Blogwatch

Welcome...

What's New, Pussycat? is the home of an Aussie lady living in Edinburgh, and comes personally recommended by Jonathan (whose own site is a must-visit).

Meanwhile...

Pete discovers that not every band (and their fans) can shrug off a critical review penned by an enthusiastic gig-goer determined to expose himself to as much of the local music scene as he can in the space of a fortnight. No prizes for guessing who comes off looking rather foolish.

Elsewhere...

Dave rounds up his pick of the year's albums.

The Girl admires "the shape of the lead singer of Maximo Park’s arse".

Mike's Post Of The Week feature continues to throw up gems that would otherwise have passed me by - this week, this tale of coitus interruptus spectaculus from Acephalous (BTW best wishes for China, Mike!).

Inspector Sands recounts the time he went along to a school reunion - "Unfortunately, the undynamic duo who organised the night actually only had one motive in mind - to meet a woman they'd both fancied the arse off while we were at school".

Betty pleads for sanity and a victory for The Pop Group on the ITV's 'Record Of The Year', where they were up against such songs as "'Walking Through Town Is Quite SCAREY, A Man In A Tracksuit APPROACHED Me'" by The Kaiser Chiefs and "'You Climb Me Up The Highest Mountain'" by Westlife.

Bytheseashore guest edits Swiss Toni's Earworms Of The Week feature, his list featuring Franz Ferdinand, The Wedding Present, an imaginary bootleg of The Datsuns' 'Harmonic Generator' and The Beach Boys' 'Do It Again' and, er, Mariah Carey.

And finally...

Jonny B finally admits defeat and bases a post on the sort of event that would have the rest of us itching to get at the computer, rather than working his usual magic on anecdotes about moving tables in pubs. More blog posts should begin with the line: "...which is the piece of skin between the vagina and the bumhole"...
