Readings from A Clockwork Orange are Jarvis's comment on the recent riots. He also mentions a benefit gig for the labels affected when the indie record stocks burnt down. He offers us a virtual tour of the places he's visited with Pulp lately. From Perth and Melbourne in Australia, where Pulp played the On the Bright Side Festival and Splendour in the Grass; via a Northern Australian B&B where his host knew all about Papua New Guinea... Then they went to Budapest in Hungary; to Norway for Oslo's Øyafestival; to Way Out West in Gothenberg, Sweden; to Portugal's Paredes de Coura; ending up in Greece. And keeping it global, Hawaii became the 50th American state On This Day. Birthdays: Joe Strummer, Friz Freleng, Kim Cattrall, Liam Howlett, Kelis, Christopher-Robin Milne (who hated Pooh), Jackie DeShannon, Kenny Rogers (on having varied creative interests) and Aubrey Beardsley. Valete: Eugene McDaniels.
