Oh I adore Goya.

Did you see the Goya sketches altered in this very way by Jake and Dinos Chapman a few years back for their Insult To Injury exhibit for the Turner prize? Brilliant stuff.

You might be right alexv...though the St Anthony in the desert as a monastic goes that he's tempted by the phantoms of women by Lucifer - why not men as well in a modern interpretation. I think this portrays his will and strength much better than any other version (though I do like Dali's a lot). Ju...

Good stuff...it's great to see the good reception the BBC got for the Beethoven project. These pieces should be free to download forever more - they should belong to everyone. I really like Bach's Mein Herze Schwimmt In Blut recitative opening Cantata no.199...if they played cantatas or passions lik...

He made those flattering comments about Real, and how he adored them as a kid...which seemed a bit like a 'come and get me'. At the start of the season I thought his squad looked a lot stronger than it has turned out to be - I don't think that new stadium necessarily equals more money for him to spe...

I really like this 'Temptation of St Anthony' by Peter Howson - a Scottish artist who deals with working class masculinity and religion in a lot of his paintings.

I was at OT for the Benfica game, and was impressed by them...they're a Liverpool style team, so I wouldn't be surprised at an upset there. I really liked Geovanni for them...some player. They were unlucky in that game. I agree with Jacko though, Real, Chelsea and Villareal to progress. Anyone else ...

Yeah he posted a 'grossout' picture of a deformed sex offender...which, quite rightly, doesn't really belong on an arts forum.
Oh well.

Bathtime in clerkenwell.....

shipping...postage...even VAT...it's just someone in an office coming up with numbers...somewhat like the job I do.

Hey! ouch...come on, this is a funny, music related issue..not internet dog mess like wot he posted.

RE: chavs...interesting. Apparently in Northern Ireland they call them spides due to the similarities between shellsuits and spiderman's costume.

I was perusing The Scottish Sun (yes, our neds read a different paper to their close cousins, the chavs) today and my eyes were assaulted by an article tarnishing the good name of none other than Shakin Stevens! Shakin' Stevens - for those of you not in the know, he is a Welsh glam rock'n'roller fro...

You'd be surprised at how flexible those are though...if you moan. Amazon US use DHL to ship overseas I think, and they charge a set rate per volume and weight, excluding any insurance (which I doubt they take up)...after that (which isn't that much) they can charge whatever they feel.

Just click on the photo you want to post from the web...has to be on another site....open the properties, copy the URL...past it into the message body here, then select it and click Img.

Do you think Sufjan Stevens is going to complete his 50 states project? Be a very groovy old man when he finishes!

The Brave And The Bold by Bonnie Prince Billy & Tortoise...really good, a covers album including versions of Springsteen, Richard Thompson and Elton John!

Also, just discovered a Canadian band called Fly Pan Am...their self-titled debut is ace!

Hey, I bet the fact that she's the Apple Download Of The Week TM was the icing on the cake!

Hey...the Fire Engines were great...I only really gave Josef K a proper listen this year, but have always been a fan of most of the postcard stuff... Have you heard Candyskin? Brilliant track. Aztec Camera (on Postcard) would be a great band to listen to, if you haven't already, MissBA, cos Roddy Fr...

RIP....one of the all time great comics, and a pioneer for black comedians.

I'm like a rolling stone...angry, lovely and desperate.

Today I learned how to make gingerbread

My friend gave me this....and it's BRILLIANT
