om sproget / on language

Jeg vil skrive bloggen på både engelsk og dansk. Hvis du kan ikke forstå ordene, fortæl mig, og jeg vil forsøge at oversætte. Hvis du er dansk, vil jeg gerne fortælle dig, jeg endnu er ved at lære sproget, og mit dansk er ikke særlig godt. Hvis du gerne vil hjælpe mig med ordene, det er rart og tak for det. Min email er somedayashtrays@gmail.com.

This blog will be written in both English and Danish. If you, as a reader, have trouble with one of those languages and would like a translation, please let me know, and I will do my best to oblige. If you are a Danish reader, please know that I am just learning, and my Danish is far from perfect. If you would like to suggest corrections please do so. Email me at somedayashtrays@gmail.com.

Jeg gik forfærdelig solskold fredag eftermiddag. Men det var værd det.

Here’s the podcast (finally) of last week’s radio Ashtrays, which includes the interview with Stine Sørensen and Morten Svenstrup of Under Byen. Josh did a really nice job of interviewing them. I think I actually managed to ask a few coherent questions, but I’ve never been good at that -- plus, apparently I become somewhat nervous when in the presence of people who are actually kind of, you know, famous, and whose music I actually like. Perhaps this is why I forgot to turn of the automix at the beginning of the show (and forgot to turn other things on at various points later on), so you can hear I think a Devo song over our talking for the first few minutes, so it’s kind of hard to understand. And I decided not to redo the intro, for whatever reason. Sorry.

It was very nice though, anyway -- and Morten and Stine were very nice -- no laughing at me or exchanging looks at any or all of my technical blunders. Anyway, I had fun; overall it came out well. And it was especially nice, getting to meet the two of them, since the OLCC believes that my young age means I’m not responsible enough to see shows. Or something like that.

Spillelisten er her:

1. Den her sang handler om at få det bedste ud af det – Under Byen
2. Pink Moon – Nick Drake
3. More Than This – Electrelane
4. Bad Attitude – Lisa Germano
5. Close to Me – Club 8
6. The Luckiest Guy on the Lower East Side – the Magnetic Fields
7. Since K Got Over Me – the Clientele

It’s a short list, yes, but there's some nice music, picked by four different people (as opposed to just one, being me). And remember, there’s also all that talking. That awesome talking…
