TV Model / March 1 2008
I keep forgetting things; it must be my age. Perhaps I’m going through the memorypause.
It completely slipped my mind that everybody’s favourite transvestite pop-punker Nelson Galaxy is now officially a model. I wish I had remembered to tell you this earlier because I am very proud of him for taking this unexpected left turn in [...]
Lipgloss Weekend / August 24 2007
All the decks have been cleared in the studio ready for Nelson’s arrival later today. He will be here until Tuesday. We are due to begin work on his first full-length album. I shall be producing it, whilst drummer Graham Boffey, trumpeter Ash Morgan and sax-god Paul Varga, my Enormous cohorts, will also be lending [...]
Lollipop Lollipop / May 2 2007
Nelson Galaxy and I were in San Diego yesterday.
Nelson is launching a new range of lollipops aimed at the musical sweet-toothed transvestite market and he had a meeting with some Californian venture capitalists who are interested in investing in his fruity idea. He took me along for moral support. He was showing off a little, [...]
Dreamboat / April 6 2007
Last night I dreamed I was marooned at sea in a small boat. With me were Nelson Galaxy - Big Arena Records’ glamorous and angst-ridden transvestite songwriter, my dog Audrey and Brad Pitt.
We were in the Iranian Ocean and I remember feeling very queasy; it was like being drunk, when the ground becomes variable. Audrey [...]
Drag Racing / February 16 2007
It was my birthday yesterday, and this morning, I am ashamed to say, I am decidedly overhung.
I was joined early in the evening by my good friend (and nascent transvestite pop star) Nelson Galaxy, who brought with him several bottles of frosty champagne, a crate of cold Budweiser and a brace of Beaujolais Nouveaux, all [...]
After Hours / January 12 2007
I’m going to keep y’all informed on the progress of the Nelson Galaxy acoustic album that we’ve been recording.
Provisionally titled After Hours, it is mostly a collection of ‘unplugged’ bare-bones tracks with Nelson and me playing acoustic guitar and singing, with Graham (Boffey) – the drummer from Enormous – shaking his famous tambourine as [...]
So Long At The Fair / January 11 2007
Nelson and I have been hard at work recording the Nelson Galaxy acoustic album over the holiday period.
We’ve been locked in the studio growing increasingly pale and wan whilst sweating over a hot mixing-desk.
We had plenty of dry sherry and mince-pies at Christmas but were too busy to open any presents or to wrap up [...]
How To Cure A Hangover / December 15 2006
I was awoken at 6:30 this morning by someone banging stridently on the front door.
While Audrey barked hysterically, I opened the bedroom window to see the unmistakable outline of Nelson Galaxy down there in the gloom of the rainy dawn. Illuminated by the streetlights’ sodium glare, he was hopping around impatiently on what looked [...]
