I've been buried under work again and haven't had time to work on any of my creative outlets. It's painful because I've got some ideas I'd like to follow up on, and I've come in contact with some new and exciting things.

My lovely friends Sara and Rick sorted me out recently, with a badass industrial-looking sweater. There's one semi-industrial club I know of in Copenhagen, but I've only bothered going once because it's only open on certain Fridays during the month, and it doesn't open till 1 am (by which point I'm usually too exhausted from work to do much dancing). But now I'm inspired.

Anyone wants to meet me at Stengade 30 the next time they do the Hardcore Night, let me know.

Another brilliant find came from Jeremy, who turned me on to a band called "Lyumeni" that sounds exactly like a Russian version of Stereolab. It was love at first listen for me. I've been checking the links, looking for a Western European tour, but nothing yet. Go here and download some tracks...

I was meant to go to Orlando in March on a mission with work, but we just had our travel budget slashed so I was cut from the delegation. I'm a little disappointed, because someone I met on Tribe.net who lives in Florida gave me a heads-up on a good club there called Eye Spy. Apparently you need to get a password to be let in the door (they send you the password if you query their site). I'm a big fan of "face control" anyway, and I just think the password thing is a cool marketing idea.

Thanks for turning me on to the club, Jude. Pity I can't make it.

I guess the positive side of getting cut is that I get to catch Chicks on Speed, who's coming to town when I would have been out of the country.

Lastly for tonight, I had another one of those fucked up, incredibly detailed dreams I've been having lately. The Americans had just bombed Warsaw, Bucharest and Minsk, bombed them hard... there were thousands of civilian casualties. In the dream I was in a Romanian refugee camp, a huge outdoor triage area surrounded by the burned and bleeding survivors, trying to figure out why it happened. Creepy way to wake up.
