Hell’s teeth in the dentist chair, was this a sod of a show to pre-produce! Here’s why…
Last week, when playing at The Point in this here Cardiff, the delicious Ida Maria & the delightful V.V. Brown allowed one half of & Mr. Fisk into their company & minds for 20minutes or so each. Whereas one half of had the relative luxury, & fairly quiet locale, of V.V. Brown’s very plush tour van to gently float questions in her direction, Mr. Fisk decided the best place to interview Ida Maria was in the glass walled viewing gallery directly above the stage. Which was being sound checked for the evening’s gig.

What a wery wobbly show. Sound quality is always an issue on this listing ship, but this week we think we may have wobbled a little too far over the red line. But, in the words of Isambard Kingdom Brunel: ah, fuck it.
To the Batmobile!

This week, you lucky lucky lucky bastards, we have a wonderful interview with the delicious Anni Rossi all for you. The show was wrapped up in ½DC & Fisk’s usual nonsense, but with an added sprinkle of glitter in the shape of a competition to win a signed copy of Ms Rossi’s brand new EP AFTON - think of it as a fore-taster to her album of the very same name, & a copy of her 2007 self-release LP Scandia.

O Yes. Mr. Bob himself. Man-handled by Mr. Fisk himself.
Not much else we can say, really, about this week’s show. Except for Mr. Fisk ’s secret local band lead singer crush, his acceptance of a time traveling trip back to the mid-90s, & news of his forthcoming publishing venture. Quite a packed info-bomb for you, then, kids, eh?

Eh? Is it?
Finally, after a loo-oong week of pissing about with bad connections & terrible wi-fi in Washington DC, we are finally able to bring you the show from last Wednesday. *phew*, we believe, is the Latin phrase.

Hello & howdy & welcome to this week’s post-amble.
Cripes! This ol’ show was an odd one, eh? Lots of ramble about lost cats, trips to the states, giddy giggling, mildly offensive un-PCness; the whole TWR gambit, then.
For this outing we included: V.V. Brown, Ruth Minnikin, Lost In Trees, Pearl & The Puppets, The Mummers, Bill Callahan & the everso ever present many, many more. Bloody excellent, so the choices were.

God in Heaven.
Been a week, has it, yes? Absolutely. Not only has one half of been bed-bound with a recurring intestinal nasty (married, he is, to the porcelain telephone), but the other half of has somehow been allowed to become a father (only time will tell as to whether he’s allowed to keep it) AND Mr. Fisk has witnessed the end of the world via a couple of meat pies & a mad professor. You may be sat there, smiling, thinking oh, you scamps - what japes you have, but listen, bub, you want to try living with it for a week.

In the words of the other half of: Brilliant. Fucking Brilliant.
He popped into the DCHQ studio this week to pre-record that there show below as one of his final acts of freedom before Mrs Mouse spat out their co-created little lady, the Simpsons-inspired, Maggie.
