Better Later than never

There are going to be several good acts tonight on Later... With Jools Holland; Arctic Monkeys, CSS and The Hold Steady. Not too shabby!

I was in a chain record store yesterday and I found it kinda weird that the excellent CSS and Hold Steady albums were being prominently displayed in the 'new releases' section. Both bands have been hard at work for what seems like ages, building on their reputations, gig after gig. Now, with their albums being re-released and the Jool's TV appearance, it looks like all that sweat and booze might have finally paid off!
