Sinister: Ease your feet

A few highlights (?) of my trip to London on Monday.

1) Spaceboy Dream...bass blew me away...superb...I hadn't heard any of the new stuff as I didn't buy the LP until Tuesday and it's just not the same on the album.

2) Seeing that Sean Hughes still likes every band I've ever liked..or is that the other way round ? And me just hours earlier having bought his debut novel...freaky.

3) Having to laugh at Keef *The Knuckles* Watson getting lairy with the bloke in front of us who had paid a tenner to treat us to a few Townshendesque renditions of B&S songs.  On seeing that noone particularly was amused/interested he then proceeded to talk to his bird through half the show.  CU Next Tuesday.
By the way, Nice to meet you Keith.

4) After being generally disappointed with the show, although delighted to have just been there, we went to Plastic People....fucking crap.  Sorry Duke, should have listened to your advice.

Apologies for not piping up and saying hello to the listees that were stood either side of us in PP.  I don't know who you were, but we were sat on the bouncy seats by the bar.  Again, sorry but we were totally shagged after a days shopping, pissed as farts after a days drinking, and hiding from a rather dodgy looking bloke who had taken a shining to my Kate and looking at me as though he was going to ease his feet into my teeth.  Oh and I'm a bit shy for introductions.

5) Sitting in Picadilly 24 hour McDonalds for 2 hours drinking the same cup of coffee, watching the local fruitcakes screaming at the security cameras...best fun of my entire holiday.

6) Abusing Buckingham Palace at 5 o'clock in the morning, cos they wouldn't let me use the Queens John....not bad on 2 pints of Strongbow and 4 Diamond Whites.

7) Calling the bloke in Victoria Station a CU Next Tuesday cos he wouldn't let us use our tickets before 9:30 and charged an extra £20....Fucker.

8) Joosters are fucking horrible.

Adrian.
