Wild Boar Is My Mistress

Continuing my quest to become Nathan Barley, last night I attended a semi-hilarious postmodern-ironic thrash gig at Camden's "legendary" Barfly, played by Ed Harcourt's new postmodern-ironic middle-class West London punk band, Wild Boar. They have pig masks and everything! They would have had horse's head masks but they got lost in France! Lots of postmodern-ironic screaming, posturing and songs with names like "Drugs Are Bad" and "Wild Boar Is My Mistress". Still, it was nice to see the hordes of Camden Indie Kids taking it all so seriously. Awww, bless.

In other news related to the unleashing of my inner rock chick (steady...), my tickets for Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds on the 25th Aug have finally arrived. Ohhh, this is going to be so great.

This is all gibberish to me, obviously. But I do relate to the piggyness of the music, even though my taste runs more to The Marriage of Pigaro, Pigoletto, Trottertore, Simon Baconandeggra etc etc.
