its more like 2 floors of comics, art books and action figures :D

if you like stuff like that though there are a few other independant shops around the same area of london.
even a kidrobot shop isnt far, although its pricey.
best toy shop is called playlounge and its in soho, about ten mins walk from forbiden planet.
also there is a comic book/art book shop just over the road from forbidden planet but you will probly notice that first if you are walking up from charing cross road anyway.

im only saying this because i wont personally go in forbidden planet and want to encourage others to shop elsewhere too.


ive also read that its original line up of mudhoney playing, think i read it on a newsletter from wegottickets.com


i've been to playlounge, but prefer forbidden planet. i know its overpriced, but its not like i go there to buy the whole shop, i just enjoy looking at everything :)
i don't have a square to spare. can't spare a square.

i went to forbidden planet in jolly old england on my dear friend ingrid's suggestion after we attended atp in minehead back in '09, thought it was a fine place of commerce, found a couple action figurines to bring back for buds while i was there too. i've also been to the one in new york city, i'd be hard pressed to find a reason to talk shit about any store that carries that type of merchandise.

as far as atp, it would be so much more convenient to attend it since it's in London rather than the other side of the country, way different experience too though, staying in the chalet on the grounds of a holiday campground past its prime was also a worthy experience

pic i took in the film museum in london...

Cool. I want to go to the film museum.
Is that the Rat Monkey from Braindead?
I think we should put it in a jar labeled 'melvins'

Looking at all the bands announced Friday still looks by far the best line up.

Looks to me like the rabbit in the hat from the Twilight Zone movie, but I think we're both wrong.

Really happy with the new additions, Archers of Loaf! and Floor, never expected that.. Don't really care about Wolves and Yob, their last record was extremely dissapointing compared to their previous I think. Shame about Guided by Voices, rather had them on the bill instead of their replacement The Afghan Whigs, altough that will be a unique reunion show.

FLOOR!! yes was hoping to get a chance to see them...
also yob are great, or at least were great at roadburn. afghan whigs and dirty three is also fine with me...
don't care much about WITR.
overall this festival is shaping up really nicely.
meanwhile we booked our holidays, so it will be a week in wales, then atp followed by a few days in brighton before going home again.

I found it here; http://www.odysseybooking.com/avails.php

Torche is also on Odyssey, and it says they are coming to europe in june/july. I doubt Floor will tour before that, but who knows.. We should definetely have a drink/chat at ATP by the way maarten!

harvey milk @ atp would be cool again...
but if they tour it's also worth to catch one of the club shows.
