i think that was the first time 首輪 has been in our set this year, so the first time we have played it as a five-piece. that song has been with us since our first demo over four years ago, and it feels good to play it again and for it to feel brand new with kanemitsu's vocals and stu's guitar. also we have been getting good feedback on the new songs that have been in our sets the past few weeks - cannot wait to get these recorded and make them available to everyone. aiming to get something recorded and released within this year....
so, the olympics start in 9 (?) days, and the london transportation system is still completely unprepared and the security arrangements are a shambles. i must say i am quite glad not to be in britain this summer. i would be one of those people who rented out their house to tourists and got outta the country for a month. Tokyo has been trying to get them for a while, with a failed olympic bid for 2016 and now they are trying again for 2020. i have still yet to meet a single person who is enthusiastic about getting the olympics here, but would be interested to hear the opinion of anyone who is. it just seems like a great way to put the country in a lot of debt.
speaking of "failed olympic bid"s, the greatest band out of my hometown, Future of the Left, have just put out another great record containing a song with that title. lyrics go:
"I got a home for the millennium dome
a heart disease ward underwritten by mcdonalds
you got funding while i got fat
on a training programme for type 2 diabetes
but a failed olympic bid gets some kids so upset, they cant forget
a failed olympic bid gets some kids so upset, they cant forget"
i definitely recommend their new record, but if you're new to FotL, it might be better to start with some earlier stuff. Here is a great one from their first record. "MANCHASM":
we are playing on Friday night July 20th at Ruby Room. The event page is herrrree, i think we will be on from 10ish (but i forgot to bring my racket!):
