Stoke Underground.
This guy had such an impressive bonce it had to be documented.
Have you noticed the tie's printed on the t-shirt!
Good for looking smart at the front of a gig but without the danger of accidental manual strangulation.
He also seems to look incredibly calm given what the bloke behind him's up to! Not even a hint of a grimace.
I couldn't see from my angle but I bet he was wearing a some Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet Moonboots!

ReplyDeleteJe vous parle d'un temps
ReplyDeleteQue les moins de vingt ans
Ne peuvent pas connaître
Montmartre en ce temps-là
Accrochait ses lilas
Jusque sous nos fenêtres
Et si l'humble garni
Qui nous servait de nid
Ne payait pas de mine
C'est là qu'on s'est connu
Moi qui criait famine
Et toi qui posais nue
La bohème, la bohème
Ça voulait dire on est heureux
La bohème, la bohème
Nous ne mangions qu'un jour sur deux
Dans les cafés voisins
Nous étions quelques-uns
Qui attendions la gloire
Et bien que miséreux
Avec le ventre creux
Nous ne cessions d'y croire
Et quand quelque bistro
Contre un bon repas chaud
Nous prenait une toile
Nous recitions des vers
Groupés autour du poêle
En oubliant l'hiver
La bohème, la bohème
Ça voulait dire tu es jolie
La bohème, la bohème
Et nous avions tous du génie
Souvent il m'arrivait
Devant mon chevalet
De passer des nuits blanches
Retouchant le dessin
De la ligne d'un sein
Du galbe d'une hanche
Et ce n'est qu'au matin
Qu'on s'asseyait enfin
Devant un café-crème
Epuisés mais ravis
Fallait-il que l'on s'aime
Et qu'on aime la vie
La bohème, la bohème
Ça voulait dire on a vingt ans
La bohème, la bohème
Et nous vivions de l'air du temps
Quand au hasard des jours
Je m'en vais faire un tour
A mon ancienne adresse
Je ne reconnais plus
Ni les murs, ni les rues
Qui ont vu ma jeunesse
En haut d'un escalier
Je cherche l'atelier
Dont plus rien ne subsiste
Dans son nouveau décor
Montmartre semble triste
Et les lilas sont morts
La bohème, la bohème
On étaient jeunes, on étaient fous
La bohème, la bohème
Ça ne veut plus rien dire du tout
.....
peut etre fait et refait
mais jolie représentation
Smashing.
ReplyDeleteThat was lovely.
Can anyone tell me what it means?
Just in case if you are not overfilled with the spam from us, the fools, here are the two pence about the french song:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=neazIF9vDIU
I had a weird idea here in my very east of Europe that you guys in your very west of Europe who travel to France that often should understand French (just kidding).
I think the lyrics (well, the translation - I'm not that clever to read French :)) is wonderful and suitable and... (sadly) has something in common with all that about Peter and friends, that we hope to witness during the 2009... I hope my words make sense - there's a hope for focused and healthy Peter, great gigs from all the Babyshambles together and solo, new album(s) and new songs, that tickling and taking-breath-away feeling of expectation of The Libertines reunion... and also there's a splinter of realization in the heart that nothing is going to be the same, that the addictions are no less than diseases that tend to become uncontrollable, that each year runs faster than the previous... That adds a bit of sadness to the lot of hope ;)
Anyway, the beginning of the year is promising. Stay on course!
it's a song by Aznavour. Here the link to the song with english subtitles
