Staying In vs Going Out

Just contemplating whether to go out and drink beer some sort of BEAR themed evening with chum MJ Hibbett at the Bull and Gate or stay in with Clare and watch some films she's got in, Ocean's Eleven and Meet The Parents. Also currently consuming the ...

Family arrive this evening

Got to find somewhere to entertain sister, brother-in-law and two nephews (aged five and three) on Church Street this evening... Had a sit down Chinese in the end, I forget the name, and I can't find it online... We've had a takeaway from there befor...

Five reasons not to believe "five reasons not to buy an IPOD"

New Year's Eve is officially next year

Fixed up the "next week / previous week" links for the Barfly calendar, it works nicely and even knows that because Barfly like their weeks to start on the Monday, that this year December 31st is in week 1 of 2004, see it working here......

It's been a week

Time to mention the bus again, the 106 is back on track, not being diverted via Stoke Newington Church Street and so on, got me into work a bit too quick today... further investigations into Folkestone Metronome reveal that Zodiac Mindwarp and Wolfsb...

A full evening

Hibbett's gig at the 12 Bar was ace last night, though as is typical with gigging venues, the booze was sadly lacking, Eagle Smooth is not my favourite brew by a long shot. BUT, the performance itself was ace, he played more of the funny songs, which...

Tattoo sleeves

Cool, no need to go under the needle again...

Never mind Belle-de-jour

Metro today has an interview with and picture of Major James Buffy-Maun, the London media set are going fictional character crazy at the moment. It would be wrong to suggest all the letters in Metro are made up, I believe the majority of people reall...

Bandwidth thievery

Just stopped a cheeky begger from ripping content from one of my sites, one person was responsible for four times as many hits on the site as everyone else, just so they could archive my content on their site. A bit rude.

Validation, that's what you need...

Just curious if this site validates... Unlikely I'd have thought.

Q Magazine's best gigs ever

RE: Q Magazine's best gigs ever

The Darkness at Hammersmith would def make it into mine, but as you say, that was as much about being there in a big group. Others I'd say would be: Beta Band at the Astoria; Primal Scream at Brix Academy (with Death in Vegas supporting); Radiohead's...

Leather sleeve?

Was this the Carling "Homecoming" type event?

Madonna

Plus Hue & Cry and The Bhundu Boys, but not the rumoured Wet Wet Wet. My first concert, went with a friend from school and some friends of his dad. Sounds a bit weird now. Got the t-shirt, programme, every bit of junk going......

Blur

Last of a five night residency. Would you adam and eve it PHIL DANIELS showed up!

stellastarr*

plus The Ordinary Boys and The 22s. Looks like everyone was there to see the Ordinary Boys, but I thought they were a bit ordinary... stellastarr were OK, not quite as convincing as on record though.

Nirvana

Revolting Cocks

plus Godflesh and Bomb Everything (AKA) Bomb Disneyland. Got a video of this gig, you can see me stagediving on it.

Steve Coogan

Fairly bland sets of Tony Ferrino and possibly Alan Partridge, but warm up came from newcomer Simon Pegg. Whatever happened to him?

The Montrose Avenue

Matt Everitt of Menswear was in the band, this was the height of girly indie, there were tiaras, fairy wings, and even rollerskates in the crowd.
