WENDY JAMES IS AS POPULAR AS A PEDOPHILE…

drybaby — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 14:51:54 +0000

(Reminds One Of Those Pedophile Photos Hiding Identities You See In The Press Doesn’t It..?)

This an obviously DRUGGED UP little lady with some of her deejay “friends” this year..

They love her so much they REMOVED their faces from the picture before I posted it..

YOU READ THAT RIGHT…

They deliberately covered up their faces so they wouldn’t be seen with her publically..

Unlike Miss Dopey here they know that being seen COKED UP will damage their career..

As professional Deejays they need visa for foreign countries and don’t want to lose those.

Also of course COCAINE is illegal in their own home country..

And of course the real reason for their COVER-UP..

Being seen with WENDY JAMES could do huge damage to their career.

Can’t blame them for their CAMERA SHYNESS can you..?

(Although I bet you know exactly who they are dontcha Wendy..)

WENDY AND HER FROWNY FRECKLED FACE…(Dec 2009)

WENDY DOESN’T LIKE TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED NOWADAYS…

She is in a teeny tiny bad mood.

(There’s an unexpected shocker..)

Can you see boys and girls..?

WADE CRESCENT STOLE MY FACE…

drybaby — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 19:32:58 +0000

“Wade Crescent Stole My Face..!”

And I want it back..

In the “early” days of DryBaby (about early 2007)..

Just after I “published” the first pictures of myself..

A girl sent me the “Wade” picture above and accused me of actually being him..

(Helping Wendy by “pretending” to be critical of her…if you don’t mind!)

Under the assumed name of “DryBaby”…

I sent her a photocopy of my passport with the above official picture in it..

And explained that my eye colour is light blue in reality..

(The official photo makes them seem brown which they certainly are NOT..)

For some odd reasons she replied it only convinced her more..

Whatyagonnado..?

So now you know.

Oh well..

At least the above montage will be just what Elena Gallen is looking for..

NORWAY,NORWAY,NORWAY,NORWAY,NORWAY,NORWAY,NORWAY..and NORWAY.

Wendy James lives in “fabulous,amazing,exciting” New York…

She pays tax to the U.S government and puts money into the shops and restaurants there..

Most of her (remaining) fans live in England and some countries in mainland Europe..

She promised to play America,Canada,Italy Australia,and Japan..

For months and months prior to this tour..

So obviously she and her “band” (ha,ha) played 7 gigs in Norway..

When it actually came down to it..

Beggars Can’t Be Choosers..

This is what happens when you “tour” the sort of gigs/venues/locations..

Real bands who AREN’T playacting at “Rock Star” have turned down..

And your agent have to get some SUCKERS into or risk losing their small commission..

Wendy took this flyer down from her website the day after the tour ended..

And has been somewhat “vague” about the details of it since (dates,venues,support acts,crowds etc..)

Even going so far as to “suggest” it was MUCH bigger and longer than it actually was as you can clearly see..

ATOMIK POWERED BULLSHIT..

“…Racine is Wendy James’s (formerly of Transvision Vamp) current project.

The band recently completed a sold out European tour with multiple nights in London that received raves across the board…

Additionally, Wendy has been manning turntables from Scandinavia to Spain at a series of cutting edge club nights…”

Raves…Across…The…Board

(Whatdoya mean you don’t remember any Fuckin’ Raves Across Any Fuckin’ Boards..?)

Racine had already called it a day AND shut their site down by the time this was posted on the internet.

Wendy knew that..

So the actual flyer went bye bye..

Just in case you might remember it DIFFERENTLY than Wendy later..

Mr Gregory Foat (Author,Pianist,Member Of The Master Race) relaxes with a female companion in his Man-Wife Percy’s home…*

A little known fact about Greg Foat’s book “Gigolo” last year..

There were originally 11 Chapters to the published instead of the widely reviled 10 chapter opus..

The missing chapter entitled “Tomorrow Belongs To Me” proved too controversial..

Dealing as it does with Mr Foat’s fascination with Nazism and Inter-Race relations..

Lines such as..

“How inferior bitches are getting my pure Aryan sperm inside them..”

“When I cum I salute the Fatherland..”

“Tomorrow Belongs To Me although I’m free on Friday..”

“I refuse to acknowledge the existence of Golders Green..”

“Himmler was a gigolo too..”

“Eva Braun…I’ve had her you know.”

Meant the offending chapter was left out of first run prints of the book..

