Couldn't cope if you crashed today...
Ok, so I know I'm the spontanious and creative one in the band, but I decided it's time to make a plan for getting myself acknowledged. I have the following options to take:
* Dress like Ian Astbury of The Cult.
* Turn Radiohead into a boyband - can't you imagine Thom's sultry "Look into my eyes, you will see, they're gimpy like fishys!" - ok, so that one needs a little work.
* Kill Jonny. Although mum might send me to my room for a whole month! So that's too extreme.
* Shave my head - we need a bald band member.
* Do an duet *cough*Thom*cough* with whoever this season's 'popular underground' band are - this year's version of Drugstore, UNKLE, Bjork, PJ Harvey, Beck, etc. Hmm, I wonder if those Strokes lads are free - they're pretty well-respected by everyone with decent music taste, right?
* Hire someone to follow me around 24/7 with a portable spotlight, thus eliminating the problem of Jonny's shadow and possibly getting a nice tan into the bargain...
Or perhaps I should give up. Bass players are so unappreciated. Look at Lemmy - no-one really knows who he is, they call him "That Ace Of Spades guy." I'd hate it if fans only recognised us because of one song...
Hmm, I wonder if Roger Manning Jr. wants to form a special club. We could have secret handshakes and membership cards (cut out from Stanley's cereal boxes) - I'm dead good at colouring in, I am!
Luv, Colin x
