London can be a crazy place.
Great that we've got TV coverage this time. The response to our performance in 2006 really pushed for that. Yeah.... "London Undersound" comes out on October 13th, Electric Proms the 24th and then a full scale uk and European tour ( ). Feels exciting here in the city.
But then again.....
London can be a crazy place.
Today I'm hearing all this stuff on the news about the inquest over the shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes and I feel.... well.... Pretty sick really. I mean, how does it work that a totally innocent man gets shot seven times in the head by the police and they call it "an accident" on TV? Today the judge said the inquest was a fact-finding exercise and "not a forum to determine culpability or compensation, still less to dispense punishment".
Why not?
How come chief constable Ian Blair didn't resign over that? What happened to honour? Humanity? An innocent man got blown away on his watch....
I just don't get it. Never will...
I'm working on the music for a Brazilian film about Jean Charles tomorrow and the album starts with a track referencing him....
If he can't get any justice I just hope he gets remembered.
