I’m off to London with a few people this afternoon to go and see my friend Belle sing at The Buzzard (previously the Purple Turtle) in Camden.

So Good Luck Belle! I know she’s really nervous, but it’s going to be great!

The Munkyfest “Keith” CD’s are available online. Why not treat your self to some fine DIY music and see what you’re letting yourself in for at Munkyfest.

I’ve been a busy bee over the last few days and will be busy over the next few.

Monday night I had a HudLUG meeting – Paul and I gave presentations and the whole thing was well received. I think we also had the biggest turn out I had seen for quite a while, a massive TEN people altogether.

Tuesday night I had a gig at a restaurant in Leeds. It was ok, the place was a bit quiet and the guy running it was a bit worried about us playing too loud. Hopefully things will pick up as people find out a live band are playing there regularly.

Tonight is my night off this week – I’ll be mainly sorting out the washing and doing some tidying up. Maybe I’ll water my plant too (thanks Emma, I’m looking after it I promise!)

Thursday night I have a jam night at Vox. I really enjoy doing them, although this time, because of my schedule on Friday, I won’t be drinking, which means I will be driving, and getting home about 2:30am. Work on Friday is not going to be fun.

Friday evening I’m driving up to Newcastle to visit Emma (and probably Laura K and other people). I’m giving Clare a lift up to Durham on the way, which should give me some good company. I much prefer driving with other people with me to chat to!

Anyway, so, busybusy…

Look to the right and you should see the last couple of tracks I’ve been listening to. Neat huh. All provided courtesy of Audioscrobbler.

Hi,

Yes, thats right Dave Grohl is drumming on the new NIN album!

Those of you who know me will be aware that I FREAKIN love the NAILS and FOO FIGHTERS and NIRVANA so its probably gonna be ace.

And I certainly haven’t heard any leaked tracks on t’internet so I definetely don’t know that they sound bloomin’ brilliant!

Ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,

Yes.

do you know when and were you, and your supporting band, are playing over the next few weeks? I’ve realised that although I’ve known you since a time when you were commonly know as just Beezly (but not andrew (surely that’s yor brothers name?)) I’ve never seen you play. must drag hib over in dragg to see you play soon

Well, I’ve been on a bit of a selling and spending spree. I bought myself a load of patch leads for my amp, am in the process of selling my old bass amp, bought a new CD of Jackson United, Chris Schiffler’s band whilst he isn’t doing Foo Fighters. I really want to buy some Shure E2c headphones too, but I can’t afford those at the moment.

I managed to persuade the band to buy some equipment last night too. We’re about to order an Alesis 3630 Compressor, an Alesis Nanoverb reverb unit, a case for our mixer and effects, the rackmount kit for our mixer and a wedge monitor so we can hear ourselves!

I went off to Greenbelt again last weekend and had a fantastic time. Take a look at the photos here. Hello to Amy, Manda, Jon, Dave, Nick, Olivia, Patrick, Young Dave, Little Dave and Nicola. Thank goodness there aren’t to many Beezly’s in the world… all these Dave’s get confusing. Bought to you by the power of Tokyo Adventures.

Yo,

Went to Move 2004 on Saturday at Old Trafford cricket ground!

Saw:-

22-20′s (good)
The Stands (bad)
Tim Booth (very good)
Goldfrapp (bloody marvellous)
Pixies (expletive brilliant)
Stereophonics (F-off left before they finished)

It pissed down all afternoon and evening which kinda ruined it but the good music was good!
