Well, I never did write that INLAND EMPIRE review. The moment seems to have passed now, so I'll leave that for another time. Perhaps in the new year?

By then I'll have taken a short break to Milan in order to see the David Lynch show 'The Air Is On Fire' at the Triennale di Milano. This covers pretty much everything that Lynch has produced over the years outside of the feature films we all know and love - hopefully this will include a few Angriest Dog In The World strips!

I would like to talk about the Carter USM show at Brixton last week, but it seems that's been covered already. It was an absolutely amazing experience and although part of me would like it repeated, it was a great way to bow out, finally, ten years after the split. It was great to see The Sultans again too - I completely missed out on these guys the first time around and it was only at their comeback gigs last year that I came to know them. Think I might look into seeing them when they play London next. Check the website for up to date news! www.sultansofping.com

Talking of live performances, I must mention briefly that Mr Teeth was on the stage last night! Seems he's getting rather prolific these days, what with the Power of the Octopus EP having just been come out. Admittedly it was only a short performance, throwing in some trippy theramin noises to the mix at a loose semi-improvised jam down at the Fawcett Inn's Open-Mic night, but it was good to have our friends up there doing something.

Keith isn't the only one it seems. Our good friend Tessa has been writing in a creative fashion over the past few weeks, and you can check out what she's doing at the Hack Writers website: http://www.hackwriters.com/familylife.htm
