This is the first day of potential redundancy, so let’s lay out some ground rules for our new theatre of operation. This is designed to be a live WIP for reference purposes.
1 - Set your alarm.
2 - Have breakfast.
These first two are basic but important to ‘remain actively human’.
3 - Lists. We’ll come back to this, but I have a feeling these suckers are going to be important.
4 - Extra-curricular activity. 1 per diem. They keep you sane and get you out of the house.
5 - No Television. Trust me on this one.
6 - Artists to avoid. This will be a separate post, but danger-zones include Belle & Sebastian, Radiohead and other overtly emotive songwriters.
7 - Artists to seek-out. Again, we’ll develop this in a separate post, possibly even a dedicated site. So far I can recommend Muddy Waters and Oscar Sulley. I think that a general theme may emerge of artists who are tough cunts and an inspiration to us all.
