I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

Lourenco, I feel that whatever you achieve in cinema will be partially due to my contribution. Even though I was running around in the sunshine while you were quietly sobbing inside. more…

Hey Lourenço,
Good call on the Buenos Aires Film Fest Ads, they were great. Also really impressed with the work you're doing in Sao Paulo and the blogging from there. It sounds really interesting to be dealing with the practicalities of a major film production. How did you fit in time for Eggheads?
All the best,

I suppose hypocritical was the wrong word to use, but it seems a contradiction to me that the government are introducing these new proposals that denigrates those who smoke but at the same time are prepared to take all the taxes from those who spend on tobacco. Why not just ban it if it's in aid of our health? I'm being rhetorical of course, I know more…

I don't think the "sin taxes" are hypocritical, in fact they are the opposite. It would be hypocritical to NOT tax them. But I do think the pendulum is swinging too far towards authoritarianism now. Smoking should remain as legal as it is now and so should drinking, but it is right and fair that smokers should have to do it away from non-smokers. I more…

You've infringed so many trademarks in this post, I expect the corporations will shut down this site (and burn down your house)in a matter of days more…

Apparently it's shutting for good, the djs who own it want to move on to bigger things, plus I'm sure they got a pretty good offer for it.
You're right about the nights though, Bugged Out! used to be at Fabric so I'm sure it'll find a new home. I heard about Durrr going to Matter as well. more…

I'm surprised they don't mention lack of trade. When the dance scene started dying a few years back when guitar music made a comeback, clubs were closing in droves. The heady heights of the late 90s dance scene are long gone, sadly.

the end is shutting? no way! just for refurb surely? clubs like that constanlty have last nights, kind of like the Rolling Stones...
Still, more'll pop up in their place, and the important thing is the events that survive (The End did Bugged Out! and Durrr ) which will probably simply relocate.
I think Durrr is moving t more…
