I went for a walk with my son. It was a lovely day. I took my iPod. We recorded a long overdue podcast while encountering fickle anthropods and a big black dog of death.

Tracks played: R.I.P Burn Face (CocoRosie), A Bar In Amsterdam (Katzenjammer), Someday We May Forget This Ever Happened (Letters), Certainty (D+), Roll The Drums (Tone Idle), Crooked (Kristin Hersh), Pangea (Twig Palace), Le Retour (O Paon), Pope On A Tram (Gustav Bertha / Gordon Bell), Words (Jon Lemmon), The Quickening (The Douglas Firs)

Ok, I got the band / song name muddled up on Twig Palace / Pangea & Le Retour / O Paon but can I blame my iPod? No? Ok then. Sorry.
