Life is for living and.....

Guess the song? Or even the band? No?! No brownie points for you then! 'Life's forgiving' is taken from 'Pilgrim Soul', a rather hard hitting track from Pushing The Senses, the latest offspring from Welsh rock giants Feeder. In fact at the CIA we were treated to the Newport Connection, as the chavtastic GLC were the support. Myself, Jen, Sian, Rhyd and Tom caught the last song of their set, the bluntly titled 'Your Mother's Got a Penis'. Nice. Iit got the crowd going and I did break a smile.

Feeder were in form and as always they never fail to disappoint. 'Buck Rogers' made the walls shake (not literally before you ask) and the inclusion of the oldies like 'High' and 'Insomnia' is always good to see from a band who could churn out all of their newest stuff if they wanted to. Grant Nicholas was also given a standing oviation for his acoustic rendition of 'Dove Grey Sands'. More importantly however, I won the 'First/Last Song' guessing game so now I truly rule!!!



Of course, just in case anyone forgot where they were last night.


Yes this is me sleeping. Why i put this pic up, I do not know. Hideous wouldn't you say? You lovely people have Jen to thank for this eyesore.

Just in case you haven't noticed I have joined the online music revolution, Last.fm. I noticed it on Plas.me.uk and I thought it;s about time the world knew the true garbage I listen to. So if you asked for it or not, here you go! My Last.fm profile

Poker night this Sunday on my gaff - so be prepared to lose some money peeps! I need some dinero pretty badly!!!

My final thought is a poem written by Serj Tankian, who is the lead singer of System of a Down. This poem has made me think about the true concept of identity and what it means to be something. If it strikes a nerve with you, feel free to let me what you think.

Identity - Serj Tankian

I would like to meet a true writer
Who considers himself one who writes,
Or a true musician,
Who considers himself one who plays music,
Or a true hero,
Who considers his heroism as natural acts,
For the definition of the functions tied to people's necks
Choke the true essence of the identity.

On that final thought moment; take care of yourselves, and each other.
