Arctic Monkeys
3 good days in a row, a rare thing not unrelated to 3 days off work I'm sure.
Day 1, Sunday 22/01/06: After last weeks' chart high of 15, Chav Song climbs 6 places to 9 and into the top ten. You've all heard it so no recording to download this week but if you're suffering symptoms of withdrawal, you can feed your habit here. This should mean a good deal more airplay and if the song is taken in the right way, a safer experience when hanging around shopping centres might be enjoyed by all. If you've ever felt threatened by society and it's 'variety' please follow this link to help keep our streets safe...innit.
Day 2, Monday 23/01/06: My birthday. I have now joined my friends at the Limited Edition in our rapid approach towards maturity. As you can see by these photos we're all turning into fine young men fully justifying the greater responsibilty our years of wisdom have brought us. For the record, I am still in posession of the photography from the early years of our musical 'air' development although have no immediate plans to share these celluloid moments with the wider population.
Day 3, Tuesday 24/01/06: First gig of the year. Lovely little venue in Greenwich, managed to fill the room with fans of The MüVs to whom I'm more grateful for making the trip on the coldest London night I can remember than it is fitting to try and capture in words here. Thank you, you were wonderful. There is a highlights video here for anyone who couldn't make it, and anouncements of forthcoming tour dates here. Unfortunatley, being the end of a very long January, most of the locals didn't step out of their doors so the crowd was far from capacity. I'm content enough however in the knowledge that not so long ago, Arctic Monkeys were playing to crowds of 10 and now look at 'em go! Haven't got the album yet and would welcome some readers reviews (post a comment).

at time of press we're at number 4...need I say more.
