賈維斯卡克說:「即使手錶停了,它一天至少還會正確兩次。」而這個世界終於在一九九五年追上他的腳步,因為The Stone Roses 吉他手John Squire 騎單車摔斷鎖骨、搖滾公雞洛史都華又婉拒邀約,成軍將近二十年才以〈Common People〉初嚐成名滋味的Pulp,意外站上英國Glastonbury 音樂節主舞台,由現場八萬人共同見證了Pulp 與雪菲爾同儕們用十餘年寫下的音樂傳奇。

Below is a scan of Taiwan’s biggest broadsheet daily, The China Times 31.10.2011. On the back page of the newspaper is this piece on The Beat Is The Law and Pulp. Spot the English music references amongst the Mandarin text!

The Beat is The Law on Fox News in America!

Thursday, October 13th, 2011

Here’s a clip of Fox 9 News in Minneapolis covering the Sound Unseen Music and Film Festival. Half way through the reporter discusses The Beat Is The Law with the festival organiser.
Its interesting because despite the film being about Pulp, she really likes the socio-political aspect of the film and ends with a shot of a guy collecting money for the miners to keep them off the dole. Its a bit surreal to see Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News showing derelict steel factories, police and protesters protesting about the oppressive regime of The Iron Lady herself, Margaret Thatcher, being beamed to homes across what is a large population in Minneapolis at breakfast time!
The film is screening tonight at 9pm, Trylon Cinema, Sound Unseen

M.A. Listens in on ‘Sound Unseen’: MyFoxTWINCITIES.com
