Mastercard recently sent me a pamphlet trying to entice me to sign up to their Applause online ticketing website. They obviously know that I fear the internet, so they were cleverly running a competition to “win the ultimate music experience” if I signed up. “Awesome,” I mentally exclaimed. “If I win I’ll get to go back [...] People get to my website by googling questions they need answers for. As my blog currently can’t provide these answers, I have taken the liberty of answering some of the more popular ones. What rhymes with Robyn? Dave Dobbyn. What to say as weeding MC? Something about a ho. What does Buffalo Stance mean? Let’s start with Buffalo. The Face magazine [...] Famous hip hop star and slatted-sunglasses-wearer Kanye West has a blog where he notoriously writes in all-caps and in a particular rambling style. As Mr West is the dopeness, I have decided to now write in this style in order to make my “blog” more attractive to the lucrative 18 to 35 youth demographic. THERE HAVE [...] In 1994, a rogue postie, known only as Warren C, was found to have been hoarding thousands of undelivered, unopened letters, some of which were so old they had been partially eaten by vermin. Fortunately, most of the letters were able to be delivered to their intended recipients, but one particular package containing a manuscript of [...] So, I was a week into Movember, when I realised that my moustache wasn’t growing.

But then I realised that among my bits and pieces, I had a short film dating from 2001. It was the result of Dylan and Ryan and me mucking [...] It has been brought to my attention that Prime Devastation, Hamilton’s hardest working metal band, who also take time out for family/work/sporting commitments, are now on MySpace. Fans of the ‘Dev have been asking for this for a long time, so it will be good news to both PD fans and the metaller community in general. So [...] Because it is Saturday and there is nothing else to do. — People hassle Britney Spears and say she is dumb and a bad mother, but actually I think she is actually quite smart. She and I have a lot in common because I am actually only exactly three months older than her and I don’t think [...] Mon ami Ashura666 is in town and we’ve been having a jolly good time exploring Auckland and beyond. People have been asking how it was that I came to meet Ashura666, or Ashura-san as we call him sometimes. In fact, it wasn’t until today when Emma from Sydney, who was part of a hen’s [...] |
