Hard News: Poor Choices, in reply to Russell Brown,
Okay, we’re through the looking glass.
Julie Burchill has written a column inspired by Charlotte Dawson’s death.
Holy crab-sticks. Perhaps we can upgrade rule number one to ‘Don’t be a Julie Burchill!’

Hard News: Poor Choices, in reply to Emma Hart,
This might be the most thoroughly I’ve derailed a thread for a while…
Yeah, nah. The community that writes together.... something.
I believe this was where the 'Oh, the huge Manatee' line came from too.
It was literally the best of times.

Different spaces lend themselves to different kinds of creativity.
I believe you (we) wrote a story on here once. Something about rugby players, zombies and a ref in a pink top, IIRC? That was the most fun I've had standing up, I mean sitting at a keyboard, in some time.
A P A Story. :-)

I'd like to talk with you about some more ideas too. The slowing down of Capture is not only because I'm a bit tired lately (which I am), but also cause I'd like to do more with it, and if possible, attract more contributors with some monetary incitement. :-)
We should coffee.

Last week Tiny Ruins released the studio version of Me at the museum, You at the Wintergardens along with announcing the release dates of her album Brightly Painted One (2 May). Details and track here.
Interesting also that they have signed to indie UK label Bella Union, which I have to admit I hadn’t really noticed before, although I’m familiar with a number of the artists.
All this is a lead in to what was for me a big discovery. Bella Union is the brainchild of former Cocteau Twins maestro Simon Raymonde, and by searching through the label artists, I found Snowbird, which is Simon himself and the amazing vocalist Stephanie Dosen. Their new album Moon contains some of the nicest 4AD sounding music since… I can’t even remember.
Two singles have been released so far.

All Wishes are GhostsThe white vinyl album, along with a black vinyl remix, is at Real Groovy now, and I can recommend finding a quiet place with a real good speaker setup to drift away into the spaces.
Long post is long. :-)

Beaches, seagulls, sunsets and handstands (or valiant attempts). We has them.

Good call. Really does sound like fun all the same.
