Coldplay and Stuff White People Like

From Vanity Fair.

It is important to be aware that an affinity for Coldplay can cause an immediate loss of respect among “advanced” level white people. The best way to earn the trust of these people is to say “Coldplay is this generation’s U2.” (Note: this is an insult.) Advanced level white people are often the poorest white people in terms of money but the richest in terms of credibility and respect.

More appropriately, in my opinion Coldplay are this generation’s Dire Straits.

Eurovision

In the spirit of Eurovision, here’s one of my
favourites - In Your Eyes by Niamh Kavanagh from 1993.

The Flow Festival

This looks like being the most interesting festival of the summer in Europe. It’s on the weekend of August 17th in Helsinki. It’s a pity that I can’t make it. Artists on the bill include The Five Corners Quintet, Bebel Gilberto and the Australian band, Architecture in Helsinki.
