Wait for the mail to come, Probably have to sign for it :L Then i'll put it on my iPod then be blown away by it. Shut up craig. Hey Craig! I'll probably listen to the Apple Lossless version that will be emailed to me since it'll be better quality than the CD. Apart from that, probably working...  |

I'll be back in school, probably even for a leak of the album. I will download the leak and listen to it. I'll also get a hard copy. I agree, I need a hard copy of all the albums I like. Digital doesn't do enough for me. Even though once I burn the cd onto my computer I never use the cd again haha.
I'll listen to it a lot the first day, the whole album all the way through. I usually just sit in a room and listen to it and can't be bothered. Then once i'm comfortable with it a few times through i'll probably smoke and see how the album feels that way.

October 17th, 2011:
I enter my local JB Hi Fi store and swagger through the door, my pace slowly picking up expectantly as I approach the Music section. My excitement is diffused by a slight sense of panic and irritation as I realise that I'm not sure which section Noel's record resides in. I pace aimlessly for several minutes before panic overtakes me as I realise I will have to ask... <gulp!>- a JB HI FI employee AT THE COUNTER!!
I shuffle up to the counter where some 'too cool for school' twenty year old sneering wanker eyeballs me up and down, snorting indignantly when he spots the Pretty Green logo on my harrington. His rave yellow coloured lanyard conceals what passes for a uniform in this store- stove pipe jeans, Dunlop Volleys and a press stud flannel shirt rolled up to reveal pencil thin biceps.
stellas: hi mate, I'm looking for the new album by Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds.
wanker (highly distorted voice into microphone): CD enquiry at the counter! CDs to the counter!!
(A bigger wanker with an even thinner countenance glides up to the counter. Of course, working in the music department at JB, needless to say he resembles Kele Okereke)
Kele: Yep?
stellas: I'm after the new album by Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds.
Kele: who's she?
stellas: Noel Gallagher. He's a 'he'.
Kele: Nah, don't think we have them mate.
stellas: well, can you check?
Kele (in a huff): okay, right.
(walks off and returns after ten seconds)
Kele: we have one copy in our Rockhampton store.
stellas: that's no good to me, this is Essendon.
(Australian in joke: Essendon is in Victoria and Rockhampton is in Queensland- a distance of many thousands of kilometres. BOOM!)
Kele: would you like me to have it transfered down to this store?
stellas: how long will that take?
kele: oh, ahm, could be three weeks, could be six, depends.
stellas: depends on what?
kele: whether or not I can be bothered even calling the Rockhampton store. What did you say her name was again?
stellas: Noel Gallagher. He's a 'he'. You know- Wonderwall?
Kele: Oh yeah! The guy from Travis! (sings) 'what's a wonderwall anyway?'. Great song.
stellas: are you naturally a fuckwit or is it some kind of hobby?
Stellas drives down the road to K-mart where he finds a copy of Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds for $19.95 but it's the single disc edition so he ends up buying it on Itunes anyway to get the documentary as well.

The moment I saw 'Cool Hand Luke', I simply knew that Paul would grace my next green salad. For years now, I have followed religiously, Brick Pollitt's drinking regime from 'Cat On a Hot Tin Roof'. Elizabeth Taylor remarks that most men lose their looks when they persist with heavy drinking indefinitely but she marvels at how Newman just looks better the more he drinks. That applies to me- I have been a heavy drinker since I was twenty. I'm now thirty-four and I look fifteen. Go figure... |

You are one of two things. My spiritual twin (evil or divine I don't care) or God. I think you might be the latter. I love your take on JB emloyees, I've found cockroaches on my back veranda that were more graceful and more helpful. I remember when I went to buy my discounted copy of Be Here Now the other week and the girl at the counter looked as if she'd been attacked by a pack of Dementors. |

I bought the deluxe edition but it'll take at least a month to get here after the release day. So the day the album leaks is the one i'm looking forward to.

I also concur with said musings on pissant JB-HIFI employees. I would have loved to have taken a photo of the retarded look of chip-on-the-shoulder dreadlocked chick when I tried to explain to her who Beady-Eye was. Sorry sweetheart theres more to life than a Beth Kitto record. No wonder people steal music.
Anyway after I download the record illegally - ill put it on, sit there and listen to it (with a retarded look on my face). Get shitty with it because it doesn't sound like Morning Glory. Curse myself for wasting precious download. Think that Noel could have still been dining out on the b-sides he wasted on his first two records. Get more angry. Put on the Smiths - Hatful of Hollow instead.

I experienced a prelude to this today while buying Arctic Monkeys' Suck It and See at Sanity: "While I'm here, could you tell me if you'll be getting the new Noel Gallagher album in when it comes out?" "I'm sorry who?" "Noel Gallagher, the album is called Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. The artist may also be listed as Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds." "Umm, Gallagher... I'll have a look... Gallagher and Lyle?" "What? No, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds." "Sorry we don't seem to have it." "Yes, that's because it's not out yet, I was wondering if you will be when it's released in October." "Umm... I don't think so, sorry... So, anyway that's $24.95." If this happens on release day, heads will roll. |

The leak is the important thing to me. |

When I bought the Beady Eye album at Best Buy, I had to spell it to the sales associate. "Do you have the Beady Eye album?"
"BDI?"
"As in, B-E-A-D-Y -E-Y-E....."
"BDI, BDI....oh, I see what you mean now...."  But at least they did have it A few cold Stellas will be in order, though, to celebrate the Chief's record  |
