hola cerveza …
camden lock to oxford st would probably take about 1/2 an hour to walk … if you really pushed it, maybe faster … you could take the scenic route thru regents park …
but there’s always the bus or tube …
as far as hotels go, it really depends on what you think is cheap … an average london hotel is about 85gbp per room per night … and that doesn’t usually include a breakfast …
if you’re coming all the way from norway can’t you get a package deal with flights, transfers and hotel all in one ?? …
scary ! intense pain is not good ….
speaking as someone who has had // 4 // surgeries over the past year and a half (the last one being last thursday) i can safely say that surgery/recovery takes a lot out of you …
anyhow … hope you feel much better – much sooner than later j … <img>
hey rosa …
i think he said on the bbc radio 6 interview that he’s had the same girlfriend since the summer of ’95 …
in the interview he had to pick a song that made him think of a happy time and he picked a radiohead song from the bends which he said reminded him of being in calif. with his then-new girlfriend … and then he added she’s the same girlfriend he has now … anyhow … you can check that out on the bbc radio 6 website b/c the last time i checked it was still there …
not sure if anyone mentioned this already, but this is what city slang had to say :
+++ City Slang – newsletter +++
+++J MASCIS: playing with himself+++
In November indie rock veteran J Mascis will be on a solo tour. A man and his guitar. No campfire! It`s more a fireworks display of sometimes acoustic-y heart breaking and sometimes earthquaking rock songs with the most sad / beautiful singing ever! You’ve never seen a more kicking one-man-show! But, don‚t take our word for it…check him out on tour in your city this November & December. Go and see.
J MASCIS

hey rosa …
thanks for the review and sorry to hear about your wallet being stolen … but thankfully everything turned out ok in the end (except for your missing wallet that is) … and you got to see the show … // and // you had a great time – as if there was any other way –
also … now you have a lovely new purple sweater !
oh yeah … and there’s nothing wrong with 35mm … much cheaper than many other methods, right ? … would love to see the pix when you get them back
great photos … thanks !!
the yellow light is nice and warm … when he was at the metro club in london last month they had a orange/red light on him the whole time and it gave him a sickly glow …
polite !!! now i don’t know for sure, b/c i obviously don’t know you … so please don’t get me wrong here … but seeing as how jasper wrote that you were in the habit of pissing people off i just guessed you would be a vocal kind of guy when it came to concert-going and requesting songs and that sort of thing …
oh right … hadn’t realized … actually, hadn’t thought about it …
did you ask him to play it when he played the black cat club this summer ??
were you there ?
i don’t know about that … you’d be surprised …
i have a picture on my desk of j (a photocopy of him playing in brighton – june 2001) and every time anyone asks me … hey, who’s that guy ? and i’m like j mascis … you know he used to be in a band called dinosaur jr … they’re like … j who ????
it’s like he’s a best-kept secret in a way …
i got mine from stargeen.co.uk, but you may be able to get them from ticketweb too …
dingwalls tickets are also sold by the record shop just down the rd – on the same side of the rd … can’t think of the name now, but it will come to me …
or if you live nearby just buy them from dingwalls … when they’re closed you can buy them from the bar upstairs (you may have to ask the manager)
hey flying cloud … thanks for that … j seems to be able to express himself better in writing that in conversation …
