A Fucking Fox!



It is Wednesday. Of that there is no doubt. And Wednesday being Wednesday, positioned firmly and without compromise in the middle of the week, it is officially The Day Of Despair. The weekend is gone, and the next one is far far away.

And rather than try and brighten the mood, let us wallow in self pity, just because we can. Wednesday can force itself upon us, but we don't have to like it by Christ.

The perfect accompaniment for Wednesday is undoubtedly Chips For The Poor, Invisible Spies and Sheffield's favourite son. Big claim, yay, but whilst Jarvis paints a romantic picture of the city, Chips For The Poor gets right on it, unflinchingly telling it like it really is. Amen.

In fact, I'm reckoning there's nowt that Chips For The Poor would like more, than imbibing some horrifically naughty speed, and spending an evening in the company of the nation's finest, in a pub-built-into-an-estate, playing 'winner keeps eyes' on the darts.

LSD Who Said That? is a nightmare nursery rhyme reeling off a few of his favourite things, and Across The Car Park is his update of Revolution 9, done Chips style and teng. Brrrp.

Chips For The Poor brings the live experience to various salubrious nightspots this month including 93 Feet East on the 25th of May and the London Callin night at the 12 Bar Club on the 28th of May, and you can buy the recordings of his mind's spurtings here.

Fuck off Wednesday.
