What's caught my eye in the past few days...

"Is a record you love on first listen necessarily more shallow and of lesser quality than a record you have to warm up with, you have to force yourself to listen to in the beginning to appreciate?" That's the question recently posed over on Close Your Eyes.

The Glastonbury ticket sell-out has inspired reminiscences of heinous tent thievery from Vodkabird. Back in 2000, a friend of mine had his mobile phone and wallet nicked from under the pillow he was sleeping on...

Anna has shared details of her weekend trip to Manchester - a city sadly lacking in establishments which sell the beer of the gods, Hoegaarden. She also has one or two strong words for entrepreneurial gnome and jumper fetishist Richard Branson, whose Virgin Train service proved somewhat less than satisfactory.

Something to look forward to: over the next few days / weeks / months Nate will be posting his 100 Favourite Singles Ever. Lists, glorious lists!

... and finally - congratulations and best wishes to Alex, who, in a mere matter of days, will be a married man.
