Now then..........

Right I've got some stuff to put out here on the 'station weather you like rain or not!

oooooh where to begin..... ok here seems good, i did one to the notts on Thursday and then on the Friday Carla and myself did do all of our xmas shopping in almost one hit but had to finish off on the Saturday (El, did you notice how I'm using capital letters at the start of days of the week? I'm very proud of me!) so everyone who receives a prezzie from us this crimbo you now know of its origins. (we made sure we didn't buy our presents from poor kids who work their fingers to the bone for a penny a month as that would be promoting child labor, so unfortunately now those poor kids are working their fingers to the bone knowing that the masterpieces they have created are going to stay put on the shelves of a shop somewhere!......... only jokin before you all unsubscribe from your favourite blog station! oh by the way all of you are yet to pay the subscription fee, don't worry its a one off payment of only £49.99, checks made payable to Aran Hawkins, £10 per azzman network session thereafter with an added charge of £2.50 per comment made. all rights reserved)

And then............ oh yeah Saturday night! oh what fun mmhm! i driveded to Chesterfield to be at the latest gig of STRANGEDAY, i had myself a good time. As Toby has mentioned it was a bit of a strange gig, suitably. Lets just say it was an intimate gig and leave it there. (NO ALCOHOL). I was blown away by all the rocking that went on, and the band were too classy for the audience. My favourite moments were..... Beautiful, Give it Some, Grace Abuse, Fog pilot, and the second song of the night which i don't know the name of, its a new one i believe and i was very impressed! Covers included End of the World which Toby forgot to remember the words to, he he, Message in a bottle which was quality (Toby has mastered this one i think) and the best version of Johnny Be Good I've ever heard with plenty of rocking and a mind blowing drumming performance by Darth Paul. I got all excited inside listening to this one! oh yeah and they didn't play my requested cover which upset me a little.... Workin' 9 to 5 by Dolly Parton would've gone down a storm! I think my favourite part of the evening though was before the gig even started. Strangeday were warming up and played an amazing version of Beautiful (i think it was this one but i couldn't hear the words coz they wasn't using the mic's, but i didn't need to coz the music they were playing made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up! i don't mean literally like, my hairs don't have little legs which they are able to stand up on, they don't sit down either coz they have no bums, so they just hang there then when they played the song they just kind of point out a little bit! imagine if they did have bums though....... wouldn't life be messy!?). Then at the end we Kebabbed a gooden!
Really Guys you should be playing to thousands, i believe you have the talent to go far and i hope you soon start getting the recognition you deserve!

anyway this blog has lasted far too long!

Rock on to the crossroads!
