to any irony or corny humor a la what
Mother does in London!
KesselsKramer long live!
