What, as ‘they’ say, Ho!
About a month ago ½DC + TWoTH trundled over to Bristol, England, for the weekend to see live & interview Dan Michaelson (of The Coastguards + Absentee). We set ourselves up in a swanky river facing hotel, spent the afternoon boozing it up on the deck of the Thekla ship venue, before catching up with a very tour-knackered Dan to knock off said interview for t’show.

Hello You.
½DC here. Breathing. Alive. & still a dreadful pain in the ass.
This week’s show, which makes no mention wse of the American field bug-related sucker punch, is an effing corker. Musically it = *phew*. Conversationally, well, erm, *meh*. But, musically…

Hello everyone, TWoTH here.
I’m writing this week’s post because DC is really quite ill at the moment. This will also explain why everything (Facebook/Myspace/TWRHQ/WOXY/Twitter) hasn’t been updated with news of this week’s coming show. This is a long story, so go for a wee before we begin…

iya.
This week’s clattering ridiculum includes, as you might have gathered from the above promo eye candy, a very special (some say ‘as in olympics’, some say ‘as in D.A.R.Y.L.‘) guest in the DCHQ studio in the shape & form of one Mr. Lloyd Robson. Who hell he? Well, he hell who is a rather respected Welsh poet, novelist, journalist, photograffiti artist & general bon vivant on the media/literary/arts scene.
He’s recently published (via Parthian) the excellent (& this isn’t bias because we know him quite well, it truly is thoroughly excellent) gonzo-style journal/autobiographical trawl through the pre-Hollywood history of Robert Mitchum, entitled Oh Dad! A Search for Robert Mitchum.

Hello You.
Apologies for the delay in posting this one - I’m currently ensconced in Fredericksburg, VA & the internet connection at the (ahem) Quality Inn, where I am parking my arse for the next week or so, is, in a word, shite. It’s taken me 3 days to upload this week’s show (not to mention transferring next week’s brilliant show to WOXY, which includes a proper proper guest in the studio taking flak from our verbal nonsense). Still, it is genuinely worth the damn bastard wait.

A few months back ½DC + TWoTH bussed up to Birmingham, England to interview 2 of TWR’s very favourite Swedish(-based) lady singer/songwriters: Ane Brun & Jennie Abrahamson.
Both interviews were carried out in not exactly perfect conditions — as soon as the record button was pressed the air conditioning system kicked in, producing this low, moaning background hum, & the off switch was elusive to even the venue owners.
Here we go again…
