Why the name

“What on earth is ‘arcoarena’?” I hear you say – or at least I might if you cared.

Here’s why…….

There is an American band called Cake. They do various good things and most people who have heard them tend to say this -

‘Have you heard the cover of ‘I Will Survive’ that they did – it’s really cool isn’t it’

That is generally all people know. This isn’t however me complaing that nobody appreciates my taste in music (that would make it a blog entry).

Cake’s 4th, and most recent, album (as of Jan 04) is called Comfort Eagle. On Comfort Eagle there’s a track called Arcoarena. The track on the album is actually an instrumental, however if one buys the ‘Short Skirt/Long Jacket’ single (which was the first single released for that album and much to my surprise it was played at least twice on Radio 1) there is a vocal version of the track. Hence the tag line – Why walk in circles, it’s one of the lyrics on the track. I was going to use Welcome to the kings palce but I thought that would be a bit egotistical for me, I may use it at some point but not quite yet.
