THOM YORKE & ADAM AT LATITUDE
Dear Bloglodytes,
First of all, thanks for all the messages we received for our first show back after the summer. Much appreciated as usual.
Second of all, apparently there's currently someone pretending to be me on Twitter. Just to be clear I am not part of any social networking sites. The only posting I do online is for this blog and on my own and apart from the odd thing for the ´óÏó´«Ã½ comedy site, that's it so please don't give anyone else claiming to be me a look, unless they're doing a better job of being me than I am, which so far has not been the case in my humble opinion.
Thirdly and as promised, here is the video of the brief chat I had at Latitude with Thom Yorke about new stage names he might like to use. The person you can hear talking off camera is Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich who was filming. You have to listen quite hard but he reveals that 'Mr T' is what he calls Thom in the studio, though Thom points out that that's "On your good days". I very much hope that from now on 'T.Homme' will be the standard form of address for Thom in the studio.
Love Dr 'Real' Buckles

Adam never ceases to amaze me with his ability to present really weak material in an entertaining way.

I haven't seen the fake Adam Buxton stuff on Twitter but gather that the person responsible is putting out some offensive material - quite apart from impersonating you this is disgusting behaviour.
Why anyone would want to target you (or Joe) in this way is beyond me. I find the two of you to be refreshingly decent chaps who have a unique blend of wit, intelligence, silliness and charm.

Homophone -> Thomophone -> Thomophonic ->
Thomophonic Spree!
whinger_assassin, Adam revels in his weak material overloaded with melodramatic emotional investment. I think he loves and hates all of his own material and likes to share it with the world in guise of stupidity, intensity and hints of genuine fragility. It's why we warm to him so.

I came on here for this video yesterday and all I got was a yucky tic video! You're such a tic tease *chortle snort*
P.s I wish I could go to LIVEstock 2009, as it's on my birthday but unfortunately I live too far away. Boo *beeping* hoo!

I think someone in that video may have been sampling the recreational pharmaceuticals!

Looks suspiciously like amusingly shaped sunglasses.

Hang on, didn't you wear those in the TV series?! BOL!

Is there any chance of putting Joe's massage music on the blog as a download?

I'd like to see/hear an interview of David Bowie, conducted by Boggins the dog. Please, Adam and Joe, make this real.
