So according to our countdown clock, we’ve got 14 days and 10 hours until the official release of Hospital Music.

Since the album’s been streaming on Matthew’s website for the last month or so, we already know what to expect. I’ve never particularly been a fan of the pre-release idea and this is probably why I’m not feeling overly excited about the new release. But it is good, you could even say Avalanche good. I guess I’m just trying to say that the whole “stream the album before it’s released” thing kind of ruined that Christmas morning feeling for me.

My advice to you, if you like the band, just wait it out to the release date rather than having a listen beforehand.

You can read more about Hospital Music on our parent site: Near Fantastica or you can order the album for $12.96.

Okay. You seriously want to get one of these.

Sounds: “IN, “JUMP”, “SWIM”, “COIN”, “OUCH!”, “BIG!”, “START” or “1UP”

It makes sounds from the original Super Mario games on Super Nintendo!

It’s been three days now since I went to The Police Concert at GM Place, it was awesome. It was a pleasure and an honour to watch their first show on the reunion tour. I encourage you all to see them. I wish I’d taped it.

Moving pictures.

I was reading through yesterday’s 24 when I saw a picture of Mr. David Basi (aka Mr. Scandal). One person came to mind, the butler with a foot fetish from Mr. Deeds.
