London blogger: Slutty Fringe
(One of my favorite blog titles of all time.)

the fringes are sluttastic

  1. Name? Tony Poland
  2. Age? The wrong side of 20.
  3. Occupation? Definitely not what I wanted to be when I was five.
  4. How long have you lived in London? Long enough to have lived through electroclash.
  5. Favorite London venue? Plastic People
  6. How long have you been blogging? Since July 2006
  7. How did you choose the name of your blog? Girls with fringes is a good look, and I couldn’t think of a music-shaped name that didn’t sound proper wack. (Ed., a fringe is the same as bangs in Americuh.)
  8. First concert? Cypress Hill at Brixton Academy in 1994.
  9. Most recent concert? Poney Poney at 93 Feet East
  10. Most memorable concert? Santogold at Hoxton Bar & Kitchen cos I kept trying to steal Mapei’s hat
  11. Most disappointing? I don’t think I’ve ever been to a gig where I’ve left less than impressed by the music. Actually… scratch that. A girl somehow convinced me to go Reverend & The Makers last year–truly awful stuff
  12. Dream line-up? A reformed Gang of Four and LCD Soundsystem to open, then Funkadelic space jamming with Daft Punk with mic support from A Tribe Called Quest with dance routines from Gwen Stefani’s Japanese muses. The after party has Maurice Fulton, Carl Craig and Boys Noize playing records.
