more from the boy least likely to...

OK, so it may seem that I've been plugging this Little Donkey business quite a lot lately... but I just got another bulletin from TBLLT regarding their cover of George Michael's "Faith". They did the song when I saw them back in June and it was brilliant. Plus the boys least likely to are completely adorable. So I'm sharing the news with you:

Rough Trade, by the way, are quite fabulous themselves. I just received some Brakes vinyl in the mail from them... cheers.

A side note - Loney, Dear was #10 on my friend Rich's best of 2006 list. Sometimes I really wish I lived in the UK. Not only for the great bands, but for the fact that they wish "Happy Christmas". I don't know if it's because I grew up hearing only "Merry Christmas" or what, but I really want to adopt "Happy Christmas" one year. I'm sure I'll get lots of looks. Anyhoo, I've not checked out the Loney, Dear album yet, but rest assured it is on "the list".

I likely won't be updating my blog until after Christmas, so everyone have a very happy (or merry) whatever-holiday-you-celebrate. And a safe, happy and music-filled new year.
