London day 3



































London day 2





London day 1

I'm back from London since Tuesday night and I'm missing it already. It was the third time I was in this ultimate favourite city of mine and - thanks to my lovely host Jonathan who's taken care of me really well - I got to see more than the Tower Bridge.

Here are some pictures I took during my stay.

London Calling

Just got back from Paul Weller, and he was pretty much amazing. But more on that later, now I have to do some final packings before heading off to London very early tomorrow morning. See you!

Bang bang, you're dead

Sad news got to me today. Dirty Pretty Things (Carl BarĂ¢t post-Libertines band) have broken up. I never was as much into them as I was/am into The Libs, but nevertheless - I really liked them, especially the first album. Songs like 'Gin and Milk', 'You Fucking Love It' and 'The Enemy' will stay favourites of mine forever.

Then again, the second album was somewhat disappointing after that really great debut, and I like to be positive and think that the new projects the guys - and especially Carl - will get involved with, will raise their music again to its usual high level.

In their statement on the break-up, DPT have made clear that those new projects won't include a Libertines reunion, but I like to hope that 'no Libertines' doesn't necessarily mean 'no Pete Doherty'. Carl and Pete getting back together is my ultimate dream that I've never ever given up. This was pretty awesome news, for instance.

Anyway, before jumping to conclusions, I'd like to dedicate this post to Dirty Pretty Things and finish with some great music.
