We went to ex Stone Roses hero John Squire's new solo show and reflected longingly over his beautiful geometric paintings representing Lindsey Lohan, Woody Allen and of course Gaga. With a bagel soon in hand and a skip in our steps we rolled out to a charity night at the Working Mans Club ft music by The Waylayers (White Lies meets Foals -lineup right) and not forgetting Dr Mix. His concept being that you place your greatest fear in his hands and he returns to you with a mix-tape to cure your anxiety, (playlist left). Without the want to seem so sombre on the topic of the old L word it was relevant as we'd just discussed how Marilyn Monroe never found it and.....never.....had an orgasm. So there I was a vision a little less graceful than Mazza her bloody-self asking a complete stranger to heal my darkest fear. So yes, self reflection and fear seeking may all seem a bundle of annoyance to many but in this instance it was kinda ok I think. Kinda ok to receive a shiny new disc of understanding. No more biography shIt for a while mind.
