- Ryan Adams’ nose
it’s Friday, but it’s never to late to appreciate!
I definitely have an, uh, “aesthetic interest” in noses, and DRA’s probably makes my top ten. -sam

being completely completely objective, I adore NC’s photos …the familiar content is just a bonus! I’d forgotten he had a flickr, actually, and it was nice to re-visit and see new additions. :]
& massive apologies to whomever’s tumblr I found the original link on. I closed a tab and couldn’t find it again to reblog. :/ -sam

Ryan Song of the Day #3
This played on the way home just after I left Huddersfield. I got home in pouring rain. I’ve spent the afternoon reading. It’s been an alright kind of day so far.
Well, I saw our time come And I saw our time go like a fog in the lights Out on the blackening ocean side

In the next couple of weeks we’ll have introduction posts from all four of us - something Sam, Laura and I have talked about since we started this, but haven’t got around to. Hopefully we...

Ryan Song of the Day #2
Today’s song is one of my absolute favourites. I like to sing it loudly around the house and irritate my husband. It played on the way home, right before I stepped off the train on to the sunny platform to the strains of Frank Turner in my ears.
Where do you go when you’re lonely Where do you go when you’re blue Where do you go when you’re lonely I’ll follow you ...
A little provocative & a little arrogant..
Reporter: You can be a little arrogant.
Ryan Adams: Well, I wasn't arrogant in the beginning; I was naive. I didn't know to not speak about my music like I totally believed in it. But what's wrong with being a little provocative and a little arrogant? The Ghostbusters were like that. What did Bill Murray's character say about capturing the green ghost? "We came, we saw, we kicked its ass."
