About this blog

I went to a zoo, it was the worst zoo ever, they only had 1 dog, it was a shih tzu.

Entries in this blog

Thursday stuff.

I have been a little subdued post Leeds, plenty of work to come back to and joy of joys on Tuesday our whole local server was down where I store most of my files, I sat twiddling my thumbs all of Tuesday and was hammered with work on Wednesday. I am back on top of it now. I see from the blog of bus that he is a serial early samich eater. I always always eat my sandwiches at ten, this stems from the days when I was an insomniac and may have been up at 3am, so come ten I was a hankering for sa

Leeds festival.

wednesday leeds. bitch of a journey due to poor direction on my part. Got in though and tent up and gazebo prior to the down pour from hell. Then its make friends and party, there was 5 of us that initially arrived and later joined by 2 more. From here, me and paul essex. essex started drinking as soon as he got out of the car and carried on pretty much all weekend. Too much wine on wednesday night ensured that its a blur. Thursday. We are joined by the rest of the party and late in th

Leeds festival.

I wrote out a large large large blog entry about leeds and f**king lost it. It basically said I drank a lot, had a good time, watched some bands of which the fall, metric, get cape wear cape fly, kaiser chiefs and my chemical romance were all good. I may try writing it out again. Bastard computer.

I woke you up, what times the bus come?

It's Tuesday, on the way in this morning I listened to Im wide awake its morning. For the first time in a round a year. I love Bright eyes and listening to that album I was reminded why. I wish he was playing Leeds this year, he would be a perfect Carling stage headliner and a nice antidote to the madness I am sure will be taking place. I have a few things to get today, from the pound shop, "no, really, we have heard it all before and yes, it is only a pound" and home bargains, which is essenti

Wow.

I don’t really do the nerd thing, I pretty much hate sci fi and fantasy, I am sure harry potter is neither. I don’t play games, I have a psp but its not for games, I watch video on it. So when a mate of mine suggested I give world of warcraft a go, I sniggered a little, after all I have a wife. The whole premise was a bit of a turn off, genius mind. Imagine, you buy the game, 30 quid please, so you have bought the game, now you pay to play it, to use the servers, you have to pay again, on a mont

Chris Moyles.

I was bored on the bus this morning and came up with a geurilla activity. Hows about people calling up Chris Moyles for his phone ins and just saying the word c**t. Imagine the fines he will get, it would be great if a few people did it. I may have to give him a listen on Wednesday morning and give it a stab.

V on 4.

E4 are showing the V festival, I have been to 4 V's, including the first one in Warrington. Its easy to take the piss out of it because its a clean polite facsimile of a festival and its like a bridging festival between say T4's party on the beach and reading festival, and now that I am watching it it does remind me more of those roadshows that channel 4 put on hosted by june f**king sarpong. I digress at the moment they have just had the feeling on and now its the delays. The delays supported

Red hot poker.

I played poker last night with mates and the kid, I drank way too much and I am f**ked, genuinely f**king pissed still, we was drinking till 2 and I am seriously too old for this bollocks. Still leeds soon innit and this is a taster. As as sidenote I am here watching the ace video for the fratellis song, chelsea daggers and come to the conclusion that I am in love with at least 5 women in that video. Maybe 10.

Tickets ahoy.

As of last night I have my Leeds tickets, I had two Reading tickets and via a friend of Normbo's I made the swap last night. I can get excited about going now, was cutting it a bit fine though. We arranged this swap in May as it goes and for all the people that rip others off on this forum, this was a straight swap of tickets, neither of us pulled out and it was trouble free. Out last night in town a lot of people for the V festival was about, I hate to generalise but there are a f**kload of pe

16 Clumsy and Shy.

It was my intention that this efestivals blog was just going to be festival related, but as time has gone on it’s a bit difficult resisting just wittering. I have even tried to tenuously tie gigs to festivals. I can imagine it, today I walked my dog (that is really what it will be like) which reminded me off the first time I went to Glastonbury festival and on our way through Glastonbury town I espied a crusty with a dog on a string, not a cliché, there really was one, and I wound down the windo

Cud Birmingham Academy 2

Cud at Birmingham last night. The support was excellent, a chap called Rob McCulloch, will be looking into him later today, really good. As I have said I last saw Cud at Glastonbury festival, they were the highlight that year, that was around 93. So last nights gig had been a long time coming. Puttnam had clearly gained a bit of weight, but who hasn't I know I am not the bloke I was 13 years ago. William and Steve didn’t appear to have aged at all, Steve being the drummer from Cud. They ha

Robinson Crusoe.

Essex has assured me that my tickets will be here tomorrow, I feel his drug consumption has got the better of him. Tonight I am off to see 90's Leeds indie band Cud. A band that are possibly in my top 20 all time bands. Certainly in the early 90's in my top 5. Always used to see them supporting the Wedding Present and saw them just way too many times, its a bit of a deal for me tonight, unsure if I will feel the same emotion I felt when I saw the reformed pixies at brixton a couple of years a

Hello, can I speak to an idiot please.

I may have been a little harsh on SMS, let me elaborate. I ordered my tickets last September, paid for them and then didn’t have to worry when they went on sale. I use the tracker on Seetickets website and this told me that they had been dispatched. My kid who is a miserable shit and likes to stop up late and get up late was coerced into getting up at 8 so as not to miss those f**king idiots that masquerade as a courier firm (you see a pattern here). She did this for two days and nothing. So

Last night.

I meet up with Essex last night and Paul. Paul joined us at Download, this is him sans bandana, but with aviators. Paul had the Leeds ticket off us and he seemed very happy. A good night last night, I am not Essex who takes the candle, burns both ends, gets bored with that and eats the f**ker. At download Essex ate glowsticks and hel0rz and I challenged him at Leeds to eat play doh, which he said last night he still will. He also told me last night that hel0rz is no longer going to Leed

Il postino.

Seetickets say my tickets are in the post, unsure if they are using SMS anymore as Royal Mail delivered our Cud tickets today. For all their faults SMS are way better than the thieving c**ts that masquerade as postmen.

Shut up Peter.

So the cat has been put amongst the pidgeons regarding Teago and Leeds, not good but not the end of the world. The company outside of Teago was good anyway so no harm no foul. My worry at the moment is that I still haven't got the Reading tickets I am swapping for Leeds tickets. Ideally I wanted to get them swapped this weekend. I do not want to be scrambling about for a ticket if this falls through. I don’t think it will fall through but until I have the ticket in my hand it is a worry.

Catholocism.

It appears that due to work commitments, my long term festival companion and great mate, Teago is pulling out of Leeds, now thats a bitch.

Arse candle.

Some how those filthy bastards at Burger King managed to poison me and I have been to put it bluntly, shitting through the eye of a needle, in one respect this is bad, health and all that, the other respect I had a delivery of Leeds festival early entry tickets.

Tents.

The last time the tent was out was at download, my kid has loads of storage in the attic room and the tents go back there. Yesterday she got a tent out as they have gone to Newquay for the week and she tells us that of the 4 tents that should be there, there is one. A little alarmed by that as they aren't like a cutlery set or a gas canister that could easily be in a dark corner, its 3 f**king tents, one a large one and 2 2 man tents. I am hoping it is just my kids dim wittedness and they are t

Leeds ticket trois.

We went to Leeds today, filthy Leeds as I like to call it. Managed to find Crash records piece of piss, forgot the all important blue slip receipt and started to cry inside at the thought that we may have to go home sans ticket, didnt, so thats one ticket. We do it all again soon to the south to exchange two other tickets.
