(This has more than likely been posted here before, but being redundant in Julian's case doesn't hurt).

Saw this photo on Flickr. It pretty much just looks like him today, but with shorter hair. He's so pretty. |

(For those who were waiting on Julian's Babelgum page, the video was actually up, just they never linked to it...I just messed around with the web address. Darn them! :P)
Someone should totally make icons/gifs out of this :(

I don't think it's been posted already... (and sorry if it has)
And according to Band Weblogs we will be able to watch the whole video tomorrow:
Exclusive first showing of the new video from Julian Casablancas and extra behind the scenes footage launches ONLY on Babelgum Independent web and mobile video content platform Babelgum is pleased to announce the exclusive premiere of the video for “11th Dimension”, the first single from Julian Casablancas debut solo album ‘Phrazes for the Young’ on Wednesday 23rd December. A teaser for the video is available to view on Babelgum from today! A four and a half minute journey through different time periods and an alternate dimension, the video was directed by Warren Fu, based on a concept by Casablancas. The premise is loosely inspired by Bruce Lee’s Game of Death, in which the protagonist must face a unique moral dilemma in each setting, but is essentially about the subconscious mind, tying in thematic elements from ‘Phrazes For The Young’. Fu first teamed up with Casablancas on the acclaimed alternate video for The Strokes “You Only Live Once”. All the artwork for and around Phrazes for the Young (including the ‘11th Dimension’ video) is a culmination of a year long collaboration between Casablancas and Fu, a former Lucasfilm art director. In addition to this highly anticipated video, viewers will be able to watch extra special behind the scenes footage, only on Babelgum. A true festive treat for all! Phrazes for the Young was released through Cult Records/Rough Trade on November 2nd. Featuring eight brand new songs written by Julian Casablancas, the album was recorded over the last 12 months with studio work completed in Los Angeles, New York City and Nebraska and produced by Jason Lader with additional production by Mike Mogis. |

This is the third and final prompts post. You may post the same prompts as last week, or you may use new ones. Here's a reminder of the rules:
* You post prompts and other people write drabbles * A drabble is generally at least 100 words but please don't be limited by this * Prompts can be any genre at all * Prompts should include one of what we might term Libsetc, but ah well it is Christmas so maybe if they're in the general 'indie' vicinity I'll let you get away with it * Prompts can be as specific or as general as you'd like * Anonymous posting is enabled, so you can post prompts anonymously, say if you want a fic where Carl beats the crap out of Peter or something. * You can also post drabbles anonymously. If you don't know how to do this, paste your fic into the comment box but then before you click 'post comment', click 'more options' instead, and it's one of the options in there * Fics/prompts needn't be Christmas/winter related, but of course they can be if you'd like * If you think your fic is too long for a comments box, post it as a new post in the community * If you don't want to do this because maybe you did write a fic where Carl beats the crap out of Peter, email it to us at albionstocking@gmail.com and we'll use the sock puppet to post it to the comm. * If you want to watch every comment on this post, click the drawing pin icon above my writing and it subscribes you to the comments. It says 'track this' when you hover on it. * This is a give and take thing. If you all request it won't work. Anyone can write a drabble, seriously. Give and take. It's nice. * Play nice. Anon comments are on, but I will be monitoring. If anyone gets any negative comments they'd like removing, let us know, okay. * Any other questions? Please do reply here, anonymously or not.
Last week, 1daftpunk wrote a really long fic that he (I think? Apologies if not, let me know and I'll change) posted in two parts on the comm here and here. calli_thaala still really wants this. I will try to fulfil a few prompts next week. Maybe you'll all join me? |

Genre: Christmas Fic/Dr. Who crossover (science-fiction/time travel) Prompt: suggested by the lovely enharmonies (Dr Who saves Peter and/or Carl, The Doctor is not a reincarnated version of Peter.) Rating: R (violence, drug references, m/m sexual references (non-explicit), language) This was originally written for rebecca_star's Christmas fiction prompts post. It was drafted there in sections and was edited by enharmonies to create these posts. This should make the story a whole lot easier to read.
Part One Teaser: They turned me into a nymph... a mermaid! Happy Christmas everyone!

Just back from Julian's final European show of the year and it was excellent he was on fine form and bantering a lot with the crowd ♥
A few things...
Some photos from wireimage of the Leeds Met Uni Gig.
Julian has received the XFM Inspiration Award, only the second artist to receiver it after legendary Mick Jones of The Clash
This prestigious award recognises the fact that Julian led the most important band of the decade – The Strokes kicked guitar music into the 21st Century, made bands cool again and got girls back onto indie dance floors. For that, all of us at Xfm, are VERY grateful {Source}
A Brief, fun interview with Julian in this weeks NME

And finally Julian is on Lauren Laverne's show tomorrow BBC Radio 6 sometime between 10:00-13:00. People can listen live via this link |
