the glamorous life of a musician.

early start. half day of work. pick everyone up. drive 200 miles, through traffic jams and past maaaatlock, get confused by 1 way systems. get to gig. soundcheck then sit in the van while michael shouts at people.
play mint gig. wait for shite band after us to finish. set off home. drive 300 miles cos you get lost. find new way. find closed road. confuse workies. have stupid argument at macdonalds. have biggest laughs at services. wonder how you are still awake. then drop everyone off. get home. exhausted. but wide awake due to the sugary drinks to keep you awake on the road. watch crap tv. write crap blog. would i change it? would i fuck!

plans

today is a day that i had planned for a while. i had ideas for presents and things to do. grand gestures and little surprises. how the world changes ey. i'm making plans for other things now. gonna start again. it'll be good again too.

i've spent the last couple of minutes talking to a midget. he doesnt have proper arms either, he's a good lad though.

this weekend i get a trip away then come home to what is a very big day for my band. it should be very exciting.

wondering where to go from here though. how do i start again? what new plans can i make? its a funny old world sometimes

there's always a 3rd way

so i'm starting today writing my 3rd type of blog, there's been the weird possibly funny inner workings of my strange little mind with wild accusations, odd stories and pictures of animals in hats. then there's been the feeling sorry for myself really depressing cries for help. i apologise for the second type, i've been a right moody twat recently, but i found some of my confidence behind the settee this morning and i promise you wont get one of those from me again.

so a wise man once drunkenly stated that there is ALWAYS a third way. he scared some people and argued with others but on this occasion he is right, only for this though, not all the time, dont get your hopes up sunshine!

my third way of writing a blog is to talk about something i believe in. and for me this is the alternative vote. i am going to vote YES. i am not writing this to tell you you have to vote yes too, to be fair i'm not sure half the people who read this blog are allowed to vote either due to the fact your not from the uk or because you are deemed mentally unstable or possibly because it seems that most of the hits i have got on this blog seem to be for one picture of jose mourinho.....

just look at him, i'm actually getting a little confused about my feelings for him, but thats for another blog, i've got sidetracked here, back to my point....

i'm not saying you should vote yes, thats your decision, i'm just giving the reasons i am voting yes and then letting you decide for yourselves. for me it comes down to one simple reason. the voting system in this country is currently flawed in that there are more people who dont want the ruling party in than there are people who do. under AV the winning candidate will be the one that most people are happy with. i could try and explain how it all works but whats the point there are others out there who can do it better than me.

also i will try and sway you a little by naming 3 groups of people who dont want AV...... the tories, the bnp, the daily mail.....

i drove a band on tour last weekend. that was tiring, i was in the presence of a man who thought he had shit himself on 2 seperate occasions, i slept in my van for 2 nights, and among the many other things i ate a pretty much a whole tesco value cheesecake

wow i just got interrupted there by someone coming into my office and buying something, i had some work to do, if only that happened more often, my head might not be the mess that it is! 

anyways back to the tour, turns out your allowed to party on the beach at portsmouth! its mint! 

and another thing dont worry too much about my mourinho thing as one day i will marry this woman 

also is anyone else aware of the sky channel called QUEST? i am always disappointed when i skip past it as i almost always stop thinking it is uk conquest and i am finally gonna see an episode of skirmish.

wow this has been a long blog for me. i think i have actually covered all 3 blog types in this one blog, does that make it a 4th way, a kind of all of the above selection. well there you go chris, there's actually always a 4th way, so suck on that. 

oh by the way in 48 days time i will be in glastonbury! 

get in. 

and to finish i again had chicken fajitas for tea as mentioned in a previous blog here. it was even nicer this time 

ps supporting lady gaga next week!
