DAF. Reformed, reunited, back together again. For tonight this is the last of my Pop/Punk links. Gabi was a friend of mine, when he was still in Düsseldorf. Their first single is called "Der Sheriff", Untertitel: "Ein anti-amerikanisches Lied". (Spiegel). The official website is here. And as Gabi says in the video: "Wenn es ein Symbol gibt für Terror, Unterdrückung, Folter und Mord, dann ist das die Flagge der USA." Sorry, guys. He's right. 7:43:30 PM     |

On Returning. More Wire. Dammit, they're GOOD! Nice linkpage with a live video (Top link). Real Player as usual. 5:10:43 PM     |

More Pop. Jennifer Jeffery has an impressive portfolio of live concert pictures. And while I'm at it, may I also recommend my friend Jutta Brandt again? You will find weird fellows like LaMonte Young and Terry Riley on her website. Wonderful black and white photography. 4:08:03 PM     |

Dotdash. On the border there's movement. 12XU. It's a lowdown. Reuters. I am the fly. Map Ref.41N 93W. Fits nicely with the Punk links below. Here's Wire. 2:12:42 PM     |

Palermo Catacombs. Creepy. "Welcome! This is a photographic trip to the Capuchins' Catacombs located in Palermo, Italy. There are thousands of corpses lined on the walls like paintings." Thanks, Reimund! 1:49:39 PM     |

Looking through Gary Gilmour's Eyes. Hate and War. Whole Wide World (with Ian Dury on drums!). And more. Old Punk videos at The Bunker. Have fun. "link" 12:46:16 PM     |

Bela Lugosi's dead. Yes, that's indeed Pete Murphy on the left. Hundreds, no, thousands of Punk and New Wave photos are on Phillipe Carly's website. Fantastic. (Siouxie and the Banshees: 808 pictures!) 12:27:39 PM     |

Toys, toys, toys! The most bizarre action figures are at Kidrobot. Great stuff. Via Whykay's. 12:02:02 PM     |

Bush. Being completely fed up with The President's Speech, which is being broadcasted live on German Telly, I'm just doing a Dietmar Schönherr ("Der Präsident ist ein .... ") Good Night. 2:42:47 AM     |

Rumour. As I've just heard from a trustworthy source, (This is a secret of course) British Troops have been given the order to attack Iraq in about 2 weeks time. How great. Shall we celebrate now? Guys, this is for real. I'm scared. Bastards! 12:12:01 AM     |