We Must Never Forget.

Shalom.

* The FAKE website (yep!) which this image comes from was closed down last year for being “too controversial” (no shit!) and is NOT in fact Greg Foat.

He is also not completely bald just yet.

“TRUE CELEBRITY..”

By using an EXACT quote from one of Wendy’s “ridiculously enthusiastic” interviews from Australia last year..

(Already proven to be ludicrously over-estimating her “band” chances as events have proven after Christmas 2008..!)

Then the photo of how she was ACTUALLY being promoted..

It brought back memories of the classic parody movie “SPINAL TAP”..

“..MORE OF THAT MICK JONES INFLUENCE…”

drybaby — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 20:59:15 +0000

Is THIS odd photograph more of that Mick Jones influence too..?

This is something you NEVER read in 2004.

(an “early draft” of the now infamous 2004 “official” Quite Great Press Release…Pete loves his “early drafts”..)

You will recognize certain parts which made it to the “official” P.R release.

The “Mick Jones” and “fellow nyc’ers Big Audio Dynamite” (yep seriously!) references did not..

racine – number one (2004)

the return of wendy james is of course a news worthy issue. the fact that she is returning with an album that most people will never want to admit is as good as it is all makes for the return even more fascinating.

rather than going over the woman’s illustrious past lets jump right into this sparkling new album.

rather than go into some big fancy studio with major label backing and a host of well known producers, which, with current demand for returning 80’s pop stars, you can just see would be a massively easy money option – wendy has chosen a far more interesting route back into the pop worlds collective conscious.

having relocated recently to nyc she formed new bonds with her drum machine and decided to learn every other instrument available to her to create the noises here, including guitar/bass/piano – no computers outside of the beats were used. making everything here all self made and self released as she then decided to form her own label (pia-k recordings), thus avoiding all the usual shark infested waters and maintaining the essential control factor.

for all the discussion and revelations in recent interviews that dr dre and eminem are the creators of the best new sounds the album sounds very traditionally old school indie with a splash of drum machine and subtle synthesizer noises. in fact, after several spins the albums 2 sonic reference points are fellow nyc’ers Joy Zipper and Big Audio Dynamite. there are the sunny uplifting indie guitar sweetness that joy zipper have excelled at in recent times matched against the odd flurry of beatbox programs and laidback guitar lines (hence the Big Audio Dynamite connection).

ok, the album doesn’t jump out and grab you, instead its a subtle beast that creeps up on you in such a warm and pleasant manner that when you realise just how much you have enjoyed the last 40+ minutes you press the start button again just to make sure..

starting off with the uptempo ‘the man’ (with gloriously catchy ‘its so easy’ vocal loop) its obvious that wendy has really learnt how to use her vocal skills, using doubled up vocals she sounds vibrant and completely on form. ‘grease monkey’ is next and is to be the albums first single release. with its throbbing bass synth line this comes over as a fine electro-rock groover, which if given a proper remix job by people who love the original could slay the dancefloor monsters. a great track. sensuous pounding beats and breathless lyrics make this addictive. breaking the style a little with the old broken piano led ‘princess patience blues’ is a lovely little tune that compensates for the slightly annoying screechy vocal loop that permeates through the next track ‘hip hop 156′ that aint hip hop at all, but actually sounds like an old transvision vamp b-side.

the track that really surprised me the most though, has to be ‘w.13th’, with its laid back blue beat ska type bass line and harmonica line like some long lost one dove out take. very brave and kinda cool – it works, just. as do several other tracks throughout, whether it’s the britpop throwaway fun of ‘blond mink mimi’ recalling the days when another woman lead guitar group louise wener’s sleeper were ruling the headlines. somehow creating a weird level of nostalgia for such innocent days. unfortunately though for some, ‘heavy metal dude’ is not a full on industrial ministry-style rock anthem, but more of the slight beats, tight rhythm guitars, punchy pianos and a quality ending involving all sorts of ‘ba-ba-babababa’, beat breakdown and dubbed up guitars –

more of that mick jones influence ?

as expected, moods are mellowed towards the albums end with the orchestrations of ‘cakewalk’ and the downbeat but determined ‘life goes on’ (‘i’ve stood my ground where so many fall’), giving slight insights into wendys obvious intentions.

the level of variety in the instrumentation and production may be a negative for some, but, it does mean that the album has a consistent sound throughout with very little in the way of modern pop music concessions. so, it’s a good job that the songs are as bubbly, sharply focused and melodically strong as they are. for the second album wendy will recruit a whole bunch of nyc musicians to create her sounds live, so i expect that the small, rounded, warm, lo-fi sound that she has created here will be expanded upon – if it works and she still manages to maintain the level of control over the results, as she has done here, remains to be seen, as this album is an obvious indicator of the womans pop music talents. something i suspect will be hard to admit for many ..

a fine proper pop album by a proper pop star.

