High time I updated this journal with wednesdays exploits.
Gotta type quick. Could drop off at any moment with a severe dose of narcolepsy. It's more to do with the fact I got in from the gig at 1am, nowhere close to my usual rock and fucking roll 10.30 bedtime
Went to see The Horrorpops play Satans Hollow in Manchester. What an awesome night THAT was!
Luckily not only were the bands superb, I was in the company of the lovely Miss brogan and met up with (albeit briefly) the equally splendid dollboner. It's a shame we didn't get a little more time to chat, but hey... It wasn't condusive to chat, more like jiving to the great tunes!
Buzzkill were great. They may have looked like the eels, but rocked like a Yorkshire version of Rocket From the Crypt (no really). I really enjoyed them. Kid Voodoo were great stuff too. Sadly, only caught a little bit of their set. Im sure our friends will treat us to the full experience! Send More Paramedics weren't to my taste. I thought I'd left the grindcore in rockwold. Anyway, they got the approval of a lot of the crowd, and it WAS their home gig really. I hardly think a couple of slightly disapproving rockers were going to piss on their parade now, eh?.. Horrorpops were great fun. To be honest, I'd expected a little more EXPERIENCE to their live sound but they interacted with the crowd and played a flawless stompin' set!
Tired now, not got the strength to carry on with this debacle much longer........
Just wishin' all my mates a good friday and weekend if I don't try and pop round to your journals shortly.
off now.... zZZzZZzzZZZz

And I know, because my band used to play with them back when they were much, much heavier. Nyah!
I do need a good dose of the clash... but it's not so easy when you live with people who might not appreciate my version of music therapy. I feel like a prisoner in my own home. Everything is so surreal
Not to mention that my grandmother passed away the same day that Sean broke things off with me... just when I needed him the most.
