He played it on WRSI this afternoon and introduced as "Born on the
Wind."  Stunning new song, a bit like "Serpent at the Gates of Wisdom."
He also did an interview and played "Museum of Sex," which sounded
really good, full of energy, even without the band and horns.  
 
Robyn was in fine form in the interview, though he mostly just talked
about 80s guitar sounds and then had to go.  I was disappointed with
what he said about new releases.  He didn't sound very certain but said
the new Venus Three album would probably arrive in 2009 and the Soft
Boys box in 2010.  I had been hoping for a new album this year, not just
re-releases, but . . . the box set looks great too.

> song that may have been called "Born on the Wind." somebody help me
out here.

I think we should retitle albums by The Fall in a seafood theme.

I'll go first, with the easy one: Cod: Shellfish.

more than a bit! i thought it was serpent until he started singing.
betcha dolalrs to doughnuts that you could sing serpent over the music
for "born on the wind" without too much trouble either.

really enjoyed the set last night. not many hits and three new songs,
which is perfectly fine by me. the horse's lovely old piano will always
guarantee a ham-fisted trip though "flavour of night," but was really
surprised to see "nocturne" start off the encore.

i've been waffling on catching some of the other shows on this little
jaunt but last night might have tipped the scales to try to get to at
least one more...

forgot to mention, "born on the wind" has a stinker of a pun at the end
of it which kinda leaves a bad aftertaste.  i won't mention it and ruin
the surprise for everyone else. otherwise, it's a nifty tune.

Interesting stuff noted in my first week back at work after an enforced
vacation (note correct spelling):

The downtown Seattle Sharper Image store is closing.

Bus passed a train, one car of which was graffittoed "Suffer 4 Jesus."

This AM's New York Times runs a farming story which cites a Pennsylvania
official with the unfortunate name of Nichole D. Nazelrod.  Wouldn't have
wanted to be her in junior high...

Hey, I'm glad I easily thought of one for the only Fall album title I know off the top of my head. I did go back and look it up, which is why I knew to spell curious with a K.

It's one of those rare moments of list synchronicity. I've been to 
Blackball - it's a small town that grew up around a coal mine. (It's 
most famous as the birthplace of NZ's trade union movement and Labour 
party, but that's another story) <http://en.wikipedia/wiki/Blackball,

Didn't realise they were still open. They filed Chapter 11 in February.

While most SI stuff was awful tat, we were given one of their "atomic" 
clocks a few years back. While it's ugly (mmm, silvery plastic ...) its 
worked pretty well, and the outside sensor has survived five Canadian 
winters with only battery changes and the occasional disassembly to 
remove spider eggs.
