I don't want to explain lol. I was loosely basing it around the original meaning though - see here >>> http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/hoist%20by%20your%20own%20petard.html

Right, here goes, my dignity down the toilet in the name of music lol;

This is the first time I've ever bothered trying to record Streets, and it's using a 'live' backing track from Slane, and I always fuck it up lol. So, warts and all, here you all are

This one is the first time I've managed to record myself on my LP since I got it, tis a version of UTEOTW in Gb (i.e. á la ZooTV + PopMart era), and considering I've got one of the cheapest setups known to man (a pic will be posted in the next few days of it so you can all see what I mean lol) I'm quite chuffed with the tone/patch I figured out for it. Ok, again, this is a shoddy attempt but I can't be arsed to do another one right now and nor is it possible considering it's half 9 and both parents are in the vicinity and I like my life lol.
