for those lacking knowledge of the french language, School is finished and Mr Pete
School roughly over for another year just a few exams and some review day thingies left and what a rubbish year its been. Dropping out of my maths class half way and so being looked upon as a failure by several teachers, various other failings and probably some other shit.
Not all bad though, the discovering of the Wimbledon Village Bakery, expensive but worth every penny, that place sells baked paradise.
Anyway its over so enough of that.... Moving on to more important matters - Stalking Pete Doherty, i hope everyone watched this programme with intent
Even though it wasnt particularly about Petey, it was more about the interviewer it was still a worthwhile watch, by the end i was wanting to hit that Max Carlish (documentary maker) myself, what a total prat he is.

Call that talent?
In my previous post i talked of music reinventing itself, yes, fair enough there is nothing new to create so new bands take what old bands did and adapt it for a modern audience, but Coldplay take the biscuit...
They are so bloody cocky that they take their own song and ever so slightly adapt it and release it again.
Some people might be wondering what the hell i'm on about, but the more observant (does that work with listening) of you will have noticed that coldplays latest cuncoction - speed of sound sounds like a remixed version of Clocks, I mean even I could re-release a song that had already been written. I just wanted to get this off my chest as it really pissed me off.
Something else that pisses me off, I have to wait until July at least before the babyshambles album to come out, why must they torture me so? -
Music reinventing itself
Parents what are they good for?
Some may cook for you, wash your clothes, etc. but that not what im thinking of...
Although my Mums taste in music rarely branches away from elvis presley, my dads taste in music is genuinly quite good!
In listening to various collections of my dads music, i have noticed that new bands infact sound the same as old bands from the 1970s and 1980s... just a few examples:
The Libertines - Early stuff from The Cure
The Killers - Echo and the Bunnymen
The Strokes - Velvet Underground
Im sure there are several more that i cant remember, but other bands from this sort of period worth listening to:
The Who, The Doors, The Clash, T-Rex, The Jam
