Envious


You shouldn't be jealous of your kids, but I am slightly at the moment :(
My son who's currently in Cornwall met and had a chat with Mr Aphex Twin (Richard D James), luckily over the years I'd given him enough Aphex Twin knowledge to have a decent conversation with the bloke, so at least he knows I exist and am a fan :)
Son's comment on the meeting "I think you'd like him in person, really down to earth, even if his videos are crazy".

Sounds Like ...

Many years ago I used to park in a car park with a large bit of graffiti on one of the walls saying "Angela Rippon's Bum", at the time it just made me laugh and I only found out that it was the name of a local punk/skinhead/Oi band later on! my only excuse being there were a hell of a lot of new bands around at the time and after leaving school I didn't spend much time in Tilbury.
I managed to find some of their stuff a while back and was listening to the track "Living in England" and the music reminds me a lot of the best bit of "Windowlicker" by Aphex Twin.
