*.. wishing wells ..*

A good friend of mine, Tine Plesch, gave us a big shock last week by getting sick of a blood poisoning that made her fall into a coma. She still isn’t awake but at least in a stable condition. It makes me feel incredibly helpless and angry and I can’t think of anyting elso to do but hope that thinking of her and deeply wishing her well reaches her somehow.

“razorblades, galangalangalang!” – eve massacre shirts

The wonderful little eve massacre + unmono tour starts this week on Thursday and I’m really looking forward to playing live, especially after having had a great time doing so at the Ladyfest in Stuttgart last week. Of course my cd won’t be ready before the 10th of november – I’m always late so that’s no surprise I guess.

Martin, who did the artwork for it, also had a great idea for T-Shirts and I will carry those as merch. The shirts have a real razor blade sewn on – a razor blade that martin subjected to a lovingly process of rusting and varnishing.

I will also have some coloured 8cm mash up cds with me for those who are still on a slow internet connection. And some old Flamingo Massacres stuff – records and cds.

Here’s a link to a nice new THE PLOT TO BLOW UP THE EIFFEL TOWER song, their next album will be on Revelation and one of the most interesting labels in noisy adventures: 3.1.G.

It will be called ‘The Fascist Brothel’ and this song makes me pretty curious about it.

The Plot will also contribute to 3.1.G.’s next tribute compilation – it goes out to BIRTHDAY PARTY and reading which bands will contribute makes me sooooo looking forward to this:

I put up some Nomeansno live pictures of their show in Nürnberg on the 27th and I have to say that they still are one of the catchiest and most charming live bands ever. They conjured up big smiles on everyone’s faces and played an awesome energetic show, joking between the songs, and looking like they really really had lotsa fun themselves.
