The Asteroids Galaxy Tour

What do people think of this band?

I really fancy the singer (absolutely lethal facial features) so have watched a few of their videos on youtube, and I think they are actually quite good.

The lyrics are bollocks, but I'll let them off because they are from Denmark, I mean, I speak French quite well, but I wouldn't be able to write a song in it unless it went like :

Je joue au football
Je mange le gateaux
Je vais a la piscine
J'habite dans un chateaux

Which is pretty much the same as what she's singing.

Anyway, it's fun stuff. Kind of like funky Beck-lite, but has a cool sound to it. Kind of like if Duffy was hot and from Denmark and got Clint Boon to write her songs. Or alternatively, a bit like Alisha's Attic.

Have a listen :

They did THAT SONG off the i-pod advert too :

Maybe I just like them because I want her to be my girlfriend.

Someone tell me if they are good or not in real life!

    2) at the wilmington arms, with... i can't remember. come to our gigs more often, yeah? a couple of months later the lady was on telly and i have to say that was quite weird to see. she is v pretty tho, so i can see why people are suddenly interested...

    • oh

      guess i missed the boat on that one. I'm actually convinced I met her and about four other hot Danish girls before in a pub in Holborn about four years ago, and "impressed" her with my immense knowledge of Peter Schmeichel, The Little Mermaid, and bacon. And told her I didn't like Mew - mistake! Then we all went to afterskool and one of my mates actually pulled one of her mates, and I didn't get anywhere obviously.

      Though to be honest I can't really remember, this could have been any number of pretty Danish girls. It's a bit like "OH MY GAWD YOU'RE FROM LONDON? DO YOU KNOW THE QUEEN?" what I'm doing here.
