fiskis sunset no. 152
I think I've said it before... A big fat sunset is the only thing that can make the shit brown houses in Fiskis look beautiful.
nowhere land
Went into the nowhere land with the little rascals today. Loads of rain, snails, worms and frogs. Pretty cool.
the entertainment industry is killing music
Did your old mix tapes kill music or did they make you buy more records? Hollywood, the big record companies and the US government definitely believes that they killed the business. Now, 20 years later, they have forced the swedish government to close down the Pirate Bay, a swedish bit torrent tracker. Our Minister for Justice, Thomas Bodström, choose to listen to Big Brothers friendly threats instead of informing Him of the swedish law. I suggest that Big Brother and the entertainment industry celebrates while they can - the tracker will probably be up and working again in a day or two. They should also contemplate how come people choose to steal their products instead of paying for them. Maybe it's time to adapt their prices to what the market is willing to pay? Isn't that why capitalism is so superior? It makes things better and cheaper. And what do you do if the market demands movies and music for free? Isn't the customer always right? Support Piratbyrån.

it's alive!
It's alive!!! And look how moved I was - I couldn't even manage to take a sharp picture. This was a moment of total happiness.
the tech squad
The Tech Squad is in the fuckin' house! Brother Andreas and neighbour Robin helps out in my moment of darkness.
sad computer
A moment of total despair. My hard drive died. Look how sad my iBook looks with a dead hard drive inside. Poor creature. To the left you can see my brand new tools and to the right the new and improved hard drive!
last day ever
Look how happy he is! It's Albions last day at café sjuttio. Next stop is ultimate fame as a rock star. Check out his and Naked Apes excellent video Fashion Freak. Damn those zombies are hot!!!
flash
Yes, I know that it's very stupid to drink gin & tonic at three in the morning. I'm sorry.
Flash - a-ah - saviour of the universe
Flash - a-ah - he'll save everyone of us
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Flash - a-ah - he's a miracle
Flash - a-ah - king of the impossible
dante, johanna & maria
After listening to Arvid Tuba for a while things started to become a little bit weird... a big pitcher of Gin & Tonic came on the table... and disappeared...
arvid tuba
After some beers we became a bit nostalgic and started to listen to old Arvid Tuba tapes. You should definitely visit his homepage and listen to his music. I think my favourite is Kråkan Kermit - Kermit The Crow.
dantes porch
A couple of weeks ago, just before my hard drive died, some people (not me - I'm too damn lazy) helped Dante & Johanna to rebuild their porch. It turned out really well and they had a very nice party to celebrate the occasion too. I, of course, turned up just in time for the party.

summer has arrived... kind of...
Today it was over 25 degrees centigrade. Almost like summer, but most trees still just have small buds and no leafs. I went out for my usual jogging round, that's the nice red line in the picture. I think it's approximately 7 km. Made a two hour stop at the X in the bottom of the picture, Lundsjön or Grove Lake, and took my first out door swim for this season. It was incredible! Five times I went into the lake and enjoyed the cool fresh water. Holmen, the O at the top of the picture, is still too cold. It's sea water. But soon I'll be there too.

ghetto gardening
When I woke up every tenant at Ålgatan seemed to be involved in some serious gardening. Very impressive.
robin & per
This is Robin & Per at Snotty. Still awake. But it's getting late and we're starting to feel the weight of all the beers. Damn those danes making their beer so heavy. Things are starting to turn a bit weird and we manage to scare a pair of german turists. Sorry german turist dudes!
snotty!
Helena a.k.a. DJ Hyena and Sten, the owners of snotty, have created a really nice place with lots of excellent music. They even got a picture of Gary Numan on the wall! And a picture of Siouxsie too!

may day 2006 - sergelgatan 1.1
This is just a few minutes before the riot begun. The AFA and the Invisible Party dudes probably felt that they had been waiting long enough and the Drunk Punks agreed. It was time to break stuff and show the world the glory of pointless destruction. 130 losers were arrested. A lot of energy was wasted and absolutely nothing was gained.
may day 2006 - lyrical high?
If you know the name of this group please tell me. I think they are called Lyrical High... but I'm not sure... could be one of the other acts. Anyway - they were great what ever they call themselves.
may day 2006 - more police
I needed money ’cause I had none
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I Fought The Law - Sonny Curtis
may day 2006 - maria
Me and Maria went to Reclaim the City's May Day party at Odenplan in Stockholm. There were more than 1200 anarchists, lefties, party people, hooligans and lots of good music. All watched over by at least 200 policemen. Crazy! So why do I celebrate May Day? Because of both the Haymarket Riot back in 1886 and the fact that it's a part of the great old pagan holidays Valborg and Beltane. May Day rules.
gunvald larsson
This is me doing one more of my famous Gunvald Larsson/Mikael Persbrandt impersonations. "Å va faan glor du på rå!?"
micromusic
Finally I've found a ripped copy of Gary Numans Micromusic. In 1980 and 1981 Gary Numan staged several elaborate, and now classic, stage shows which, although successful, actually lost him a great deal of money because of their vast expense. This is a concert video from the final of these concerts at Wembley Arena back in 1981. It's absolutely brilliant! The concert is also documented on the Living Ornaments 1981 CD. But why haven't they released it on DVD?
laughing man
"I'd thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes."
Check out this badge I've found at the Sci-Fi bookstore - it's the Laughing Man logo from the brilliant Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex anime series - and now I have it on my backpack. Am I a nerd or what?
new shoes
Just like Leo Johnson in Twin Peaks I've got a pair of new shoes. But I don't have a microcassette in the heel of the shoe. At least as far as I know. Good looking aren't they?
