    re TsarBucks
    I think they must spend a fortune on product placement – I noticed while reading a particularly frothy Janet Evanovich that she extolled their virtues and name checked them about 5 times on one page!

    Did they ever try and get down with the kids
    and introduce a Goldfrapp-accino?

    My my – you paint with the stuff?

    It’s all it’s good for. Burnt ink is a fair description.

    as long as no one takes burnt umberage…

    re Fails Cafe photo
    Shame on Chch library for their spelling :

    …friends of mine did the demolition of Fails Cafe and have built all those wonderful glass bricks into their kitchen/lounge – it looks great curves, gold leaf signs and all...

    My last concert in Aotea Square was...

    ... DD Smash and that ended in
    the Queen Street Riot of 1984

  • Muse: The High Aesthetic Line,

    Nom de grrrr?...
    Good to see that the recycling ethic is strong at Public Address - Muse being previously used here as part of the title of Chad Taylor's PA Blog Muse Lounge back in the early years of the 21st century, sadly now gone from PA - but vestigial traces still remain within the PA system.
    - just sayin'...

    Happily Chad is still blogging at Marginalia.

    Perhaps you could append the relevant Muse(s) to each post - so this Star Wars one might encompass Melpomene (Tragedy), Urania (Astronomy) with elements of Thalia (Comedy) and Clio (History) - leaving 5 on the bench...

    ...otherwise alternative blog names
    you might use are:
    Ponder - as in pondering to the masses...
    Mews - as in calling all Cats!
    or
    Mews as in Charing Cross...
    ...have fun with this Augean clearing house!

  • Cracker: Gimme Shelter,

    I’m a bit surprised by this. But if you’re sure that’s wise, then who I am to contradict.

    If it happened, then it's fine to report that it happened.

    But surely these are Celebrity Bars and should have name supression!

  • Hard News: A few (more) words on The Hobbit,

    If there's much more of this sandbagging, we'll have to throw in the towel.

    laughs, like a drain....

    ps I miss Neil Burnside and the Sandbaggers!

    Entranced...

    So it was a lift, masquerading as a wee shop? Fantastic.

    very Timelord-like marketing behaviour
    or perhaps the Clock Shops of Isher...

    unless, of course, it's a wind-up...

  • Hard News: A few (more) words on The Hobbit,

    Does anything else think that PAS threads are cross-pollinating?

    Oh they always do

    ...just as long as the bees-in-our-bonnets
    don't get colony collapse disorder
    or a colonic collective new order...
