Great gig last night. Thoroughly enjoyed myself. Thought Turning 13 were especially brilliant.

Unless theres something getting in the way, I practice for at least an hour a day. Mix between just random fucking about on the piano playing nothing in particular and learning new music.

I love Randy Newman, never quite understood how hes got quite a bad rap for being shite. Or at least from tonnes of folk I know. Land of Dreams is very good, as is Trouble in Paradise, for the most part anyway. Theres always a couple of pretty poor tunes on most of his great albums. Though, when hes good he's brilliant. His latest (2008) Harps and Angels is definitely worth a listen too. If only for 'A Few Words in Defense of My Country' which is a brilliant song. Another good one, albeit nothing spectacular about the album itself, is The Randy Newman Songbook Vol. 1 which is rerecordings of songs from throughout his career just him and piano. Gives you a decent idea of which albums you might like to dip in and out off. Also, the man wrote 'I Think It's Going To Rain Today' from his first album, which is one of the best tunes ever. Actually, his whole back catalogue (by no means brilliant, or even good across the board) is worth dipping in and out of, as theres little gems of songs throughout it all.

Bon Jovi aside, its awful. I just can't imagine Rivers Cuomo doesn't think its shite. Almost sounds like hes writing for a crappy childrens tv programme.

They mentioned that safety harnesses slowed up the whole thing and it (no harnesses) was allowed under some fuck abouty regulations. I agree. Fuck. That.

Tonight We Fly (Or any song from Promenade)- The Divine Comedy Not The Same - Ben Folds Joining a Fanclub - Jellyfish Caprice - The Wildhearts Blue Riders on The Range - Pearlfishers Wrapped in Grey - XTC If Only The Moon Were Up - Field Music Jailbreak - Thin Lizzy Symphonic Dances from West Side Story - Bernstein Rhapsody in Blue - Gershwin Book would be 'Kill Your Friends' by John Niven. Luxury item would be an upright piano.

The very fact that you are the only person who ever stalks me scares me, and leads me to believe you are in fact a stalker.

2 minutes? You're improving.

Watched the Werner Herzog movie 'Aguirre The Wrath of God' tonight. Spaniard leads a bunch of others to find El Dorado and decends into madness. I'm really not sure what to make of it to be honest.

Scrolling down that page I was in no way prepared for the Scotch Mega Egg. I think I threw up a little in my mouth. The meat baby on the other hand was absolutely banging. Second helpings nearly finished me off though. Bad move, but so fucking tasty.

Well played sir, well played. It was the launch of the Aberdeen International Youth Festival, and since I work for them thought it best to show my face, even if it was operatic pish. Though there were lovely dancers shortly before the opera. That was nice.

Anything with a little hint of Wildhearts, Clutch and Devin Townsend is most certainly worth having a listen to.

Saw Teabags at the beer fest last night. Proper stalk as we've never met. Had another proper stalk with Nev until he ruined it and came over and spoke.

Aye thats me, albeit from about four years ago. The only instance I've ever been the owner of a blue nose.

Great gig last night. First time seeing the Fannies live, hopefully not the last. Support band were called Yuck as far as I remember.

Can't wait for this, going to be great. Listening to the new album to get myself in the mood.

This generally does it for me.

Uploaded a couple more tunes. Have a listen if you fancy. Called 'Arthurs Thrashing' and 'Old Men in Love' Cheers Belloc’s Bar on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads

Nope. But you never know.

Thirded, but I am in the band.

Fannying about. Troy is absolutely terrible indeed.

I am what can only be described as boner'd up at the prospect of this gig. Can't fucking wait. Its going to be great.

Done and done. I'll give the cash to Ron, and he can make the transaction if that suits? Seeing as he'll easily see you without too much hassle.

Completely serious chief. Fucking loves West Side Story me. Would be cool to have the soundtrack. How much?

I'd take the West Side Story soundtrack off your hands if no one else plans to.
