    • This confusion is now resolved. Apparently the Cremorne has an upstairs room.

    • they also have that great outside space that the council killjoys stopped them using for gigs and a rather large rehearsal space too.
      What a waste.
      Potentially one of the best live venues in Sheffield till all the best staff jumped ship to open stock room.
      I won't be going sadly unless I can find a dog sitter / shit cleaner.

    • I'm working at Hyde Park at the moment, doing The Killers Friday, Neil Young Saturday and The Boss on sunday. Monday and tuesday back at the office then back to Hyde Park till the next sunday. Got Blur and Wireless fest.
      Busy times!

    • 3rd day of Hard Rock Calling done today, Neil Young was awesome+ macca jumped onstage at the end, weird. Fleet Foxes are pretty damn good live,
      Tomorrow is The Boss, then I get two days in the office again, then back at Hyde Park. 3 weeks with no days off

    • Woke up at 6pm yesterday so no gig action for me. Was setting my sights on a quiet night in when a mate called so ended up at his playing metallica guitar hero - nice suprise to see Albatross and blood and thunder on there! :cool: Also we had a pathetically shit kick about with a football in the garden, then watched Bourne Identity.

      I got about 8 insect bites on my head while in the garden, the joys of summer :rolleyes:

      Today i'd watched a couple of documentaries on NG, other than that just chilling, n/p terrorvision 'Regular Urban Survivors'

      The main vocalist in Fleet Foxes sounds amazing, he did a couple of songs with just him on acoustic, seriously good. Springsteen tonight was brilliant as we're the gaslight anthem. I got to film them and the boss jumped onto vocals for a track, so thats a good one for the cv!

    • this weekend was rthe fucking nuts. well chilled

      fri: ate the greatest burger i ever did taste and went cloud spotting on wimbledon common by night
      sat: mate's b'day party and some drinks on somebody's roof
      sun: south coast for the day, lots of sun and lots of beach!

      also been catching up on glasto highlghts on the telly and it looked immense!

      neil young, crosby, stills and nash and the boss were amazing and by the sounds of things, so were blur.

    • I've been getting all the glasto bands in Hyde Park, Neil Young, Fleet Foxes, Gaslight Anthem, Bruce Springsteen and Blur on thursday and friday. I like my job
    •  mambamamba
    • The Boss was great yesterday, as were The Gaslight Anthem. Its great to see a band so genuinely thrilled to be there. Having Bruce get up on stage with you would probably do that!

    • Last night i mended a draw in my bed and put my back out somewhat. I'm hoping that a shift at work tonight will ease the discomfort.

      I've also this afternoon bought a new tent, a 4 man Gelert Tornado. Moved away from the cheap supermarket ones finally.

    • Today I found out that the reason the new system at work sends us to places an hour ealier than the delivery time is so we can go fucking flyering about home delivery.
      Fuck. That. Shit.
      Theres gonna be many a bin in North Yorkshire full of Asda delivery leaflets while I have a fag and a kip.
      Fucking work.

    • Got a phone call when i finished work this morning from an ambulance man at my grans, she passed away in the night, looks like she fell off the bed or something when she woke up as she was slumped against the bedside cabinet, it would have been her 95th birthday next wednesday!

      She had a good innings, outlived most of her friends and relatives who were born of a similar time. Over the last year or so she's deteriorated quite sharpish though, and i think it was a good time for her to go before she got too bad, not too early but not too late.

      I only went to see her yesterday evening and thought she was more lively than the previous week when i went up .

      One thing after another lately.

      :cry:
    •  LaddethLaddeth
    • Sorry to hear that dude :(

      Amongst all this morbidity (what is it with June?! :() there is a little light though.
      Say hello to my Nephew Alex Starbuck

      My weekend...

      Tonight- Mrs got back yesterday so probably stay in with her as I'm banned from drinking by the doctor at the moment till they find out what the hell is wrong with me.
      Saturday- probably chill a bit and usual e-mails and work on music stuff.
      Sunday- Band practise

      Nice quiet one before my hectic week ahead...
