Ok, so it's not that Just A Minute. The Ruffian reign of terror on Radio 4 still only clocks in at 15 seconds and a confused sounding Humphreys namecheck.
The blog title actually refers to the www.filthylittleangels.com compilation of 1 mintue long songs. And would you believe it, it actually looks like it's going to see the light of day! Billy Ruffian open up side 2 with a song about a man who wakes up and decides he's the queen. Lots of other FLAians are on there with the glorious Town Bike and lovely Star Fighter Pilot putting in appearances. I'm also a fan of the song about Jimmy Tractor. It has 19 songs by 19 bands on one 7" slab of vinyl. That's economy right there. Just remember to run it at 33 and a third or it'll seem even more concise.
Thanks to all who came to see us at Tiger Lounge, although we were 40 min late going on I think it sounded as good as we'd ever done at the Lounge and a great time was had by all. Thanks go out to The Rise and Fall of the Rockets for being very polite and nice and cheering me up with a banjo solo. Thanks also go to whoever it was that left the amps on stage. They were handy.
I've just listened to the new song by the Wild Beasts on youtube. I really recommend you don't do similar.
Much love, Ben Paul

Not necessarily a man, Mr. III. Could be a woman. I've not really decided, either way. Also, they don't just decide that they're The Queen - they know it for a certain fact.
