Di Re #3 – Mod Roc and Roll
A few weeks ago, Tom had this idea of making a sculpture out of my head. One thing led to another and now we’re on a mission to make death masks out of modroc, which is loads of fun. Not sure what they’re gonna be used for yet, but I’m sure they’ll come in handy. Here’s a picture Jenny Hardcore took whilst Tom was slapping wet strips of cement onto my face. The process is great, however, trying to sit still for a further 15 minutes is proving very difficult!
Since then, creative juices have gotten flowing. After questioning my intentions, the Tool Factory let me purchase a fresh saw. After searching through almost every skip and back alley in Chatham Town, I found myself found a nice bit of rotten wood. Come the evening, with the assistance of a child, a few blades, a stencil, and a tin of white and black paint, a huge ‘Lupen Crook’ sign had been unveiled. Maybe for use during photo shoots, installations, gigs or I might just no-more-nails it to some random wall around town. Anyway, t’was a good day for creation and general nonsense. More to come.

i’m in Oxford at th mo visiting my brother (for my birthday weekend!) and spreading the lupen love, it fucks me up how many people haven’t heard of you so i tell them to check you straight out of course. mad one with the facemasks, looks like something out of the phantom and the opera!creeepyy..glad to hear your doing festivals too… i will damn sure make it to one of your gigs this summer man, preferably in a smaller venue so i could possibly say hi 
peace,love and strums as ever x
Nice one man. Yeah, it’ll be good to see ya over the summer. Whatever gig it may be, big or small, give us a shout before hand, we’ll hook up for a chat innit. x
the no more nails way sounds best to me. but where? (trying very hard to remember name checked places in the crooked verse)

Bob phoned me from Germany today, reckoned somewhere along the Medway to London train line. All suggestions welcome people, a little community service never hurt anyone!
How about the mosque in Chatham town?
“Ode To Fucking Everyone”
you could hang out in central london, completely naked, with the sign covering your bum. Or get someone else do to do it.
Maybe we can all take it in turn lol
Mr Crook – now Silvia’s said that, you should really blog that photo idea sketch you did a few weeks ago…
What, the naked messiah idea? Ha, I’ve a cunning plan to get you back for mentioning it, remember that passport photo you gave me!
I put forward The MRS for the the naked street corner installation. Any other takers?
Do your worst, fucker. I’ve got to get over this tedious camera-shy bashfulness at some point, might as well be now.
Will sound out The MRS on this dubious honour tomorrow.
you should stick in underneath the word “CHATHAM” at those station signs. inbetween chatham and the sign stick the words “home of”. Mark your terrority man. I’ve probably drunken written the words “the murderbirds will eat your fucking soul” somewhere in canterbury i just can’t remember where
