Cover story: What have I done? ‘The fact that I’m guest editor of The List is purely thanks to the digital
age. My new book was published last Friday, and I’ve been doing the 56 KASABIAN usual round of interviews that go along with it. On top of that there was
the opening of my play about the Munchkins, which premiered in Dublin 65 Theatre on Monday. So. in between flying from Dublin to London, I’ve helped put 66 ROUND TABLE this magazine together. I spent an hour face to face with Will Self in DISCUSSION London, and had a great chat with author Doug Johnstone about his new ,
book. But I also spent ages chasing an interview with my old pal Jonny 83 Vlsual Art Lee-Miller: he was in Los Angeles. l was in Dublin Airport. It was our only 84 GIRLPOWER AND chance of a conversation about his new film . . . and we couldn’t get BOYHOOD through. But I hope you like the issue, even without him. In each section I’ve , recommended my favourite Festival events of the week, and I can’t wait for my 89 CIUDS
own event on 12 August. Hope to see you there.’ Irvine Welsh 89 DJ YODA Highlights 93 Escape
