Today

Went to Stansted today, which is about a 75 minute drive if the traffic is OK. Don't know what we are doing for the weekend apart from a naming ceremony on Saturday. My Brother (Daddy T) is married to Roxy who is a Gambian. Instead of a Christening Gambians have a naming ceremony and all of the women wear traditional dress. I will be the first one we have been to, so I am looking forward to it. Work is crap as always.

A Photo

Here is a photo of me with Angst. I'm the one with the
short hair!!

The Angst Gig

What a night!! The band were excellent! My number with them went very well,so everyone said anyway. We provided the lights, strobe, laser, smoke etc. Got to bed at 0230 this morning. Up to The Albert Hall to see Pete Townshend and Rachel Fuller tonight. So this weekend we have seen acoustic guitar Friday, Rock Saturday and Poetry Sunday. Very cultural!

A Day Off

Needed today off to catch up on those boring home chores such as paperwork and tidying up. So it isn't really a day off, just a different type of work. Will get a photo up during the week. I must be the oldest Blogger in town at 54. Well not quite. But looking at some of the other Bloggers they are all 30 somethings and less. My brain has not aged since I was 23, just my body (but not that much).

Bloody Traffic

Got back from Norfolk around 2100. Traffic was awful. I think I'm getting too old driving up and back in 24 hours. It's 350 miles round trip and it's a round of meeting people. Went to Sheringham Social Club and saw a duo called Hot Stuff. The girl singer had a very good voice. What a contrast, Angst playing heavy rock in a bikers pub in Hastings on Friday night and then a middle of the road duo in a small social club in a sleepy Norfolk seaside town on Saturday.

Hastings

Drove to Hastings last night (Friday) to watch Angst. They played in a bikers pub so lots of headbanging going on. Once again they were excellent. We are doing the disco at their party next week. What a mix of music that will be!! Heavy rock and YMCA! Awful. But I do get to sing with them. Rehearsal's on Thursday. Off to Norfolk later today until tomorrow. Just got the lighting rig up in the garden for a trial put together as I've never used it before. I'm buying a strobe for next week. Should be good during Highway Star! That's all for now.

Half Way Through The Week

Half way through another week. Had another plaster put on my arm as the other one was loose and uncomfortable. Spent from 1200 'til 1800 interviewing for a Duty Manager. Great fun. Not! PLASA last Sunday was good. Bought a few CDs. Dance tracks etc.. A busy weekend ahead. Just been on Rachel Fullers site and some of the anonymous entries are awful. Bastards!!! Leave them alone.

A Night In

Well, it's a night in tonight watching TV and surfing the web. Up early in the morning to go to PLASA. Going with Daddy T (my Brother) and Roxy (his wife) and Laura (his daughter) the girls are going shopping in Oxford Street while we are at the exhibition. Jill is staying at home. Have got crispy duck and some snacks for our meal this evening.

A Night In

Saturday?

Saturday is drifting by. Had a lazy morning watching MTV and surfing the web. Went for an Indian meal last night, watched a film and got into bed at 0145. Going to Arundel, Sussex later as Jill has some antique dresses she wants to sell. well, they are not antique they are vintage circ 1930s/1940s. Tonight? Don't know yet.

Boring

Have not posted for a few days as not much to tell. Just work, TV and internet. Anyway the weekend is nearly here. Off to PLASA at Earls court on Sunday. PLASA is a sound and light exhibition with lots of 'stuff' for DJs, theatres, concerts etc. Did have a gig on Saturday but it got cancelled. Cannot wait to sing with Angst on 24 Sept. May Karaoke tomorrow night and give Pinball Wizard/Run to the Hills an airing.

The Weekend

The weekend flashed by. The gig was crap. Thirty five people in a large hall. Fifteen of them over sixty five. We didn't stand a chance. Other than that, visitors on Sunday and then back to work today. Life is boring!! Must go as I have to download some Rachel Fuller tracks.

Gig Tonight

Went to see Angst last night. The were blistering as usual although the venue could have been better.
Doing a gig tonight in Sussex, my Brothers going to help me set up due to the plaster on my arm making me a bit of an invalid. Well must get on as I have to get everything ready.

Friday Night

Over the last few months I look forward to Friday nights. It makes the weekend so much longer. A busy weekend it will be. Seeing Angst tonight, a gig tomorrow night (just Disco no Karaoke) then visitors for the day Sunday. Jill thinks that I am sad writing a Blog. Maybe I think I'm sad as well. Oh well it is fun looking at other peoples, especially Rachel Fullers although it is getting a little bit girly.

Car Hunting

So Jill wants to change her car. We go looking this evening and pop in for a meal in a very busy restaurant.
I can see us looking for a few days now. I'm getting used to my arm in plaster. Drove to Heathrow for a meeting and our Turkish customer decided to stay at Heathrow which saved me entertaining him this evening. Time for bed I think.

My Arm and Singing

Well my arm is now in plaster for four weeks. Great!!! Having a quiet night in tonight as off to Heathrow tomorrow for meeting and then back to Gatwick. May have to entertain one of our Turkish customers tomorrow night. More food! Looking forward to seeing Angst on Friday night. Will they ask me to sing with them? Will take my microphone and lead down just in case. I'm singing with them at their party later in September, but they may give me a go Friday. Fingers crossed.
