Dizzy
So, I was standing outside the Powerstation last night, just gone outside for a breather between bands - Salmonella Dub were setting up. There's a handful of people milling outside, fagging on, and then this black dude in a green baseball cap and green sweatshirt bowls up, with a TV camera crew in tow. I'm thinking "What's Dizzee Rascal doing standing outside the Powerstation? Aint he from England? Long way from home, bro."
Turns out it was Dizzee Rascal - he's doing some gig on a plane for MTV NZ. Dude went inside and hung out upstairs, watching Salmonella Dub. who did a mighty fine show too, joined by Paddy Free and his shiny pink day-glo mohawk on keys for this tour. Ran into Andrew Penman from the band earlier, he gave me a copy of their new remix EP - thanks Andrew!
On another note, read this story about the local Indian wheat shortage? Roti in AK is going bad. The cost of rice has doubled in AK in recent months. Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin, meltdown expected...
