This is most definitely my favourite piece of entertainment at the moment.

West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum
Yes, the title is a mouth and half full.
Yes, it sounds as though a few words have been plucked from obscurity to form this title.
Yes, Tom needs a haircut (Back to the old days please thank you).
Yes, I am looking forward to a nice family outing when I go and see them at the Eden Sessions (Myself, my Mum and my little Brother dontcha know)
YES, I love the cover of the new album:

Starting Tomorrow This Post will be Irrelevant
See that picture down the page?
Yea, that one.
Of Little Boots and my friend and I...
It's in the NME.
Because I sent it in obviously, in order to make all my 16 year old dreams come true.
That cheered me up a little bit when I woke up last Thursday to find the news on my Facebook...
Apart from that, I'm a bit slow on the old news at the mo, this is for a number of reasons:
1 - I've been at home visiting the family for the last few days,
and
2 - I'm supposed to be writing a disseration. Whilst staring out the window at the fabulous weather feeling extremely sorry for myself...
*Le sigh*

Me, get excited about things?? NEVER!
I've been to Electric Picnic three times before, and I can safely say it is wondrous...
So much... Madness, for want of a better word...
The last time was 2007, we stayed up all night, wandering the forests where there were loads of things hiding, in the Lost Vagueness tent, watching films in the cinema tent, including The Wizard of Oz. Synced to Pink Floyd. It was bizarre...
In the day it was equally as weird... Not to mention the music. Of course. Although I did miss Yeah Yeah Yeahs in 2006, for which I will never forgive a certain ex-partner. But despite that, it is amazing, and I would recommend ANYONE to go...
My reusable pint cup from 2007 is still in use... And oh how I love it so.
ENOUGH! I'm off to book some flights...

No Time Wasted
Literally, within a matter of minutes of this being broadcast, it's online.
Bat For Lashes Radio One Live Lounge Session.
She's so lovely.... And the cover's cool... As is that tinkly little Marxophone instrument which is being played (which I have only just discovered what it's called/is)

(Pointless post in an attempt to cure my distraction)
..Although I highly doubt this will work...
I have approximately 45% of my dissertation written up to now.
However, I only have approximately 21 days to complete the final 55%.
(The above statement is indeed a scare tactic, directed at myself... Time will only tell if this works....)
But surprise surprise, the internet serves as a wonderful tool of distraction. Especially when info you have to research is, as in my case, music related...
Also adding to such distraction is the arrival of the new Bat For Lashes album 'Two Suns'.
In some senses related to my dissertation research, I have discovered this These New Puritans remix of Patrick Wolf's 'Vulture' which is keeping me entertained somewhat...
Twitter keeps overloading, as much as I like the 'whale-being-lifted' illustration that pops up when this happens, it's making me somewhat upset... I should take it as a sign...

So, Little Boots did most definitely come and visit our 'humble' SU.
And it was ever so fabulous.
So much so I don't think I've stopped talked about it for the last three days...
I haven't looked forward to a gig like I did that one for a LONG time... Seriously, I'd been excited about it since I found out before Christmas... And I was certainly not disappointed.
And as promised, here are some rubbish photos, taken by a short girl, in the middle of the crowd, with plenty of other people's hands/faces/limbs included....
Tenorion face
I got a shout out because of my dress, which lead to my friend and I (along with half of the crowd) harassing the lovely lady after the gig...
We are clearly meant to be best friends.

In anticipation of tomorrow...
Here is the making of 'Daniel' by the wonderful Natasha Khan...
I am very excited for my delivery of the new album tomorrow...
As well as that of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and this is the final instalment of the SNAKESWEAT trilogy, featuring the one and only Ms Karen O...
Oooo err.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Little Boots is coming to visit my SU tonight...
I am very excited.
Such excitement has lead me to t'internet stalking a little bit more than usual.
She's in the uni library...
(Thank you Twitter)
Please be prepared for a rambling post about how good it was/some pictures taken by a short girl in the middle of crowd - translation - 'rubbish photos' some time after tomorrow...
