"A freudian slip is when you say one thing instead of your mother"

We did a session for Cormac Battle on Rte 2fm the day before yesterday. For only the second time ever we did a cover! We had a shot at "Your Woman" by Whitetown. Hopefully you approve when you hear it. The show goes out February 1st at 8pm. We also did versions of Megaphone Man and Keep The Noise Down. Also, just wanna let you know the Spring tour is almost ready to be announced....one or two bits to be tied up but watch the main news page over the next couple days.

MJEX are now on Twitter by the way. Click here

I watched the movie Sideways last night again. It's really funny...I love wine snobs! Paul Giamatti is the man and I love his mate - the guy Thomas Haden Church plays. Was meant to go see The Wrestler but I'm smashed. I'm reading more Kurt Vonnegut. Hocus Pocus is the book. 52 pages in....really good so far. I 've started getting trumpet lessons from one of the guys who played on FTWG, Bill Blackmore. It's not an easy instrument. Really trying to get into a pattern of consistent songwriting again. A few bits are coming together nicely and we're beginning to semi get on the ball with what we wanna do next

The song I am listening to right now is....

TRACK OF THE DAY - JAMES CARR - YOU GOT MY MIND MESSED UP

Megaphone Man Video

Here's the new video for MEGAPHONE MAN. It was shot in an office and a warehouse owned by Italian hippies. Once again the amazing director Davey Sexton did this one. We reckon it's our best one yet. The shoot was done at the beginning of the month over a Friday evening and Saturday day. All the props you see in the video were just lying around in this warehouse. The minute we saw them we knew they were perfect for the video. Makeup was done by Gemma Horan who is highly highly recommended. The office scenes were shot in an office Davey uses. Mega Mega thanks to Lotus films and all the crew who worked on the video throughout. You did an amazing job with everything. The video should be on Irish tv ovr the coming days and weeks and months. Enjoy the track of the day, mj
