tales from an ordinary world

2000-01-15

Nothing to report...just a quiet day spent in the local area, and mostly in the house. But it's certainly calming.

Now it's 2am and I'm still watching all these old Countdown re-runs on Rage, reminiscing with Lee about all the music back then in the early 80's. And all the things you never really noticed at the time, especially the drugs half the stars look like they were taking just before they appeared live on the show - Iggy Pop was a wonderful example of this, with Molly having great trouble trying to get a coherent interview out of him. Nevertheless, Countdown was a huge musical influence on my life back then. There's never been anything quite like it since then...
