Stalking is so yesterday.  Even passive stalking is passe.

The 'hobby du jour' is now being a groupie!

:-)

I am not sure what sort of day  I have had today...

After a much needed sleep in (always good) I decide that I need to go on a reconnaissance mission out to Motherwell to find the bar where Wilburnsilver are playing next weekend.  I wanted to check out exactly where it was, what the parking situation was and what kind of a pub it was. Motherwell is ( Read more... )

I have just come in (well about 15 mintues ago) from seeing Black Stone Cherry, a quartet of precocious upstarts from Kentucky who fancy themselves as a rock band...

OH MAN HOW GOOD WERE THEY?!

OK I admit I was already a bit of a fan but they really were fantastic.  Slick, tight with a great live sound and still young enough to be getting that "oh ( Read more... )

I have to stop spending money that I simply do not have...

Tonight I went out to see Michael Hargan again and on the bill were two other singer songwriters - Ann Scott (opening act) and Mark Geary (headlining). It was an "intimate" gig in a narrow little venue. All three of them performed solo - no backing band, just their guitars.  It was a really ( Read more... )

OK so I have been playing too much Oblivion.  You knew it would happen, I knew it would happen so don't any of you pretend to be surprised here.

I have, however, managed to get to Bean Scene a couple of times to do a spot of writing (only to be disappointed at the lack of curly haired barista action) and tomorrow I am dragging myself into town to ( Read more... )

Tomorrow I am away for a week to do yet another England Tour. I suspect that this one might be the last one for a little while and I have a packed schedule...

But before I go a quick summary of the last few days.

I had a couple of awful nights at work on Sat and Sun night but I did have very pleasant chat to Mr Barista on Sun morning as I called in ( Read more... )

Last night's performers at Bean Scene were Bellingham and Robinson. I was able to wander down and catch their set last night before I had to go to work.  It was and acoustic set and they are a fairly tight duo. I did like their songs but I also think it would be interesting to see what a band could do with a few of them...

But...  I don't know if it ( Read more... )

Finally I have received a reply from wilburnsilver and will be posting them a cheque tomorrow for a copy of their CD.

I can no longer complain about the slugs in my kitchen as tonight I left some chocolate out for them to see if they liked it.

I suck at dating.

I have managed to pre-register for the Led Zepplin gig in November. If you want to pre- ( Read more... )

 I really wish had purchased the Wilburnsilver album at the gig I went to a few weeks ago...

Guess I will just have to go and see them again!

The STEMS are playing the Leopold next Friday....

and they are pre releasing a new album there...

and I cannot make it!

Seriously upset. *growl*

(I guess that's what you get for moving to the other side of the world though huh?)
