Hahaha, I have used that joke before, but I don't care.
Anyway, I have some ever-so-marginally exciting news about my blog, and for once it's not me stopping/restarting it. As anyone who's read any of it will know, I'm forever whining about how few people read it etc. To combat that I have come with a genius idea that will hopefully give my blog more of a structure, and thus make me happier to link to it/pimp it out all over the internet.
Basically my local Oxfam music shops is pretty awesome (as demonstrated by the amount of stuff I buy from there, some of which I've documented here). I've decided to every week - maybe more often, I'm not sure - buy something from there and review it on here. It might be something I've wanted for a while, something I've heard good things about, or just something completely random. It'll only cost me about £5 and it all goes to charity so is ultimately going towards a good cause. Of course my usual ramblings will still be present (and I've got plenty planned) but I'm hoping this will give Music Is My Boyfriend more of a "point" and purpose.
Alongside that I'm looking to redesing the site, to make it look a bit fresher and more contemporary. I've asked Seb to do that (he has some pretty good design skills), so hopefully there'll be news on that once his pre-term exams are done. Perhaps I'll change the name as well, but I don't want to change TOO much at once!
Anyway, I'm mildly excited about this and hope to have the first installment of my new idea up soon (this week ideally).

That's an excellent idea. I suggest you practice by reviewing Amarok. I'm pushing that a bit aren't I?
Turns out both the Oldfield things I mentioned yesterday (Irish whiskey caveman singing and loud musical stabs on Amarok) are from the same place, a Mojo article from 1998 which someone has kindly reproduced with only a few typos, here.
