Now we're talking! World Cup moments recreated in Lego:- Green's moment of shame Mexico score - gets good from 1:15 So, not exactly rivetting so far, but that's usually the way with most of the first group games. Samba party tonight though as North Korea get a mauling.

Where would we be without a world cup wall chart? All part of the World Cup mythology since the age of about 8.

Probably UK only: http://www.itv.com/channels/itv1/ Pretty certain BBC coverage for their games is restricted.

BBC not covering this first game (SA v Mexico), so watching the text only commentary updates on my PC whilst looking over someone else's shoulder to see the screen of someone who is 'authorised' to watch ITV on the internet. These made me laugh:- Was not really looking forward to it beforehand, but now it's started I may get caught up in the atmosphere. Edit: Now pictures on my desktop. Result!

"Holy Toledo" indeed, as JT goes to Spain for some solo shows too. Hence solving the riddle of the lone UK show in the middle of nothing else Wilco-related. Good that he's allowed a few days to get there after London. What with the Icelandic volcano situation being off and on, a ferry to Santander might be the best option. This might come in handy down there, apparently:- Batman is El Murcielago Bruce Wayne is Bruno Diaz Dick Grayson is Ricardo Tapia The Joker is El Guason Catwoman is Gatubela Batgirl is Batichica Gordon is Fierro The Riddler is El Acertijo Mr Freeze is Capitan

Chapter 27 - No and not really interested in that event/era. The Hours and Times - Am aware of it but have not seen it. Though I am interested in Lennon (one of the only a handful musicians whose biog I actually care to investigate) due to his diverse and contradictory character(s) and this is an intriguing incident, I'm not sure if I'm prepared to sit through an entirely fictionalised guess at what might have gone on i.e. whatever sort of themes and attitudes the film is exploring would best be done in a 'proper' work of fiction not playing on a 'Beatles connection'. However, as I sort-of me

Haven't seen any mention of this. Has it made it over the pond yet? http://www.nowhereboy.co.uk/ http://www.metro.co.uk/metrolife/825509-nowhere-boy-is-a-poignant-ballad-of-john-lennon-and-his-mum Saw it recently without too many expectations and enjoyed it in a quietly nostalgic kind of way - both as a Beatles fan and someone who misses the simpler musical times of yore (though I don't go back quite that far).

You will be on a trip from Gotham City Paul? And BatGirl/CatWoman - who cares?

Sounds like you're buggered.

I wouldn't recommend taking anything that size up the Arsenal.

I see - trouble with the BatCopter eh?

“Holy Toledo!” Union Chapel Wed 30th Jun 7:00 pm Jeff Tweedy £22.50 adv + booking fee http://www.unionchapel.org.uk/events.php Great venue - have a soft spot for it since Jonathan Richman visited No other details. Just spotted via some idle venue checking and although I did think twice about not posting until I had bought a ticket (no idea when they might be available), altruism won out (though I might have to resort to violence if I don't get a pew near the front). Nice bit of news on a slow day. I just checked the Wilco tour schedule and it does seem to be stuck on its own - not

Not bad I thought for an intro episode. I had grown tired of the previous Doctor's hyperactive whining and he had become too one-dimensionally 'whacky' for me. This one seems to have more variation - calmer and serious at times. A few nice little jokes - the 'I thought you were a nurse', 'delete your browser history' for the adults etc. Hopefully Moffat, while having to stick with the remit of targetting 12 year olds, will keep enough depth in to keep the adults happy.

Listened to the Haiti fund raising London recording last night. At one point JT mantions Queen, Anti-Nowhere League, and Cron Gen. I thought where have I heard the name Cron Gen before? Then I remember I worked with a guy in that band and people here are still in touch with him. He wasn't one of the original members - as a database administrator (I'll leave his anonymity intact) his personality is far from what you'd expect from a punk, so maybe that explains it. The band leader Glynn "Baxter" Barber is his best mate though (but apparently an arse who keeps falling out with each band member

Woooo. The big question is - what is Craig Ferguson doing hosting late night US TV? Last I knew was this:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Xn6nMZ-CAU - which in it's fly on the wall documentary style (though that peters out near the end) pre-empted The Office. Also, in Scots now mostly in the US, this was a funny little series sadly missed:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnReqwF9YAI

Now that's a nice feel good story. Good luck with all that!

Oh the irony ... U2 building walls in Berlin

Edit - sorry was writing thi sas the other thread was started simultaneously. Please delete. P.S. When I say writing, I mean gazing at pictures of Julie Christie

For starters: Mid September Wilco will be in Dorset, UK. http://www.endoftheroadfestival.com/ http://www.endoftheroadfestival.com/artists/wilco/ Ah, lovely dorset ... On past evidence, maybe there'll be a show in the madding crowd of London too, and no doubt time for a bit of scrumpy and western also.

On one condition - time to pop the question to Emmylou at the Neil Young benefit

^ Those are really really good (spot the English major?) Seems like a past age On first hearing Mermaid Ave T'was the start for me

Setlist has one word Three guitars in unison Impossible Eh?
