I do not tolerate drunken fools…

Actually, I love some drunken fools. How come you always ask me ‘Was I really drunk?’ and I have to answer ‘You were SHITFACED.’? And just now you said ‘No more vodka’ then your next text said ‘I’m getting vodka…’ Tuh. Daft git. Love.
Anyway, Idle Pursuits by Duels is FUCKING ACE. I can remember them playing it live with the Cribs, and then at Middlesbrough Music Live. Oh yes, I remembered it.
Then it died a death. It disappeared from their live set and it was widely acknowledged that it wasn’t going on the album.
Then they announced it as a b-side to Animal. Joy abounded, it’s everyone’s favourite. Well. Among the favourites.
It’s your average generic old-skool Duels song, which is why it’s so brilliant.
In other news, Duels are on the telly again tonight, and Belle and Sebastian are playing on the same programme. And do you know why it’s so brilliant? It’s all live performances, which means Animal is mind-blowing. And Belle and Sebastian play Sukie In The Graveyard, which is up there with my all-time favourite songs.
Yeah, so I watched it last night as well, I don’t care, Duels on the telly is a novelty. I love them. Can you tell?
