Oh, go on then...

So this is Mini Frod, then. AKA Lola Bee. But she's a tiger here, so look scared, yeah?

(Currently Lola is taking after her old man in that, whilst in the car, she insists on any music being 'REALLY LOUD', and I do mean really loud, but it's mainly the new Elbow album so that's ok, I guess, even for Mrs Frod...)

Just be worried if she starts singing out loud to Grounds For Divorce ...

And just how long have tigers been loose in the West of Ireland, exactly??

Bit puzzled by the 'instructions' on new Elbow. Seems to suggest it's a bit of a 'quieter than some' album and then you get BAAAAAAMMM! at 1 minute in on the first track. Business as usual really. Glad Minifrod likes it though.

D'sD: the tigers were set loose by Pink Floyd in the early eighties. Like the rabbit, grey squirrel, japanese seaweed, American bullfrog, Starbucks, etc, this didn't make much news at the time. It's only now we're reaping the ecological disaster.

Is Lola's middle name really Bee? That's too fab!!

Blimpy - Her middle name is, indeed, Bee. Or Beezer, Beeston, Bizzle or Business, depending on how we feel on the day. She rules.

Proudfoot - your history is almost correct but, I believe, it was actually Roger Waters, acting alone, who was responsible. It was an act of maliciousness against the supposed 'mick-leaning tendencies' of Gilmour et al. Acrimony, huh?

And as for the Elbow album, the volume thing puzzles me too. I even visited the site it tells you to check and that didn't help any more. Could it just be a bit of a jape?... GREAT record though (ITV football coverage notwithstanding).

Proudfoot said...

I think you're right. They're gently ribbing us. Or just checking if people still read album notes.

Beauty!! What a happy picture.

We might be a bunch of loosers, but the next generation of 'Spillers are going to be effin gorgeous.
