I watch a few TV shows, chief amongst them being Breaking Bad, which is on a “mid-season” break ahead of its conclusion next year. Dave from Blogography has put together an excellent review of Stateside TV shows (which we eventually get here in one way or another) so I’d highly recommend a read of it. Next up on my list is Boardwalk Empire Season 3.
I’m a big fan of black comedies so went to see Sightseers this afternoon in the IFI. It charts the relationship and travels of Tina and Chris who don’t have a lot of tolerance when it comes to people. Well, they murder a good few anyway. It’s really funny throughout and the performances are excellent. Recommended.
Just published my FIFA 13 review over on culch so click through to read it.
First let me start off by saying that I hadn’t listened to an LCD Soundsystem album up until two weeks ago when I bought ‘Sound of Silver’. Last night was the premiere of “Shut Up And Play The Hits” which is the concert film directed by Will Lovelace and Dylan Southern of the band’s last ever gig in Madison Square Garden. The gig footage is the highlight and is inter cut with footage of James Murphy explaining his decision on ending the band on such a high. It’s clear that the guy isn’t sure whether he’s doing the right thing or not and he’ll only realistically know in hindsight. Fair balls to him on doing it though cos as he says himself: “I want to do other stuff. I like to make coffee”.
Then head over here and follow the instructions. 🙂 I can honestly say it was the best festival I was at last year and the lineup this year is superb. Standard weekend camping tickets are €85 and you can view the full lineup on spiritoffolk.com
