Buses, and how they suck...

[kneeshooter]

Time for my weekly update - I know I used to more regular but I guess it's these army biscuits I keep eating.

After last Friday morning's excitment it was off to Eddies, which despite the company of a dark-cloud roughly the same shape as pax_draconis, was a good night. Barrie seemed to have borrowed my CD collection and was doing his best to encorage the invasion of Poland with something like five Rammstein tracks in three hours. From what I remember anyway ~cough~.

I was plesantly drunk, which was nice, then entrusted the car to ant_girl and proceeded to waste the day as much as possible. I managed to disappoint quondam by refusing to go out a third night in a row (mainly because I felt head-coldy and tired than being a lightweight) and the car finally returned after twelve. I was getting slightly worried, but when the explanation became clear I was simultaneously worried about where my paperwork was and relieved.

Sunday included King Arthur (Epic by numbers, low on the wailing woman soundtrack for a change but with some nice kit), and the Levellers (gosh, you're looking old now - agit-pop-light).

I think there have been a couple of days since then - but nothing of note has happened in them.

And that's it. Plenty of things to do today, my head's still a bit of a mess and some gigs to arrange for next week... and maybe I should try Phil @ Alternative London again. Absolution tomorrow probably. It will be an interesting evening, but mainly for other reasons.

[EDIT: Forgot the whole incident that was the point to the title post. Didn't enjoy a bus journey yesterday - someone lit up, I asked them to stop, got verbal, informed driver who ignored it. No wonder buses are no-go areas upstairs. Complaint sent to bus company.]

~blink~ How are you involved in this unholy mess esteemed publication? (For which I do the proof reading when they actually get around to sending things to me.)

~hugs~ for the discontented-ness, if wanted.

We had a very brief email conversation about photography at one point - and then played telephone-tennis missing each other.

I can't remember whose turn it is to try next - but he seems like a hard man to find, with an ability to call me when I can't take the call (which isn't all that often at the moment).

He's usually quite good at getting e-mail back to me - do you want me to try on your behalf, or are you not that bothered really?

Please try - I'm still interested in contributing. Thanks :-)

I don't think it counts when you have to lean out of the window and shout across the street.... ;p

I had no idea the Levellers were still going. Or indeed many of the bands you have mentioned in your journal of late. Are you dwelling in the Land of Dead Bands or am I just woefully out of touch with the world of music?

It just shows how old my tastes are - and it seems to be that a lot of rock stars are running out of money so are being forced to tour again to keep up their coke habits (or Greenpeace subscriptions as appropriate).

Carry a portable fire-extinguisher and use it when you see an open flame...
