A Little Something to Shut the Cynical Haters Up...for Now

I find it amazing how the local media and it's pessimistic readers latch on to any negative news, however, when the news is positive it gets scant coverage on page 57 of Happy Knitting Weekly.
Here is an article you won't see on the front page of any newspaper this week:

Fifa ended its three-day inspection tour of South Africa on Wednesday praising the progress made in building the stadiums that will be used for the 2010 Soccer World Cup.

The governing body of world soccer, joined by South African organisers, visited four of the nine host cities to assess the stadiums in Johannesburg, the site of the opening and final match, as well as Cape Town, Durban and Port Elizabeth.

The delegation also received progress reports on accommodation, finance and transport.

"We were able to see signs of huge transformation in the host cities. The task ahead is a big one and we admire the ambition and efforts in the host cities to make 2010 a successful event," said Alain Leiblang, Fifa's head of media.

There have been concerns about the country's high crime rate and poor transport system, as well as the pace of stadium construction.

"We are quite happy that the programme is on track. What we set out to do with this inspection tour, we achieved," local organising committee representative Dennis Mumble said in a statement.

"There are challenges and adjustments that need to be made, but that's the reason for tours such as this, to address those."

The full evaluation report will be presented at a meeting on Tuesday. - Sapa-AP

If Your Mother Only Knew!!

Beatboxing, strange pastime.
There are people, however, that have dedicated substantial portions of their lives to beatfakery and raised it to the level of art .
Case in point, this french chap:




Awesome,but it only serves to remind me of the greatest piece of mouthpiece manipulation of all time, Rahzel's 'If Your Mother Only Knew'.
I still get goosebumps!
Enjoy:



There are versions with video available, none have decent audio though.

Radiohead: Indie Heroes!!

Radiohead have always been a band ahead of their time.
Now, in an unprecedented move, the band, now signed to an independent label, have decided to offer their new album to fans for whatever the fans think it is worth.

This is a move with huge consequences for the industry and possibly politically too.
Major record labels' paranoia about music piracy has been based on the assumption that people would rather steal than buy music. Hence the slogan: "giving away the contents of a record to other people has the same effect as stealing from a story without paying for it" found on EMI records (Radiohead's former parent company.)

The band have set up an online shop where anyone can buy their new album "In Rainbows" for however much they think it is worth. If the notion that between their fans and the band there exists an ideal of collateral and trust, not only will it be a slap in the face of the Capitalist greed that is as evident in the music industry as anywere else, but it might just also make Radiohead the most influential band of our time, a title I believe they have fully deserved ever since "Pablo Honey".
