Dean & Britta week I’m pretty sure that all the promo pictures for Back Numbers have been inspired by similar photos from the past – the only one I recognise for certain is this one from Antonioni’s (over-rated) style (and precious little else) flick Blow Up If anyone recognises any of the others (there’re quite [...]
Dean & Britta week Dean & Britta @ Luna Lounge(originally uploaded by tammylo) I was looking for pictures of Britta wearing those knee high boots she seems to wear quite often – most notably in all the promo shots for Back Numbers. But then I came across this sweet picture of Britta wearing some sweet [...]
Damon_and_Naomi(originally uploaded by PtolemyPhil) …and what could be more sensible than a pair of wellies, under appropriate circumstances of course… No.3 Naomi Yang in her green wellies.
It’s been (almost) two and a half years since I last saw Luna – I miss them – and since about 1989 there haven’t been too many gaps that long when I haven’t seen Dean Wareham on a London stage either as part of Galaxie 500 or Luna. So I am very excited to hear [...]

I love when things I love like comics and music overlap so seeing this in Drawn and Quarterly or a Galaxy [sic] 500 poster in Craig Thompson’s “Blankets” will always give me a buzz (sad huh?).
A Head Full of Wishes has been my (internet) pride and joy for eleven years now but the “original” and “exclusive” content has been pretty limited so I’m quite proud of having Q&A interviews with all the former members of Luna showing up over the next few weeks – first up is Britta talking about [...]
