He Tries to Run But He Don't Get Far

Sorry for the lack of updates. I have three massive tests this upcoming Tuesday and Wednesday, and I've been busy not preparing for them.

It would really behoove you (if I used that right) to check out this amazing photo from Rui Mendes on Flickr: Oh, the beauty!

Just click that. I am too lazy to ask the photographer if I can post it here, and there you go. It's a damned great picture.

I can't remember if I've seen this interview, but it deserves multiple viewings:


Basically, ALL of youtube user jokkoapa6's channel rules. Just browse through it and you'll find stuff like this: TADA! and a bunch of great 70's punk stuff as well.

Also, this is bloody amazing (black sparkles! the hair!):


And pvblovideos has a nice concert that starts with this:

Playlist: Cave's 1994 Favorites

RutgerHK over on the nick-cave.com forums posted this. I thought it was interesting to see what Mr. Cave enjoyed in 1994.

This is from a 1994 episode of MTV's 120 Minutes. RutgerHK says, "The episode is hosted by Nick Cave and he plays his favourite videos as well as some of his own music. I tried to find the playlist online, but I could hardly find any page referring to this particular show. So I thought I might as well post it here. Hope you like it."

Top 50 Cave Songs: Yours

What are your top 50 Nick Cave songs?



Songs can include anything done with The Bad Seeds, Boys Next Door, Birthday Party, Grinderman, special appearances, soundtrack work, etc.

Try to rank them, #1 being your favorite, all the way down to #50. I want to come up with a list of what some of us(we?) random fans really love.

Post your choices here (in order), and I'll post all the results. I also need to finally post some mixes and work some more on the mood theme.

Ciao! (wtf?) I'll post mine sometime this weekend.

Coming In About...FOREVER: Mood Theme!

I don't know how many of you actually use LiveJournal (I mostly just surf random communities there now), but I'm FINALLY making a Nick Cave mood theme. If YOU use LJ, let me know if you'd be interested in using this. I'm making it regardless, but I'd like to know. :)

Now I remember why I didn't get around to making this ages ago. It takes FOREVER. There are 130 different moods, but some are nested (for example, I'm using the same photo for stressed and rushed).

Anyway, just wanted to show you what it'll look like. It should end up more equal as far as Nick "eras" go...I just found the 'stache pics to be pretty ideal for angry moods, haha.

TEASER (the words of the moods aren't part of the mood images):

'Stache Bookmarks

Following up the Birthday Party bookmarks I made awhile ago [HERE], I decided to make some Magical 'Stache of Doom ones. I will make more, but knowing me, it'll take forever.

Spread the 'stache love! Click, print, and be 'stache(and boa)-fied!



And, also 'stache-related, a lovely Nick and Warren photo I'd never seen:

Coming to Redecorate a Home Near You

To further bask in the greatness of the amazing hair and eyeliner days (and apparently the days of amazingly tacky deck furniture), I give you this beaut (click it):

Just found it...never seen it before...in awe. Great photo of the moment. Also, Rowland (who looks freakin' cute) and Mick are a bit chummy.

Dear fucking lord in heaven. I am...now dead...

Much thanks to corpse_in_snow at LiveJournal for pointing this out to me. I NEVER search for "Boys Next Door," so I may not have ever found this. Dear god. The makeup! The youngness! THE FUCKING BEAUTY!

Dear...lord. SO cheezy, yet...

Okay, so I started this damned blog to organize my NC weirdness and to show how much I respect him. I do, I really, really do...but omg...CHEEZY HOTNESS! OMG!
