guy.fawkes.into.a.bar

you know the rest.

it’s bonfire night and i am convinced that there is a war breaking out in salford, the noise of the array of fireworks all around is astonishing. it’s created qite a thick fog and i can’t see far out the window, which isn’t a bad thing. where i live looks like one of those high class prisons where they put sex offenders locked up together so the general population can’t harm them.

but that’s just what i think. nice benches though.

me and my partner in crime will be taking on the challenge of a film soon, as well as our interviews we are recording/filming, and it will be shot and edited entirely on mobile phones. gonna be an interesting one, we’re thinking of focusing it on train stations. specifically the platforms with the goodbyes and emotions, as well as the sprint to get to the train before it pulls off.  keep your wandering eye here as i’ll probably put up a few clips during the process. clips from the radio show should be up here next week to.

and keeping on the subject i’ll leave you with this video of one guy with a camera in his noggin. a view from inside the fire.

f*ckity bye

 

 

good.evening.glastonbury

it’s that time agin to start the speculations of who is going to play at glastonbury next sumnmer. tickets have been and gone and i got one. which is all that matters really. it’s the 40th year but it’s the 30th festival.

that’s maths.

so jarvis cocker has said he is playing and then the media got their hopes up and started spreading the rumours that pulp were reforming which was shot down quick smart by jc. a shame but anyone with a bit of cop on knows that they won’t be getting together anytime soon.

next up is robert plant, who recieved the Q outsanding  contribution to music award this week. he had a chat to michael eavis, founder and organiser of  the glastonbury festivals, who asked him if he would be interested in a slot at the festival next year. of course plant said yes. the question now is who will he be playing with, will it be the strange sensation, the band behind him for the crittically acclaimed ‘mighty rearranger’ or will it be his grammy award winning partner alison krauss, the bluegrass songstress whom he paired with on the masive hit ‘raising sand’…

or could it be.. y’know… the other guys.

time will tell.

see you at glastonbury bitches.

f*ckity bye
