CB suggested that Interrobang Cartel might one day record a song named Walking With Woodlice:

On Mon, 5 May 2003 12:31:29 +0100, "Paddy Smith" <pjsmith40 at hotmail.com> had the unmitigated audacity to say:
Just found this - the BBC have apparently been leaked the tracklisting from the new Interrobang Cartel double flexidisc album:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/2996793.stm

Does 'Rules of Naked Petanque' signify a prog-rock change of direction for the combo? It sounds ominously like a high-concept (i.e. gatefold) Yes pastiche. Whereas 'Static Caravan Fan Club' is surely a spin-off solo project for a disaffected marimba player.

Nah, man, the way I figure it, this has fallen through a wormhole. Yes, in a vision unnervingly Wyld-Stalyn-like, we can see the future of Interrobang Cartel in the track-listing of this album - recorded in 2008 by several "old-timers" in tribute to the genius of the Cartel.

As near as I can figure it:

  1. Walking With Woodlice - Interrobang Cartel (previously unreleased)
  2. Sausage Calories - Chemical Brothers
  3. Monkey Origami - Supergrass (or possibly Ash)
  4. Queen's Blue Peter Badges - Blur
  5. Black Pudding Throwing - Oasis
  6. Hedgehog Houses - Beck
  7. Ham Sandwich Digestion - The Mamas And The Papas (reformation)
  8. Rules Of Naked Petanque - Stephen Malkmus
  9. Love Of Stones - Black Crowes
  10. UK Places With 'Z' In The Name - They Might Be Giants
  11. How To Be A Texas Ranger - R.E.M.
  12. Tropical Fish Euthanasia - Radiohead
  13. Virtual Geese Honking - Squarepusher
  14. Zebra Races - Flaming Lips
  15. Walking Stick Making - Johnny Cash
  16. Zoo Heaven - The Avalanches
  17. Static Caravan Fan Club - Godspeed You! Black Emperor
  18. Washing Crystal Balls - David Bowie
  19. Hedgerow Hypothesis - King Crimson
  20. Staffordshire Bull Terrier Portraits - XTC
Of course, my crystal ball may not be very clear.... hey, that gives me an idea for a song!

Now, if we refuse to write any of these songs, will we distort the fabric of time and space? Are such time-travel paradoxes resolvable? Is the plural of paradox paradoxes? Discuss.

Love,
Casey B
