Fireman in a tumble dryer:

A firefighter who was involved in a prank in which he was spun in a tumble dryer has apologised for his actions.
Andy Bruce, 33, was filmed climbing into the machine at Blackley fire station in Manchester before it was switched on.
Senior fire officers described the incident as foolish and dangerous.
Mr Bruce, who lives in Radcliffe, Bury, has not been suspended but he is likely to face disciplinary charges, the fire service said.
"I am the person in the video, and I'm very sorry," Mr Bruce said.

Good to see my taxes being put to good use.
My favourite song and video of the year so far. We Share Our Mother's Health by The Knife. Mental.

Big thumbs up from me there, I *love* The Knife - their album 'Silent Shout' is excellent!
[edit] The bass in this track reminds me of a Speccy 128 for some reason!
[edit 2] - This is currently my fave Knife track - There's just something about the vocals in the chrous that makes me go all tingly:-
The Knife - Marble House

The music is curiously mid-80s Hubbard/Galway/Daglish c64ish.

Thats the first track on the Kids are Alright DVD (which is fantastic if you're a Who fan).

Moonie apparently paid a studio techie to overload the flashbang in his bass drum, which is evident from the huge explosion at the end. Pete Townsend was deaf for a week and his hair caught fire, Moonie was thrown off and cut his arm on his kit, so the story goes anyhow

And some SilverGinger 5:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qv8fjeY4fPE
I was at that gig, and the guy stagediving at the beginning was an Aussie guy who got dragged up on stage by Ginger as he'd been flown over specially for the gig by members of the Wildhearts Mailing List (bit like our travel fund). Top night that was.
Shame there seems to be no footage of the 50+ wildhearts fans singing Don't Worry About Me at the tops of their voices in the Moon Under Water (what was the Marquee *sob*) before the gig. With a lot of very bemused city types wondering what the hell was going on.
