"It’s clear from all of the protest activity that
there’s been a change in values—I just hope
that young women are becoming more scepti-

“With the larger conventions you also get more
of the weirdoes, such as one guy in Philadel-
phia who got Roman numerals tattooed on his
penis. Andy tells me in intricate details how his
artist friend got the job done, and in full view of
the rest of the convention.”
Hanging out with ink enthusiasts at the 2013
Icelandic Tattoo Convention.
“I called up Halldór Laxness, and he invited
me to visit him in Mosfellssveit that very after-
noon. Only in Iceland, I thought, can you find a
Nobel Prize winner's telephone number in the
phone directory, ring him up, and then be in-
vited for a visit, all in only a minute or two.”
Visiting Gljúfrasteinn when Halldór was there
to answer the door.

“Well, you know, if I was 16 again I wouldn't re-
ally think [unintelligible]... But you can always
say you're looking at the bastard through rose
coloured glasses.”
We spoke to Mark E. Smith before his return
to Iceland to play at the inaugural ATP Iceland
festival.
