I'm looking forward to Green Day, Jimmey Eats World and Taking Back Sunday
at MK Bowl on 19th of this month. I do hope it's a nice sunny and warm day,
but odds on it'll be p*ssing down!

As the offspring has completed his AS-levels by... errr... (looks at watch)
now he has the next two days off college. He is accompanying his aged,
mid-life crisised mother into Norwich either tomorrow or Friday to make sure
that any attire I purchase to wear at said MK Bowl event is suitable for
when I mosh. No crimplene two-piece allowed apparently ;-)

Oh bugger, I only recognised 30% of those names and I'm only aware of
having heard anything by one of them. Does this mean I'm due to get my
pipe and slippers surgically attached any day now? :-\

I've just been sent a copy of Senor Coconut's El Baile Aleman; which is
a load of bossa nova/samba cover versions; at first I thought "what is
this ****?" but it's actually petty good in a very irreverent sort of
way; the version of Autobahn starts with the car, which wont start!
well worth a listen.

I am pleased to report that Chris Cornell did /not/ come down with a sore
throat (though I should not be surprised if this were a frequent
occurrence).

I am less pleased to report that if a band wishes to alienate their fans,
then waiting forty-five minutes between getting the stage set up up and
starting the set, while the temperature in the auditorium is only marginally
less than that of the surface of the sun is an excellent way of so doing.
