A digital misfit

Today was a work Christmas party (I think theres supposed to be another one later). I’m not keen on these corporate celebratory events at the best of times but when you’ve got a Japanese guy telling jokes in English about the Finns…well, lets just say I didn’t stay all evening.

Still, I did get to pop in to Tower on the way home and pick up an ’80s classics covered by JPunk bands’ CD, a Specials tribute and CD of Green Day covers.

Walking back from there I saw someone trying to bump start a moped, or maybe they were just towing it, I don’t know. Surely this isn’t a particularly safe thing to do?

  1. Covers *of* Green Day, by up and coming JPunk bands(!)

    Ooo, theres a Venuzualan band playing a (I assume spanish or portugeuese) version of the Specials “Ghost Town”….damn why didn’t I think of this before? Buying cheesy tribute albums is not something I do much of back home, but it seems its the way to go here.

    • Of course…heres some tracks to look forward to:

      You can’t hurry love – stompin bird
      Take on me – Spoiller
      Uptown girl – Spider Cabinets
      Heaven is a place on earth – Good 4 Nothing
      Video killed the radio star – Remind
