Just to provide closure to the whole Vampire Weekend saga; the whole story is too long and uninteresting for me to be bothered typing it all out to an invisible audience so I’ll just sum it up by saying that their PR team or whoever is booking their gigs have no idea how to do their job and that fan clubs should not be allowed for any musical single-sex group that do not sing, dance, wear co-ordinated costumes and appeal to a core fan base of twelve year old girls, or Asians. That is all.
Also I have an assignment due in three days I haven’t started, or properly researched. Nor do I have any idea on how I will approach said assignment. Like usual, it will probably come to me while I sit on the toilet sometime in the future. This is neither surprising, nor particularly new.
Also in recent times my last.fm has been reading as if I’ve been taking music recommendations from Stuff White People Like. On one hand I am secretly pleased that I have somehow managed to build up “indie cred” or something like that, no matter how tenuous (read; bullshit) such a term might be. On the other hand, I have spent an awful lot of money building up the 1/4 of my CD collection that is made up of trashy pop music (both English and otherwise) and I don’t really want it to go to waste. I feel conflicted.
