this is v decent
need to get into jazz, mr wins
my favourite song of all time is soft machine's moon in june which is at the progrock end of jazz but is in the lineage
there's so much jazz and i find it hard to get a semiotic handle on it. lots of improv, lots of fluid & rambling semi-composition. hard for me to think of that much beyond a transient experience - certainly not a 'song' or an 'album' (songs. albums.) to have 'definite opinions' about. shit's cool y'know but i find jazz best experienced in a live or ambient setting
know any good clubs?

i'm basically not a snob about any food ever except shit masquerading as 'authentic foreign cuisine' that's actually unhealthy mass-marketed battery-farmed crap with a truly horrible aesthetic and ad-campaigns dreamt up in Satan's gizzard that are taking people away from actual restaurants because they're not just fast-food, they're 'a proper meal'

not a regla nandos customer but i really wanted some grilled chicken at 1am last night, less so rn but still probably enough that i might get some later
anyway whether nandos is shit or not is beside the point, which is whether nandos is real
― just got dope thai food (Nilmar Honorato da Silva), Tuesday, 19 November 2013 08:16 (ten years ago) link
by this point it is real. perhaps not on its own, but a fight at nandos or a wedding reception at nandos would be plureal, magnificently real

The Haim album is possibly my favourite of the year but I agree that it doesn't seem quite like AOTY material. Then again I don't think I've heard an album this year that immediately struck me as a legit classic like Kaleidoscope Dream or Let England Shake.

It occurred to me the other day that the ILM Top 10 albums could end up being almost entirely comprised of shiny pop-rock and pop-country.

I think it will be fascinating this year because there's so little consensus in the lists and the ones that are cropping up a lot so far aren't ILX favourites. From my own top 10 I can see Vampire Weekend, John Grant, Haim and Kacey doing well but I'm not sure what else will place.

It's an obvious suggestion but the Kremlin's interior churches and cathedrals are stunning.
Get some good Georgian / Azeri / Armenian food.
Might be worth checking out one of the markets on the outskirts for the realness.
Novodevichy Convent / Cemetery is somewhere I go to a lot. You can see where Gogol, Bulgakov, Shostakovich, etc were buried.
Worth checking Afisha for music listings.
