| Sorry, just kidding, I wasn't there. |
| I know, hilarious me! But I've heard good things about it! No, actually I haven't heard anything about it. In fact, I'm writing this on Friday 12 September 2008. As far as I know the world might have ended in the next few hours, or maybe Familjen's crowd made the brittle floor of The Old Blue last cave in due to all the crazy dancing. Anyway, I hope they come back soon so I can see them for real. Now I might have some breakfast (ie in "real" time not while writing this, I had breakfast 9 hours ago) Labels: Familjen |

| You should really go and see Familjen tonight! |
 I will be great! Me? I will probably be stuck at Stansted airport waiting for my luggage. Woopy doo.

| Familjen to London! |
 All respect to Familjen* (aka Johan T Karlsson) who makes pretty sweet electropop. It's a bit too "techno" for myself, but I can very much see the appeal. I do like his hit "Det snurrar i min skalle" from last year though and I might even buy his album and give it a chance. Who knows, maybe it'll make me get into this type of music. At least he sings! That's a start. I've seen him live twice, and he gets a fantastic reaction from the crowd and both gigs were a lot of fun. He seems to have that same crazy (Swedish) fanbase around him that Slagsmålsklubben's got. I also adore the dialect he sings in (ie "Skåne dialect", which heralds from south of Sweden and is traditionally frowned upon by people from other parts of Sweden since it's considered to be something of a farmers' dialect. I disagree though! I've spent lots of time in Skåne and both my sisters have lived there for a long time now - I love it!). Also, since the gig is around the corner from where I live, I might just go and sway back and forth at the end of the room, sipping some beer,
One website says that Familjen are playing at Old Blue Last on 17 and 18 September whereas another only lists 18 ... confusing!
17 September 2008 - Old Blue Last, London (so this might not be correct!)
18 September 2008 - Old Blue Last, London - tickets here
