N @neo i think it's pretty hyphy that you drink & use drugs while being a teacher. do you think your students know? and can you tell when they are on 1?
Most of them probably assume I drink and smoke. Since the class I normally teach is on sensation and perception I get a lot of questions about drugs and I always answer them and sometimes will tell a "when I was your age" story about past drug use. I wouldn't talk about my current substance use with a student, and I would NEVER get fucked up before work, so I think they probably think I'm 'retired' when it comes to real drugs.

What is this shit? Am I really supposed to care that Bloc Party is doing a DJ set at some bar, or the bassist from Foals (for example)? I don't get it - a couple of years ago Peter Hook did a DJ set (in New Zealand) for which he charged as much as a mid-level indie band would, and he (and/or the promotor) was reportedly peaved at the poor attendance. Which staggers me, because he was in New Order and Joy Division, good and fine, but I don't care what CDs he plays (at least not to the extent of shelling out decent cash). Is anyone with me here? I have no problem with musicians/bands doing DJ sets, and they might well be very good, but I really don't understand how this is meant to appeal to fans of the particular band they are/were in (without separately earning a reputation as a good DJ). Thoughts?
