i am so wrapped up in myself

i only just this second noticed that scout niblett is not only an extremely talented recording artiste, drummer extroardinaire, and the namesake of my girlfriend’s hamster, but she is also possesing the ability to make funny muso jokes! how else to explain that on kidnapped by neptune, on the album of the same name, whilst deftly propelling the repeated refrain

where have you been? where where where have you been?

with yet another of the swaggering drum riffs that pepper the record, she answers her own question. on guitar. by slyly plucking the melody from rocket from the crypt’s on a rope. you know. you must know the one. it’s all:

on a rope, on a rope, i bin hangin’ on a rope

normally i would post a pic of her, perhaps in one of those skeleton-suits that everyone would wear if it was socially accepatable to do so. but i was even more endeared to her graf than i was to her pretty face.

the gospel according to scout
