How I Met Your Mother Trying Not To Be Freaked Out By Britney Spears

by Stuart Heritage

It’s never nice being the new kid at school, especially when you were asked to leave the old school for crying a lot and not being able to feed yourself properly.

So, that said, Britney Spears must be feeling a lot of pressure right now as she continues filming her sitcom cameo for How I Met Your Mother.

But it’s OK, because Britney Spears seems to be coping well at her new job. That’s partly because her How I Met Your Mother co-stars are being somewhat effusive with their praise for her, and partly because Britney Spears clearly doesn’t have the self-awareness to realise that every last frame of her cameo is going to be scrutinised for signs of mental illness until it makes the Zapruder film look like a YouTube video of a kitten in a mug.

Hecklergigs: Stars @ Koko, London 29/1

by Matthew Laidlow

It wasn’t so long ago that we were banging on about Stars in our MySpace Trawl feature. Whilst we’d like to think that it inspired somebody to invest in their music, we couldn’t be quite sure. No banners were on prominent display with slogans such as “Hecklerspray brought us here” and “honk if you like hecklerspray”.

Still you can’t have everything you want in life, but regardless of our own potential ego-boosting propaganda of this band not being recognised, the venue was still rammed to capacity. For those who had never been to the place before, it was a unique little venue. The theatre-style layout presented the perfect viewing platform from nearly every angle. Though if you wanted to be packed in close with your fellow gig-goer, the chance was still there.

MySpace Trawl – Stars

by Matthew Laidlow

We like Stars a lot.

Not only do they have lyrics that almost tell some sort of narrative and paint pretty pictures in our mind, but they’ve thankfully go the right kind of vocalist to transfer this over to the audience as well. Not once, but twice. Torquil Campbell and Amy Millan have the sort of mesmerising voices that we could easily listen to all night. Their mix of dark moody electronics combined with an uncomplicated backdrop of indie is simple and oh so effective.
