I feel so grown up, this is the first time I've booked a hotel room to stay in London over night (well I did get a hotel room after seeing Jello Biafra at The Union Chapel but that was because I missed the last train home.)

More Than Life's van broke down on the way to the show so Fast Point were the first band on.

Went to The World's End and got a ticket for Gentleman's Pistols then went to the second hand place and got two CDs from both the downstairs and upstairs sections, got something...

I'm writing this before I go to work so I'll only do the quickest of quick reviews.

The Legacy: Been listening to them for awhile but never saw them until now, a few people have told me they're good on record but shit live. I found them extremely good, I think most people are slaging them off because they're moving in a more progressive direction....

So I had my cousin Jonathan's funeral on Monday (I actually got it wrong in my last blog, he was just a year younger than me), I won't bring anybody down by going into detail but it got me thinking if I died before my time would I get the funeral service I'd want, I've been kicking this idea around in my head for the...
