I knew I was behind the times where the latest communication technology applies and really couldn't give a fig since it's a long time since I was 15 but this story from the Guardian almost had me weak at the knees until I realized that in the UK it is now April 1.

Don't have much to add where music applies but if you're looking for an album that's a real grower you could do a lot worse than Valery Gore's sophomore effort. A real beauty that has found it's way to getting ever increasing spins as 2009 moves along.
