NYUB needs U
Yes you. The pressure of creating a podcast every 2 weeks for 9,000+ people is starting to mount....so, to ease the burden a wee bit, I need you. Yes you. What can you do? If you're an NYUB listener then you know the shit I like. If you've seen some good bands around and you think you're up to doing a live skype mini-DJ session then let me know.
Dead Kennedys - Live (not quite an errorplains gig though)
You might have seen my Jello Biafra quote so I had to check out a post on Headphone Sex featuring some footage of the Dead Kennedy's on youtube. Note the guy waiting in the back to time his 'perfect' jump right at the end.
If you feel like a stage dive on Feb 20th, then check out London's favourite electro/death-pop outfit the errorplains at Madame Jo Jo's, London. Trabant from Iceland and The Girls from Wall of Sound will be there too.

Arctic Monkeys & NME Fatigue
Check out NME's supposed top 10 UK albums, EVER.
1. The Stone Roses 'The Stone Roses'
2. The Smiths 'The Queen Is Dead'
3. Oasis 'Definitely Maybe'
4. Sex Pistols 'Never Mind The Bollocks'
5. Arctic Monkeys 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not'
6. Blur 'Modern Life Is Rubbish'
7. Pulp 'Different Class'
8. The Clash 'London Calling'
9. The Beatles 'Revolver'
10. The Libertines 'Up The Bracket'
What's that sitting in at number 5? Could it be a band that's only just released it's debut album last week? Pitchfork confirms the worst kept secret in town:
'NME editor Conor McNicholas told The Guardian last year that "there's a big sofa supermarket by Doncaster train station. I always look at it and think someone's got a Saturday job there, they're 17, they're stuck in Doncaster and they fucking hate it-- that's the person we're publishing for." I'd guess that to a disaffected, chavbaiting 17-year-old from Doncaster (or Rotherham, or Hull...) this is the perfect soundtrack to moving loveseats around a stock room. Fittingly then the NME awarded this album a 10/10. To the rest of us, however, the album is at times charming, oddly affecting, and certainly promising but understandably something less than life changing.'
On a lighter note. Girls aloud are playing at my work party next week. Check out the Arctic Monkeys covering 'Love Machine'
