"I'm just sorry you didn't include your Weekly writings in with the "Articles" links :`-( "
Also in the works (note the links are all horribly out of date, so don't be offended edward, dee etc.)
I like that this page gives ILX a chance to micro-manage my publishing...

JON CARTER is spinning at, er, FAMOUS at the qbh next week. would I be advised to brave the haircut house crowd to see the man in action?
yrs,

Haven't ever seen Jon Carter play live - and haven't been to Famous for that matter - so can't say for sure. Carter's new Chinese Laundry mix looks like it might be good but it also looks very safe, so I'm not sure if you'll hear anything you wouldn't hear by going to any random electro/tech/house night. This is the tracklisting:
1 Trentemoller - Beta Boy 2 Sharon Philips - Want 2 Need 2 (Trentemoller remix) 3 Ame, Derrick Carter And Friends - Where We At 4 Trevor Loveys - Legwarmer 5 Roysksopp - Only This Moment (Alan Braxe and Fred Falke Remix) 6 John Starlight - Shadowbreaker (Boys Noize Mix) 7 Smitty vs John Kelley Feat. Raya - Universal Love Vibration (Angel Alanis Mix) 8 Darkmountaingroup - Lose Control (Main Mix) 9 Peter Rauhofer - Believe In Me 10 Jon Carter Feat. Patra - How Do You Love? (JC's 06 Rerub) 11 Azzido Da Bass - Lonely By Your Side (Play Paul Inst. Mix) 12 Ramsay - Shake That Thing (Max Graham Throwdown Mix) 13 Christopher & Raphael Just - Popper (Shinichi Osawa Distortion Disco Edit)
As for Famous, I never have a problem with dancefloor crowds on the assumption that one doesn't feel physically threatened, and we can safely assume that won't be the case here! I can't really complain about haircut house types anyway b/c I basically look like a haircut house denizen who doesn't go to enough effort slash doesn't spend enough money on clothes.

This seems like as good a thread as any in which to relay some news. Probably more suited to ILE, but at least this thread is more likely to attract the actually interested rather than be blatantly self-aggrandising.
Anyway, since I spend far too much time here it's probably a good idea for me to let you all know that I won't be around for a while, probably about a month.
After a month-just-gone of increasingly severe headaches, this week I was diagnosed with an impressively large, but hopefully benign, brain tumor lodged in my cerebellum behind my right ear.
I'm having this removed on Monday, in what will hopefully be a fairly straightforward operation - the tumor is fairly close to the skull so the surgery will be on the less invasive side of things.
All things being equal I can expect to be fully recovered in about two months. If worse scenarios move from faint possibility to unavoidable reality I will certainly let people know, but there doesn't appear to be any reason to panic at this stage - I've met with my neurosurgeon and the signs are all fairly good in this case.
I will be missing my pontification soap-box horribly I'm sure, not to mention all of you. Look after yourselves. Perhaps listen to music you suspect I would approve of.

omg please get well Tim, good luck with it all. will miss your critical science-droppage and 2step mp3s in the meantime. take it easy.

Hi Tim - good luck with everything, like everyone else I'm thinking good thoughts and hope to see you back on your Balearic soapbox as quickly as possible.

wait, what if they remove the tumor and you can no longer appreciate throbbing basslines!!! it could happen you know. well, it's all for the best. :))))
― scott seward, Saturday, 22 December 2007 20:48 (sixteen years ago) link
get well soon and feel better tim!! you are absolutely one of the best and most interesting posters on ILM and will be missed very much.

Oh my god.. I hope you recover well and this doesn't develop into something more serious.
― The Reverend, Saturday, 22 December 2007 21:49 (sixteen years ago) link
jesus...Tim I am so shocked to hear this. You are still the guru as regards music writing as far as I'm concerned, plus you somehow manage to seem an extremely friendly and polite person in the process....
I really hope that this all goes well and you are fighting fit soon. Don't rush anything and keep us posted.
Will be hoping this is all okay over the holidays.
Plus, what Andy said about care packages...
― Ronan, Saturday, 22 December 2007 21:54 (sixteen years ago) link
My sister was just diagnosed with the same situation last week and even though the tumor is benign it still has rattled our family, and I hope that you have immediate loved ones to get you through this. I wish you the best in your recovery, positive thoughts all round!
― oscar, Saturday, 22 December 2007 22:38 (sixteen years ago) link
Very best wishes, Tim - take care.
― Stevie T, Saturday, 22 December 2007 22:42 (sixteen years ago) link
tim, i hope your tumor is indeed benign, and that the surgery is successful! we will miss you. take care of yourself.

(I want to add, I always enjoy your posts when I see them, although I probably miss most of them since I don't keep up with dahnce and the like. So even though I don't end up engaging your comments too often, you're one of my favorite posters on ILM.)
― Rockist Scientist, Saturday, 22 December 2007 22:51 (sixteen years ago) link
Crazy news, Tim -- my best to you and yours. I'm sure it'll go well.

It's good that you're not panicking now, Tim. And of course, my best to you. I'm hoping this will be trivial in the end.
It was great hanging out with you and the Melbourne crew the brief time I had! :)
