Went to see an australian group called the cat empire on friday night. They were playing @ shepherds bush empire & were brill! It takes alot for me to go to a gig of a group i dont know and dance as much as i did! It was dead catchy stuff! Its hard to put them into genre cos they had a drummer, someone playing the double bass & a bass guitar, a keyboard player, a guy playing the trumpet & singing, another guy singing & playing the bongos & someone on the decks! I went with cath & sarah & some of their mates & we all had a great time! :-) Yesterday i went to the tate modern to have a look around. Id not been for a while so it was good cos the displays had changed quite alot. One particular piece i could have watched all day was by Christian marclay & was called video quartet. Hed got 4 huge screens & put together clips of noises from films then played them all together & they sounded really good! Definately worth a look @! Argh i was just...

Are you ready to rock and or roll?!

Im writing this on the bus back to london after a weekend in lufbra with the gang. Not sure if theres been an accident or its road works but we aint going anywhere fast so i thought id do my blog! It was cool to catch up with everyone cos id not been in lufbra since november time i think. It was arf, mattay, tricky, sam, anna, dave, john, niall & sarah think thats it sorry if i missed you out! :-S on the friday night we decided to try a rocky club called mosh in Leics & it was ace, a really cool venue! Had a few drinks in the orange tree first where i bumped into will from art college who i aint seen since i was 16 & obsessed with steps! Hehe. When we got into mosh we headed downstairs into the gaudi bar & it was all really cool & gothic looking & they played lots of old rock stuff that we sang along to & we had a good jump around to madness! There wasnt as much dancing going on as i was expecting but we were all really tired & sat & caught up wit...

But the winners were Ktp, dave & arf! We didnt really do much more over the weekend we just relaxed. Spent saturday in town & wiv dan & nelson then made our way to comedy club. Its usually really good but this time wasnt really that great. The healine act was funny, he was the warm up guy from never mind the buzzcocks but cos the 1st guy was so bad he never really got our attention back! After the 1st bloke failed miserably the compaire came back on & said he'd done a very brave thing by coming on stage & not telling any jokes! Yoink Hehe. Today i slept for most of it. Did some work then learnt how 2 play poker, so watch out ill be a pro in no time! :-S :-P Hehe. Have 2 see about that one i think! Wud be a cool game 2 play but im not great @ tactics! Im not very tictacticle as a certain moose used 2 say! So here i am, on the bus that still aint goin anywhere fast hoping i reach my bed soon! Thanks 2 everyone that came up this weekend, it was ace! :-) X ...

wow two posts in two days! dont get too excited! :P had a really good night last night. went to the borderline just of tottenham court road for a gig with sook, his missus and adam and it was brill. the venue was really nice. fairly small but stupidly hot - think echos on a saturday night in the middle of summer! hmm!! the first support act was called beans on toast ( www.myspace.com/sexdrugspolitics ) and he was so good! he was a bit short so had to stand on a chair while playing so everyone could see him! bless! his lyrics to his songs were pretty good! check out the song 'you look alot fitter on your myspace page!! genius! hehe. the second group were called dive dive ( www.myspace.com/divedive ) they were really good on stage and very energetic, not really got much to say about these but they were good!! then finally it was time for mister turner, as in frank not niall!! ( www.myspace.com/frankturner ). i didnt really know much, well any, of his songs but it was a reall...

I know, I know I keep saying ill get better at blogging but I really don’t do I?! been out quite a lot recently so not had many nights in to just sit and write my blog and on the days I did stay in I really didn’t feel like blogging, I just felt like sleeping! Right lame excuses out the way ill get on with my post!! :-S Since I last posted it snowed again and it was even better than last time. I decided to walk to work cos I didn’t want to risk the busses and trains being all messed up and it was great fun! The snow was still falling and I made sure I trod on the new clean snow where noone else had walked as much as I can! (Im such a kid!!) I love it when its dry snow and you can hear and feel it crunching beneath your feet! I was grinning all the way to work, its official, snow makes me smile! :-) I even got to wear my platform trainers cos they were the only shoes I had that were fully waterproof, had great grip and kept my trousers dry. They were dead comfy too……till I ...
