You may be skint, you may be unconvinced, you may just like the thrill of the unknown - if so, why not enter our on-line competition to win free tickets for the up-coming "Looking Rough at 30" shows? All you have to do is e-mail Mr Ryan McCann at ryan.mccann@roughtraderecords.com (stating your venue of choice) & he will randomly select 8 lucky winners. What have you got to lose?

Ok,ok, ok - if you were my child you would have been taken off me, due to neglect. I never told you about South America, I never told you about North America, I never told you about Greenland, I never told you about Scott (Walker) Land. But I CAN tell you this: the new era is beginning.Oh yes. Something is happening isn't it? Things feel different - like we all just woke up after a particularly bad dream. It's not time to punch the air just yet but it IS time to get out of bed & get dressed. And put some decent clothes on will yer? Concerts in a week's time; a chance to meet up face to face & breathe the same air. The physical realm DOES exist. I'm not sure exactly what's going to happen but I know I wouldn't miss it for the world. It's not about me. It's not about you. It's about us.
Loving you xx Jarvis

Update: Competition now closed!!!

Glad to have you back Jarvis.

Will you be playing any new material from your upcoming 2nd album? Or any of the Pulp classics?

Speaking of the second album, is their a release date yet?

Thanks James

Excellent! I missed out on tickets because, well, I didn't know it was on, since I'm abroad et al. Just happens to coincide with a London trip. Excellent, just excellent... see Nick & you in the space of 3 days... that'd make an otherwise very boring business trip just the dog's bollocks!

As for the getting out of bed & dressed and the brand new day stuff (sounding very Sting-y there, scary stuff), how about a shave first? ;)

What's this?? Concerts when I'm going to be on the same land mass? Why wasn't I told?

Feeling very excited- off to check dates and whatever -

Leonard Cohen- David Habbin- David Tennant- Patrick Stewart- John Barrowman AND Jarvis Cocker??

Be still my heart -

If I were in the same room as Jarvis, Barrowman and Tennant, I'd...well, I'm not sure what I'd do, really. Probably just stand there grinning like an idiot. :o)

Saw you on a program about 'In The City', with your pointy stick and Power Point. Seems you've been a busy man, so we'll let you away with this lapse in blogging... I would quite like to hear about Greenland, though!

See you in Edinburgh. xx

I'd like to imagine you more as a hands-on stepdad, maybe a little too hands on.

As for looking rough, I look ridiculously young for pushing 30. That portrait hidden in the back of the closet, however . . . Please, come back to America! The girls of California still have so many articles of clothing to throw at you! (Wasn't that a little ridiculous, or are you used to that by now?)

I'm four years shy of thirty- so it'll be one more thing to look forward to! But I get that feeling you describe every morning (and afternoon and evening) when I wake up, complete with air-punches- and your music's still one of the reasons why! So stay happy.

Good to see the Greenland photos in Word. The beard certainly adds to the explorer vibe.
Good luck with the tour- I'm looking forward to Wednesday, sounds intriguing.

Being a confirmed pessimist I am unable to enjoy competitions. Very sad, I know. Thank you all the same. And it's nice to hear that at least one person feels a new era is beginning.

Hi Jarvis!

Many thanks for the competition. I won!

I have to admit that I've never seen you perform live before, so I'm really looking forward to it!

See you on Sunday!

Me too!

Will be in Edinburgh on Friday. I've cancelled a work's leaving do because of this, well, I'm moving departments. In all honestly, as I work in a library, I didn't have particularly high hopes of it being a banging night.

I desperately wanted to go to the Edinburgh gig on Friday but I've tickets to some comedy that night.
So I bussed it to Sheffield from Aberdeen on Tuesday instead. Nine hours that took. Well worth it though. Thank you for everything.

Beard: Yes. Well done.

Just spazzed out (technical term, but I really must stop using it...) about the whole thing through the medium of typing on my blog. Feel free to browse/allow your ego to be massaged: http://inneskiadventures.wordpress.com/2008/11/27/niceonegeezer/
It's only semi-legible but hey ho...

All the love,
