its a sad sad day + but its all rock and roll
hola all,
been quite some time since I have been in contact. will try and bring you up to speed on what has been a rockin and rollin london town...
but first...
it is with a heavy heart, a lump in my throat, and a tear running down my cheek. as of the Monday just passed, the Aussie assault on 428a Fulham Palace Road, London, UK has finished. Yes that is right. we thought that the good times would never end, but with Pip and BB heading off on their trip soon, it was time to sever all ties. To Lauren, Jimmy and BB THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR MAKING THE PALACE WHAT IS WHAT - THE BIZ. so many funny memories from that place, will always remember that flat - lauren: setting the smoke alarms off - jimmy: cans on the couch - bb: you possum. and to all the ppl that have experienced the palace - you know what i am talkIng about....
now, what do you get when you add 100 live acts/djs + 10 arenas + 30000 people = HOMELANDS. went there last weekend and it was the biz. some cracking music and loads of good times. highlights [::the music:::faithless:::2manyDJs:::plump djs:::lamb::] was wicked day. we had a massive posse there so was always someone to run into.
in more things rock and roll the line up for glastonbury has been announced - wont list all the acts as there is so damn many. here are a few select highlights:
kings of leon - jet - frans ferdinand - von bondies - rapture - ozomatli - paul mccartney - ben harper - black eyed peas - libertines - black rebel motor cycle club - zero 7 - muse - james brown - oasis - elbow - snow patrol - the bees - chikinki - keane - simple kid - british sea power - stanton warriors
as you can tell - more then a little excited. the rest of the details for Glastonbury basically go like this
+ most famous rock festival in the world
+ 3 days of rock goodness
+ 120 000 ppl rockin and rollin.
now, after Glastonbury the 'summer of luff // 04' continues when me and my partner in crime mr Marcus wood head to the white island (ibiza) for more f-u-n in the s-u-n. cannot wait for this. going to be great to enjoy some proper summertime weather. will be spending about 5 days in ibiza before heading up to pampalona and meeting up with the rest of the kids (lauren/jimmy/bb/sus) for the running of the bulls. currently in training for the run with laps around clapham common - having a little bit of trouble replicating the running bulls though. more work required. so Pamplona for all things bovine for three days then back to Barcelona for a few days. will be wicked to see more of Spain - cannot wait.
that is about all for now. obviously will be a few more stories to come in the next weeks.
stay tuned to this bat channel
as always
