I got the Blur interactive songbook on CD-ROM for XMAS!!!!! Has anyone else got it? it shows you how to play every song off Parklife (how to play like Graham Coxon), plus heaps of other blur related trivia and games (Parkman! lol) I'm guessing this is pretty rare - it was made in about 97. ANywway, tis very very good.

To be honest I got very little for Christmas, largely because of my rapidly advancing age and the fact that my family "don't really go in for that sort of thing".

By Nat on Thursday, December 27, 2001 - 02:04 am:

oh, sigh, BakeSale - I'll send you something! (Make a wish ... )

By Oom Papa! on Thursday, December 27, 2001 - 02:34 pm:

Money, gift vouchers (with which I bought some fantastic trousers), a camera, a headache from spending too much time with relatives, a cuppla CDs (Beck's Mutations and Primal Scream's Vanishing Point), a few cursory glances and some weird little chain thing to hang around your neck which I promptly palmed off to my vaguely appreciative flatmate.

Oo0o0o sugary tea, nice one! Hmm what did I get... A weird little bag I can hardly fit anything into, a rad computer game (...), the Strokes album, a top with a smiley face on it, a necklace, and a pick (from our beloved rythmnmnmnmnmn guitarist, who gave me a string last year. Hmmm from string to pick... I must be in his good books). Oh, and a load of revision from my teachers. Hope everyone had a great Christmas! I didn't. Hehe...

T'would be much appreciated miss Nat, however I've had the old "Isn't all this seasonal commercialism revolting ?" line drummed into my head for so long that I'm kinda used to having a rather slight little stack of presents. But, thanks anyway.

a toothbrush, i was very lucky this year with royalties

Right, you know Alex produced some songs on Sophie Ellis bextor's album? And they were hanging round together at the Turner prize (oh god did you see that? fucking hilarious..)? well, I'm rooting for them to get it together - can you imagine how cute the kids would be? It would be like a genetically programmed floppy fringed pale indie poppet, if a little bit pointy.


right, anyway, i also got the strokes album, and a DVD player! Yay! Unfortunately, I only got one DVD (Life of Brian), so it's getting a wee bit repetitive until I can be arsed to go to Blockbusters.

By Graham Coxon on Thursday, January 3, 2002 - 12:35 am:

A banana. i'm very happy now...

By Song_1 on Saturday, January 5, 2002 - 08:33 am:

By Damon Albarn on Saturday, January 5, 2002 - 08:35 am:

Regaine, hopefully it will help me get back my hair from 1995! Oh yeah and a gold toothbrush for selling my soul to make gorillaz.

By indigo on Saturday, January 5, 2002 - 10:01 am:

Well, I've now been reduced to watching Life of Brian with hebrew subtitles, just for a change. However, I just splurged all my christmas vouchers (adding up to about £70 for amazon.co.uk as well as a slightly less useful one for £10 for a candle shop?!?) on Cary Grant films, the Matrix and selections from the Stanley Kubrick collection. Oh, and the Simpsons of course. Now saving up for Super Furry Animals on DVD!

By ANGIE on Saturday, January 5, 2002 - 03:10 pm:

By Butter Mobile on Saturday, January 5, 2002 - 06:53 pm:

Is that really you, Angie?

By Stu Pot on Tuesday, January 8, 2002 - 04:46 pm:

I got a new mp3 helmet and Thom Yorke in a cage, but I'm getting a bit sick of his singing, he sings about christmas trees and fake plastic trees, so I guess I'll send him back, or maybe give him to Noel so he can dominate the music scene again....uhm....

By the way, Sophie Ellis is mine, Alex can't have her as well, sod off Alex!

By indigo on Tuesday, January 8, 2002 - 08:33 pm:

Hmm, Thom Yorke in a cage - oooh, got the live album for xmas, been listening to it overandoverandover thisisreallyhappeninghappeninghappening
