Nick Cave, you pussy.

Got a text message from my brother the day before yesterday:

"Just saw Nick Cave buying a cashmere scarf! Pussy!"

Then another text 5 minutes later:

"Fuckin aussie sell out batty man. Nice scarf, mind."

Interlude

Then yesterday he admitted he'd gone and said hello on the basis that I (his brother) ALWAYS pester celebrities. His exact words:

Toby: "Sorry Mr. Cave, I'm going to pester you."

Nick: "Aw, no warries mate."

Toby: "I just wanted you to know that I once won a 40 quid prize at school for a poem in which I plagarised some of your work."

Nick: "I'll ave arf of that."

Hello
I'm the cunt who took your images. I'm sorry that it pissed you off. Wasn't my intention.
I didn't answer your e-mails because I never got them (Did you send them to malelemento@...? I only check that when I´m doing the show. And right now I'm on vacation) You can resend those mails to the address below, if you want to.
It's true that I took the pictures instead of linking to your site. BUT your site is clearly named in the post and Woebot is the first link on my link list.
I never pretended that those pictures where my creation, I never tagged them or anything.
Anyway, I enjoy your site very much. AND I'm prepared to compensate you. I'm not a record collector but I have several thousend of records. So, if you want some cheap argentinian piece of vinyl, I could sent it to you to wherever you say, at my expense of course. What do you say?

PS: Should I mention that I almost play in my radio show the Les Vampyrettes track that you included in your set for Resonance? I didn't, though (it was impressive but wasn't what i expected).

Sorry again.

Hey no worries Hernan. It was fun screwing around with the images. When one can't get hold of someone, or they dont reply to emails that can be frustrating.

However as a general rule of thumb it's probably advisable not to "piggyback" images. Tut tut. Naughty Boy ;-)

Peace.
