It feels great to announce that England's perhaps finest purveyors of fuzzy guitar pop at moment, Horowitz, will be coming to Malmö very soon. They've just released a ep and a 7" is on the way. They will be joined by Leaving Mornington Crescent, right here from Malmö. They have released their first ep and just did their first ever gig, together with Harvey Williams!

We decided to go ahead and continue with the club this autumn, since we've had requests from both Horowitz and Wake the President to come over to Sweden! This is our september date - no live music, but Daniel from So Tough! So Cute! will do one of his last sets before he leaves us for London.

Yes we are back! Once again Uni will be playing for us, but this time back home in Sweden. Actually it's her first gig in Sweden, so we're proud to be host her first, before she goes to play in Stockholm and Jönköping. And what's even better is that Pierre from Don't Tell Me That! will be coming down to guest dj!



Otherwise, everything is as usual.

These songs have been up throughout July and some of August already, so it's high time to change them. Unfortunately I never found time to write more about them! I only found out that The Lady-bugs were Jackie DeShannon and The Murmaids - making an outing with a Kim Fowley-penned super hit!

The Thursday before Indietracks provided some of us with a glimpse of Northern Portrait's full glory for the first time - actually the sound was better than a few days later in the train shed. Arriving late (due to a lost tent at Heathrow) they leapt on stage and unlike Orange Juice they could REALLY play. The combined sound of the Gretsch, Rickenbacker and Fender Jaguar was almost too much for my ears (and heart)! Pocketbooks sounded as great as usual and rightfully deserved their place at the top of the bill.

So, I was meant to play records between the bands but because the soundcheck dragged on I could only play a few of the songs me and Alex had painstakingly (or gleefully, rather) prepared for the night when I was in Melbourne a few weeks ago. I chose the first song, then Alex chose one and so on:

Aztec Camera - Just Like Gold
The Bank Holidays - The City Is Too Small
The Faintest Ideas - Everything Is Black
The Shapiros - Cry For a Shadow
Sleepy Township - Singing Doll
The Go-Betweens - People Say
Jay Reatard - Don't Let Him Come Back
The Left Banke - She May Call You Up Tonight
The School - And Suddenly
Sandy Fox - Freckles
Glenda Collins - Thou Shalt Not Steal
Stereo Total - L'amour á 3
Liechtenstein - Sophistication
Tiger Trap - Puzzle Pieces
Spectrals - Leave Me Be

After that I had to hand over to Andrew from Lucky Soul, so no one ever got to hear the rest:

Lio - Banana Split
Twig - Dangerous Kind
Fat Tulips - Nostalgia
Love Parade - Sick Joke
Sun Hill - Music For Modern Lovers
Pencil Tin - Poignant
Saturday Looks Good to Me - Alcohol
World Atlas - World Ending

Since one of the 2 free drinks I got should have been for Alex, here's to her!

So we were in Hamburg on the 10th and it was the first of two gigs A Smile and a Ribbon were doing with The Lucksmiths.

The Chalafontes – He Loves Me
Hurrah! – Around and Around

I'm not sure I actually played each every one of these, cause I don't remember exactly. Should be just about correct though!

I ended up playing for two hours instead of 1½, because the first band (Body Corporate - who were pretty boring) took a long time to start. Then Matthew played before Je Suis Animal came on. They turned in a great set, mostly off the album but also a fantastic version of "Painted In My Face" and a most brilliant cover of Jenny Moss' "Hobbies".

Ballboy – Born In the USA
God Help the Girl – Perfection As a Hipster
Holly Maxwell – Don’t Say You Love Me Until You Do
Very Truly Yours – Uncertain Times
White Night – Birthday
Fabienne Delsol – No Time For Sorrows

The Attack – Anymore Than I Do
caUSE co-MOTION! – It’s Time!
Blank Dogs – Tin Brids
The Field Mice – Fabulous Friend
Razorcuts – I Heard You the First Time
The Pains of Being Pure At Heart – Gothenburg Handshake
The Clientele – Share the Night
Ginny Arnell – Dumb Head
The Floyd Dakil Four – Kitty Kitty
Liechtenstein – Postcard
Wake the President – Miss Tierney
Endless Bob Brown – Never Again
Even As We Speak – Blue Suburban Skies
The Fizzbombs – You Worry Me
The English Muffins – Leave Or Stay
Bobby Goldsboro – Too Many People
Dolly Mixture – How Come You’re Such a Hit With the Boys, Jane?
Shop Assistants – Seems to Be
Camera Obscura – Honey In the Sun
Bob Brady – I Stand Rejected
The Centuries – Yeah It’s Alright
The Manhattan Love Suicides – Never Far From You
The Wedding Present – Go Out and Get ‘Em Boy!
The Dovers – She’s Not Just Anybody

The Baytovens – Waiting For You
Gay Shingleton – In My Time of Sorrow
The Ballroom – Love’s Fatal Way
The Harbinger Complex – Sometimes I Wonder
The Delmonas – Chains
Betty Everett – Let It Be Me

I managed to withstand the tide of people requesting Michael Jackson (DJing on the day of his death was always going to be tough!), with some help from Matthew who explained that I was from Sweden and "didn't know" Jackson had passed away!
