covenant ticket arrived today - which is cutting it a bit close. tomorrow gig, then friday up to sheffield for batfink!

started reading the Kalevala (in English translation), which has been kindly lent to me by cyniborg.

this is the Finnish "national epic", which when read in 1911/1912 by a kid called Ronald from the fringes of Birmingham, caused him to say "we've got to get ourselves one of these" and then a few years later to write one, in some cases just lifting things wholesale (compare Túrin with Kullervo.) i started to write a filk about Túrin once, which is not quite of the same level of inspiration, but hey.

I will be wearing very can't be arsed clothes, I think. There wil be blackness, but that's probably it.

My most easily identifiable accessory will be a 6'6" bloke with long blonde hair. ;)

There, that should do it. :) What time are you thinking of going, do you know? I'm probably only going to stay an hourish (do you feel honoured...if you weren't going it would be Angel DVDs and a sofa tonight!), so it would be good to, you know, coincide at some point. :)
