Daddy would you like some sausage?
Hallo.
SOOOOO, my birthday was now fucking ages ago but twas a pretty good one. gig at the 13th note went way better than expected. It was all pretty makeshift cause the singer from mummy short arms, james, couldn't make it, and their new drummer was in fuckin argentina or something, SO Johnboy filled in on vocals and the drummer in his other band, Suede Denim Secret Police, CJ, played drums. And they pulled it off really fucking well! which was nice.
Our set was pretty guid i think, I was pished when i was playing and can't really remember an awful lot of it BUT i enjoyed it etc. Went to the cathouse afterwards and have absolutely no memory of it.
Seriously can't be bothered documenting my life from the past month and a bit, so I'll start with Halloween last tuesday i spose.
Went up to pete's dressed in a dashing suit and tophat and Got The Beers In before leaving to pick folk up from the Basement so we could go to Halloween Rev. everyone was taking ages to leave so me and pete left and got a spot in the queue which was approximately 876256 miles long. skipped in with some dude pete knew, but the others weren't so lucky unfortunately so it ended up just me and whitey going. Met sue and jamie fear and a bunch of others inside. was just awright really, took fucking years to get served at the bar. i wore a dressing gown at some point. left with jamie fear and others to go to some party where we found doug, finlay, clannie etc. only memory is lifting weights and abusing a passed out Jamie as usual. Decided to bail at 3ish.
Did absolutley nothing on wednesday daywise but that night i went and met jamie again and we went to the solid for a couple pints before going to see Vader at the Soundhaus. on the way there we saw some mad Palestinian protesters outside the Marriot hotel which was weird. Gig was pretty good, only really liked one of the support bands tbh and it was pretty annoying cause none of them seemed to have soundchecked so they had to do it for like 20 minutes before playing. Vader were well good, hadn't heard a helluva lot of their stuff but they were pure good like. Caught their singers plectrum as well. woo! wanderooed home.
Uni and shit on thursday THEN at night i went and met sue and then met calum and greg at the solid for pre-Unholy Alliance drinkies. Got a text from jamie at like 7.30 saying I'd missed Children of Bodom which was met with extreme RAGE and anger. arrived during Lamb of God then met jamie, katie t and Irish Tom from Download. Watched In Flames who were well good and then it wasn't too long until Slayer came on. Was fucking insane, i was knackered after about 3 songs and somehow ended up right at the front. two dudes had a proper fight at one point which a bunch of bald guys had to break up, and there was a mini-crush during Angel Of Death. was fucking ace though, played tonnes of good shiiit and was amazing to finally see them and stuff. after waiting 23 hours in the cloakroom queue and buying bootleg merch from a pure Del Boy, i walked sue back to the west end where she taxi'd it up and i did more wandering home.
Arse all on Friday probably.
Saturday- went and met katie, jack, jonny, rossy, andy, pete at the Rock! it was a bit of a Hyndland school reunion actually cause there quite a few old 5th years there AND, most importantly, Mr Thomson was there!!!! spoke to him and everything, he's still a pure legend. Went to the QM which was rather nice. Andy bought a fucking horrible Black Pudding Supper afterwards. he ditched it cause it was boke material and got some delectable chicken pakora from Aladdins which we ate on an upturned fridge. it was most lovely.
Sunday- After work i was meant to go meet jonny and peeps "at 9.30" so we could watch the fireworks at Hughenden. thought this seemed a bit late but thought nothing of it until about 8ish when Jonny txtd me saying he mistyped the previous txt and it was actually 6.30 i was meant to meet them and the show was about to start :|
SO i missed the fireworks due to a syntax error but went and joined them at the rock afterwards to ease the pain. and it was nice.
Yesterday- in for one whole hour at 2 o'clock. hard times.
Today- the usual script reallly. should probably be doing some work or something, but the guilt of neglecting my journal proved too much and i simply had to update it. i watched freddy got fingered tonight. Pies.
Lots of salt, vinegar, black pudding and Soya Sauce.
