Heard some tracks off the new album on the radio. It's-uh good-uh.

I always wished I had a big brother when I was growing up.
Not so sure now.

Great read though, thanks!

My favourite bit so far: "One guest at a time -- that's my philosophy. You don't want your house turning into a hippy commune."

Yes, I love that bit! "I only have three chairs in the house, one for the wife, one for me, and one for a guest."

And this too: "'I've always tried to dress smart. It's important. There's no need to look like a demick: Primark sells some all right stuff at a fair price. Go and shop there; you don't want to be walking around like an urban scarecrow."

Twenty years later, I find out what the name of London, Ontario's finest punk band, The Demics, means. Thanks MES.
