THX GVG
To celebrate the holidays, Gail and I jammed in the studio with our new fake band THX GVG, but our session was short-lived. We posed for the above publicity shot, but we just couldn’t get our first single off the ground.
The song was called ”(Hpy) Thanksgiving.” The lyrics went:
Hpy (Hpy Hpy Hpy)
I can’t afford an A or a P
This is not the holiday for me
Because it’s all about giving
I’m not going to stop living
If I don’t give thanks on this day
I’ve got too much to say
So I’ll say it every day
And not just wait for Thanksgiving.
(Hpy, Hpy, Hpy)
{Repeat to fade}
It might not have been a hit, but it’s surely the way I feel. Who knows, maybe 2010 will see a reunion of Las Mierdas? Stay tuned.
And if you celebrate this ghastly holiday, please be careful, don’t stuff yourselves with too much garbage and have a happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone, and please remember – there’s plenty of reasons to be thankful every day!

Fish and Flower.
I call this one, “Fish and Flower.” Please note: No fish or flowers were hurt for the making of this lovely photo.

So Red the Rose by Arcadia
Amazing news for Duran Duran fans! The 1985 side project, Arcadia (featuring Nick Rhodes, Roger Taylor and Simon LeBon) is getting the deluxe reissue treatment! Duranduran.com has just confirmed this rumour that’s been floating around for a few weeks now. After the jump read the delicious tracklist for the So Red The Rose album, bonus tracks and DVD and find out the release dates. There is no word if this reissue will contain a neat book as well to showcase the really cool artwork. I don’t know about you, but I am so excited!!!!
