i had entirely forgotten how awesome this first series was! haha even the demolition of the "gay funeral" scene from 4weddings -- which ought to be a one-off gag that doesn't bear repeating -- is great, just cz of the way they all arrive

anyway this is in loneloonies bcz of the way the narrative just GRABS at (often quite bad) pop-o-the-moment and fucks its brains out makes it work suddenly, just for that moment

Pop Open Group L: THE EIGHTIES

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Eighties! We're living in the Eighties! Four tracks available at http://freakytrigger.co.uk/ft/2007/10/pop-open-week-12/ in streamed form. My PC was erratic last night so I wasn't able to put them up as a zipfile - I will sort this out tonight.

Anyway, give them a listen, decide which you like best, vote below. This poll will run until next Monday lunchtime.

[Poll #1072847]

Thanks to the four contestants, though I've forgotten who one of them is so I won't name names.

at some point workin on the c0ntr0l essay and lookin back over stuff i realised that the thing that had always unsettled me MOST abt i.curtis = HIS TROUSERS


(this is an image from the session i got unsettled by, but i can't find the real-deal picture: probably i need someone w.a way better style eye than me, not to mention the actual picture itself)
