A sort of homecoming...

Going to Norway is always kinda weird. Though I've never lived there, it feels like coming home when I see Oslo. And P4 played DeLillos twice during the weekend, so here's a video:


And nice weekend, btw. Snow, hanging out, drinking beer (and having made a rather cool playlist for the bus trip: Bakers At Dawn, Chromatics, Beach House and Fireflies / this one is defo a song for driving):

Lower than lofi, but higher

Yeah! Very Norwegian, very arty, and yes, lower than lofi, but higher. And speaking of which, I'm off to Norway on Friday. Dad's turning 60, hanging out in Rånåsfoss, dinner in Oslo, and then back on Sunday.

Yeah, yeah...

It's kinda funny, if you ask me. I mean, I'm all for Obama and all that, he's pretty goddamn cool at rhetoric (though I thought his inaugural address was a bit long) and he's defo much cooler than Bush / Hillary / Whatever. But my Danish Facebook friends going "Go Obama", "I love you Obama" or "Yes we can" or whatever, I don't get. I mean, they wouldn't in a million years have voted for the dude, if he entered the Danish elections!? Oh, well, who cares. And speaking of rhetoric, isn't it strange that we (for like a million years) have been so keen on this repeating thing (3 is always best)? Here's Obama:
For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.
For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.

For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sahn.

Cicero would've done the same thing (but then again; who cares, here's a vid for Jpg-manja).

How low can you go...

Muahahaha. I've just bought a bass! Burns Marquee Green Sunburst. How cool is that. Now I'm off to Rust! And a video:

Screw winter...

I'm down with a cold. But managed to go this children/parents thing with my son's class (which was rather nice). Now, I'm just tired, while my son is watching "Charlie's Angels 2"!? Which to my astonishment isn't all that bad. But now sleeeeeeeep. And a video (P3 played Dinosaur Jr. today, wtf!?):

Not this one, but still.

Ever so lovely...

Oooooh mama. New Year's was perfect, spent 6 hours making French fries, had some wine, Swedish glögg, the company was super and the party great too. And the Mikkel and I spent the 1st cleaning up and drinking beer at Plenum and Osborne's (cool bartender at Plenum kept playing nice music which the other, not so cool, bartender kept turning down, Mazzy Star for instance):



And yesterday we went dancing, Mikkel, Ebbe, Jpg-manja and I. The great Vesterbro tour, Ebbe's studio, bars, Kebabistan, more bars, taxis and the whole lot. Today I spent an hour trying to get on the internet, until I discovered that I was on the wireless and for some reason couldn't use my cable!? Now I need a bed (but there's Columbo on the telly, so might go for that one in stead).
