So what, exactly, is shocking about this particular news article, I hear you ask? Well, nothing really. But what is shocking is that while I type it up, the Nicky Wire solo record is being played on the other side of the office. It's about as brilliant, so far, as being attacked by seagulls. I.e., not fucking very.
But anyway, Jamie T, he of guitar and voice and stuff fame, is to tour his way across the country oh my God Nicky Wire can not sing... for the sake of ears everywhere someone stop this coming out...
Where were we? Oh, dates...
