Congrats! That's fantastic!!! As I don't know their music it's a bit hard.. but read through alot of interviews and pick out the questions that seem to get the interviewee talking alot and interested. Hmm, maybe things like: "You have been likened to (this band and this band), but are there any bands that have inspired your music which may not come through in your sound?" "Do you have a favourite song from your album?" "Have you ever played any obscure instruments?" "Did you have a musical childhood?" "Fondest memory of the first band you saw live which you said 'fuck yeah' to?" Ah, that's it. As i said, it is hard to know what to ask when I shit-fuck about them! excuse my swearing! gotta go.. hope it goes very well

Oh Smurph! Ditto ditto ditto! As a drummer you would appreciate his return to the kit with QOTSA aswell. The clip for "Noone Knows" is great to 'air' drum along to. I think the Foo are fantastic. I was lucky enough to meet them at an instore (as a VIP guest!) they did a few years ago in Sydney. They will be touring here for the Big Day Out festival in January and so will Queens of th... so I am fucking excited.. Can't wait to rock out to these bands. ps. good luck with the solo project!

Oh Sloz, I didn't mean to like rub it in or anything. I'm quite ignorant of what the music scene is like in Isreal. Please forgive my 'gloating' if it came across that way. Australia does get alot of international acts, but it is usually all in the summer months, therefore I end up totally broke or can't go and see everything I want to. Our festivals are great though, they are like my soul, my heart, everything in my life. "ATTENTION ALL BRILLIANT BANDS THAT SHLOZM LOVES" GET YOUR ASSES TO ISRAEL NOW OR ELSE FACE EXTREME CONSEQUENCES (which have yet to be decided upon)"

there's supergrass and pearl jam greatest hits if anybody cares... I would LOVE to see that. Supergrass are fantastic (saw them live in July) and Pearl Jam are just beautiful musicians. I had the biggest crush on Eddie Vedder when I was 15 They are touring Australia again in February! Seen 'em twice already and they are just fabulous live!

There was a Clash special on RAGE on Saturday night, bought back memories of my dad's old records and my parents parties.
RIP Mr Strummer xx

(because I'm lacking sleep, enery & conciousness this is a copy/paste from PJH.net ) What an absolutely amazing show I witnessed last night! It left me gasping for more.. and more! Nick Oliveri is a bass-wielding beast (and not bad on the eye either – I was secretly hoping for the nudist in him to reappear, but alas the legend remains ) and Josh Homme could never let you down with his vocal and guitar prowess, my expectations were sent skyrocketing last night by the sheer power, strength and mind-blowing musicianship of these Queens. Can someone tell me who is currently wearing the pants behind the kit? For anyone who appreciates drummers (yes Smurphy, those poor unappreciated souls) you would be amazed by his skill. I was spellbound watching this unfold, this tight unit of ferocious energy and melodic bliss (Close your eyes and see the sky is falling…). Ah – trying to piece this all together in my sleep deprived, slightly seedy state is an arduous task! From 21st – 29th January is going down as “Leewah’s greatest musical week of all time”. 21st Jan – PJ Harvey + Tex Perkins 23rd Jan – QOTSA 25th Jan – Big Day Out (PJ, QOTSA, Jane’s Addiction, Foo, Underworld, Kraftwerk, The Vines, Sparta, Bluebottle Kiss, Deftones, You Am I (ok, you get the picture!) 26th Jan – JJJ Hottest 100 countdown (backyard cricket, the blow up kiddy pool on standby for the heat). 29th Jan – The Vines + Magic Dirt (my fave Oz band) Help me!!! This is too much! Hell, no complaints by me but my body will be screaming for a rest (and what’s with the ringing in the ears eh??) I had to share this, my dribbling expose. Love to the Lovers xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

For any Massive Attack fans, their new album is due out in Australia (so I'm presuming in other parts of this universe aswell) next week and is titled: "100th Window".

Thanks Rasp my sweetheart I haven't bought The Music's album yet, but I will. There's been lots of radio play and as I said, their live performance was brilliant. I knew Andrew had great taste I'll try and keep up a little more ok! Miss you too. Leah xxx
