I am back from London. It has been a long, tiring and very fun day. Along the way I got to see a great gig, catch up with some good friends, and finally use AudioBoo for the purpose for which it is so well suited – on the spot micro interviews. For those of you who do not follow me on Twitter, we have:
- Neil Gaiman, talking about oiling pigs with Jonathan Ross;
- Amanda Fucking Palmer, talking about doing gigs in space; and
- Roz Kaveney, doing a micro-review of the EvelynEvelyn gig from last night
Check back through the Twitter feed for the whole thing, complete with chickens, elephants and news of Amanda’s forthcoming album.
Amanda and Jason have managed to get the webcast to work from Bush Hall, and are live right now.
Check back with me on Wednesday night when I’ll be tweeting live from the Clarke Award ceremony (or at least around it – I gather the room we’ll be in is a wi-fi and cell dead spot).
I really need to move to London. I’m missing all the fun!
Oiling PIGS Indeed !
HA !! Young Neil ‘Fucking ‘ Gaiman !!! and many more such Exclamations !!! It is Clear to me that your Involvement with the Gorey/Adams Family- ness of Over There has Contaminated your Micheal Innes generated ENGLISH/Scottish Lit purity ….

And YET it might not be all your own fault .. “You’ve none of you had anything stolen from you recently? ” he asked “. Anything that could have been taken to a witch or sorcerer ? “
