Could You Take My Picture:

I was supposed to have gone to Copenhagen this weekend for the Blogforum event and the Kings of Leon show. But because of a lot of things which went wrong on top of each other I stayed home and worked instead. So that kinda sucked.

I did find time to go to the AGF game Sunday and learned two things. Don't let a winning streak fool you - AGF are mediocre at best and sometimes they're just downright terrible (they lost 1-3 btw). And I learned that I'm a horrible photographer. Muhammad Ali has a steadier hand than I do, so all the shots I took at the game were beyond blurry. Obviously, I haven't read the manual yet, so maybe the autofocus or something is screwing with me. But most likely I just suck at taking pictures. But hopefully I'll get better.

After the game I went down the pub and hooked up with my brother and Kristian, who had watched the Arsenal game and stayed for the Chelsea/ManU game. There I managed to document how Danish football fans are able to watch games together peacefully.

Most people seemed to be in a fairly good mood down there (maybe not the United fans, but who cares about that), because Arsenal got a point and Liverpool won, so it was fun hanging out down there.

I picked up Jack Johnson's "On and On" this weekend although I haven't heard his first record, which supposedly is pretty great. The new one is good, but it lacks outstanding tracks. But it's very lowkey and mellow, which I think is pretty cool.
I also picked up the Ryan Adams EP "Love is Hell pt .1", which has two bonus tracks on it, so with ten songs it's actually like a regular album. I'll have to buy "llornkcor" eventually, but for now I'm very happy listening to "Love is Hell", which is a lot closer to Adams' other stuff than the T-Rex inspired album he released simultaneously with this release.
I'm just such a huge fan of the unfortunately named singer/songwriter so even though this isn't exactly his finest hour I've still listened to "Love is Hell" a lot this weekend. It's depressing as hell, but that's the charm and exactly what you want from a Ryan Adams release.