WENDY USES A FRIEND’S PAINFUL DEATH FOR DESPERATELY NEEDED FREE PUBLICITY…A NEW LOW.

drybaby — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 03:59:09 +0000

DID YOU WRITE TO HER FAMILY AND TELL THEM ABOUT THESE PICTURES OF THEIR DAUGHTER’S GOLD COAT WENDY..DID YOU?

Well it was bound to happen I suppose..

Wendy finally sinks to a new LOW for cheap publicity..

“The Lead Singer Of Transvision Vamp..”

(oh really?..the lead singer of a band who broke up almost 20 years ago?)

“Wendy James wrote us a beautiful letter saying how she really loved her and how she thought she was saintly…

She adored the clothes Cat made for her and really got on with her at the fittings…”

That’ll be the typical “love” that Wendy gives to every body when she wants them to do things for her and like her…

“I love you and you and you and you and you and you and you and you and you and him and her and those and it..”

Thank Goodness “someone” showed them that “Rolling Stones Launch” photo of Wendy wearing the Gold coat and smirking..

(Who could that kind “someone” have been I wonder..?)

And not these more REALISTIC stoned ones..

“YOU’RE ON FIRE..”

(frighteningly prophetic headline to a blog or what..??)

And just when I thought Wendy couldn’t sink any lower..

I would love to say I am suprised.

Sorry To The Girl’s Family For Their Loss.

Hang Your Head In Shame Wendy James.

“THE WORLD OF IMAGINATION IS RIDICULOUSLY FRAGMENTED…”

drybaby — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 16:53:11 +0000

“..Absolutely,I cannot hope to control the creative process in certain areas…At the moment I am making a Graphic Novel and working in fashion…The World Of Imagination is ridiculously fragmented….
Then I was pioneering along with Crystal Castles or House Of Holland in exploiting the phenomenon of “Celebrity” from a creative and provocative viewpoint but the circle of the Fashion World changes at a dizzying rate…

I want to return to themes which are more personal and unknown,less ephemeral…”

You remember “David ‘Lindy’ Lindwall” don’t you..?

He has been one of Wendy’s “Top Friends” since she started her My Space page..

(The people who REALLY reflect her true personality rather than her customers/fans..)

People have written to me many many times asking who he actually is..

(They’ve noticed him there with his chainsaw and stuff..)

Well in place of a full blow “bio”…

Here’s the latest version of his website..

(Yes it IS in black and white…which is so now!)

APRIL IN JULY…

drybaby — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 17:14:02 +0000

April In July…

APRIL 77 RECORDS..

I’ll let them tell you their “CONCEPT”…

1. Are you a clothing brand or a music label?
We are both. Our clothing is music, and music lives on our clothing.

2. What is a single?
A single is the A-side and B-side of the artist of the month.

3. What is a custom artist product?
A custom artist product is an item of clothing or an accessory always related to a specific APRIL77RECORDS artist of the month.
These items will always allow you to download the single from this artist.

4. Can you get pregnant from a toilet seat?
Probably not, but remains questionable.

I am gonna publically kick this fashion/music obsession vibe out of Wendy’s head…

Kick it hard..

Until she bleeds..

WENDY JAMES AND CROSSDRESSER SHOES…

drybaby — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 23:55:09 +0000

WENDY JAMES AND THE “CROSSDRESSER” SHOES…

Wendy’s always had “big” less-than-feminine feet..

It’s always been a problem for her to get the “right sized” shoes and sandals..

Her record label were very keen they were rarely seen in photographs..

When she actually was famous..

Now of course they don’t care who knows..

Like the rest of us..

From this website for odd sized “male” feet..

“…Feminine shoes in men’s sizes 10-15! No need to convert size from male to female!

Made to fit a man’s masculine feet while still looking feminine. Will also fit women with large, hard to fit feet.

Shipped discreetly for your privacy…”

“..Will also fit women with large,hard to fit feet..”

Says it all doesn’t it..?

Now you know.
