The decks at Hideout



From my gig yesterday - here are the decks at Hideout, taken with my spiffy phone-plus-flash attachment. The flash really makes a difference. Anyway, I had great fun - thanks to all who came, and happy birthday to the bloke celebrating his birthday!

Ryan Adams "Dancing When the Stars Go Blue"
Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros "Redemption Song"
Wilco "Muzzle of Bees"
A.C. Newman "Drink to Me, Then"
Keane "Can't Stop Now"

Verbal agreement

From a Grauniad Guardian article on James Dyson , inventor of the dual-cyclone vacuum cleaner: He still has one major ambition.

He smiles. "I don't think they'll be doing that for long," he says. That struck me as unusual - it's very rare for a firm's leader to say that he wants his product to become a verb. Lots of other companies like TiVo and Google have tried desperately to avoid their name becoming a verb, for fear of the name becoming so generic that the trademark gets diluted.

It's not like there're hundreds of liquor stores in the town, I'm guessing. I like how they keep referring to him as Mr. Jackson...
