Hello, hello It's been a week nearly since I last posted. Maybe this time there'll be some B&S content...... Did anyone hear Struan on Radio1 not last thursday, but the thursday before? No1's commented on it, but surely some1 else heard it? I was bouncing up and down, actually hearing him do an interview. The first moment on it was class, when Gill Mills introduced him. ".........................hello" Classic B&S! Anyway, for those who never heard it he was talking about the auction that's coming up. Gill said she's offering to look after gerbils and stuff. What a boring week I've had. Homework's starting to become even more intense, much to mine & everyone else's amusement. "Can't wait to get stuck into these books later." Can't wait at all. Usually I can't keep up with all the posts that come flying in at a time, but there only seems to be a small trickle coming through just now. Maybe because uni's starting now. I got the "Powerpuff Girls" theme-tune last night, by Bis. It's fantastic. I was watching the cartoon on the telly when I was downloading it. Don't know why it never got n that program with Adam&Joe the other night. Same goes for Mona the Vampire. (Bubbles is my fav Powerpuff girl) See if I could actually get my stubborn band to play some B&S songs, what songs would I get them to learn? I've got a few in mind. Mayfly, the State I'm in, Is it Wicked not to Care? I'd probably have to get a female vocalist for the latter though. My voice is too deep. Someday I'm going to go out and busk, but not quite yet. I need to work on my vocals (quite a bit actually) and my confidence. I'm too shy for my own good. Here's a little anecdote that contradicts what i just said. In Aril/Mayish there was the School talent show. I was hoping for some stand-up comedy and some juggling etc but it was only bands and solo singers. Anyway, it was about a fortnight before the show, and my band was up first for a rehearsal. We sounded pish coz our drummer couldn't make it, and we left after our 2songs. I left my Marshall amp there. I went back for it a few hours later and it was still going, near the end of it I think. I went backstage. Someone turned off the light to the hall, so it was darkness apart from the stage. Someone was singong, and a heap of other people were arseing around behind her. So i went on, and flashed my arse to the hall. I didn't know there was anyone there; apparently there was about 50 people out there. The next minute I was in the Deputy's office. I had to go & tell trhe head the next day. I bet it's difficult enough for the hard kids, but it was me that got a rollicking. I honestly thought, by the way he was speaking, I was getting thrown out. I got off with being banned from the show, but he did speak as if I was being expelled. I'm going to have to go now. Have a nice sleep, or day,whatever it is.
