People!

Avoid "I Am Legend".

Awful. Awful. Awful.

CGI "monsters", CGI deer, CGI everything that's not Will Smith.

It makes a mockery of the excellent book written by Richard Matheson. In that the creatures who were after the main characters blood were vampires who could speak & every night they'd taunt him & the women, knowing he was all alone with no female company, would flash their parts at him.

Also in this shitstorm of a film, Will Smith says that "Legend" by Bob fucking Marley is "The best album ever made" but it's a compilation. It's the same as Alan Partridge saying his favourite Beatles album is "the best of The Beatles".

I can't remember being as angry about a film since the last 2 minutes of "Unbreakable".

Baby Don't Go For Anyone

Here-


is the video for The Voluntary Butler Scheme's first single "Trading Things In"

Rob (who is the VBS) drummed for us, stepping in at the last minute when our previous drummer pulled out of our planned tour last February & he's the drummer on the third LP.

God bless you sir.

The Buds Were Bursting & The Air Smelt Sweet & Strange

Sometimes I wonder what would have happened had some members kept their members in their pants.
