I haven't been to see anyone in ages, I missd it but We're trying finish our house so we can sell it at the moment so money is all going on diy. I spent this weekend staining doors! But while I was doing it I listened to:

 

Metallica - Black Album

White Zombie - La Sexorcisteo

Motorhead - No Remorse

Guns and Roses - Appetite for Distruction

Type O Negative - October Rust and Bloody Kisses

Sisters of Mercy - Some Girls Wonder By Mistake

Skid Row - Subhuman Race

Got a few gigs lined up in the next coupla months... Elektrofest headlined by top German bleepers Covenant (and for some reason, Siobhan Fahey ), then a week later is the Whitby Goth Weekend. Gotta feel sorry for the people of Whitby... ordinary seaside town most the year, but twice a year is invaded by a plethora of assorted freaks! Then early May I'm celebrating the return of Katscan to London, yay!

 

But apologies to Deano and Mazrah... won't be able to go out to play at the end of the month, as we're not in London that weekend (been double booked, doh)

 

By the way, any ideas of the collective noun for Goths? A sadness of Goths? A calamity? oh dear...

Maybe its a scourge of goths or a cloud? Yay Whitby! No gigs for me atm as have no job and no money hoping to see Reading or Ozzfest later on though.

As for CD's i am currently obssessed with the new AFI album-Sing the Sorrow, yummy Daveyness plus slight metal and industrial additions! I have been known to also slip in a bit of the Smiths though.

ok, right now, just looking through some cds and happened up Snow Patrol - When it's all over we still have to clear up Forgot how good this is! Possibly, I might look out Looper next, and then Gomez...

Relaxin', dippin ma' toes to jacuzi, be-be!

 

Listenin' to The "D". "Wonderboy" has just finished playing.

 

Saw Tenacious D at the Edinburgh Corn Exchange last weekend. ROCK!

 

Shroom.

Gotta love Tenacious D...

 

Listening to the Ramsey Lewis Trio right now, had Mark Thomas in South Wales last week so got to see him (no music, except for a Clash CD playing while we were waiting for him to take the stage...)

 

Been up in a dodgy Holiday Inn in Glasgow this week and haven't had much time to do anything except listen to 1001 tracks on the 12 hour journey up and the 8 hour trip back...

Keeping the Faith by listening to some claasic Northern Soul on The Twisted Wheel Story, Vols 1&2.

Ok no laughing, but I'm listening to the soundtrack to the movie Chicago. The movie was great and in listening to the cd, I can picture it all over again in my mind.

Me and mazrah went to see the Burning Brides at the garage the other night, and got a few free CD's given to us...so we're playing them and the White Stripes new album elephant

The new White Stripes album is a winner

hey guys... i've been wanted to do a mass playlist for a while, and now I have the chance... so far only 13 hours worth of music in that... but it's getting ever bigger as I copy my music CDs to the computer...

 

Ok so that's 20 albums at 13 hours... I have somewhere between 300-350 cds... that would be.... calculating..... 227.5 hours... that's a lot of music... it's almost 10 days worth with out a break... what a real joy:)

 

On the other side I bought the new Linkin' Park album today, listening to it now... not bad so far as I'd heard mixed reviews. I was going to buy the new cardigans album, but saw it too late I guess that'll be next on the hit list...

 

Planning to buy (in the next 2 months) the new Blur (Think Tank), the new Stereophonics (You Gotta Go There to Come Back), and possibly the new Metallica album, although that does depend on what I hear from real people and not reviews... I haven't bought a Metallica album since the black one, which I for one was disapointed with.

 

wow I've written an essay!

 

later,

I should have put that out of the 300ish cds I have, probably only half of them are any good, and only about 3/4s of them are mine... go figure.

Currently listening to Queen's Greatest Hits 1 and have "We Are The Champions" on repeat play.

 

Many thanks to the Lumley fans in Leeds for their help today.

Always happy to be of service to our friends from across the Pennines .... the second time in 4 years we've given them assistance against the Wenger Boys!!

 

I am about to put Never Mind the Bollocks by the Sex Pistols on the stereo ...which includes the track 'Liar'

 

MARK VIDUKA!!!

I am currently listning to Live, Papa Roach and Eminem. A friend (the same who got me hooked on Necroscope ) suggested I listen to Live and Papa Roach, and I'm liking what I hear!

still listening to Elepahnt by the White Stripes, but also added Think Tank by Blur. ALso revisiting Leftfield

Just had Auntie's Cricket theme playing - it has a proper name but I can't remember it...

 

Just got a Rammstein album (after watching the opening scenes to xXx I had to improve my collection of their tunes - shame about the rest of the flick!) so I've been listening to their gentle German ballads...

 

...Oh and the Medical Love song from Monty Python...

I've been re-aquainting myself with Therapy, Troublegum recently

THerapy? That's a band I haven't listened to for years.... I never really got into troublegum as I found that the like of Nurse, and the other 2 earlier albums (I think they were compiled on Caucasian Psychosis), had a much grittier sound... which I prefered (potato junkie being a favourite song). Are they still going?

Kinda disappointed with what I've heard of the new White Stripes album, compared to the last one... bit too Led Zeppelin for my tastes! Listening to the Ladytron album a lot recently though! (and Phill, the new Katscan stuff is great, saw the guys on Saturday)

Prepare the jokes.... Getting a little psyched for a September concert I am going to be heading to so I am listening to some Aerosmith right now - old stuff and new stuff....

 

And yes, they are touring with KISS and Saliva. Should be a good show....

Need to borrow my platforms then Shadoe?

And I've got some face make-up going cheap...

Tops I have no idea if Therapy are still going, they had a new album out a couple of years a go but I can't remember what it was called and haven't heard anything since. It got mixed reviews so I never got aroung to buying it.

 

I really like Troublegum though, could be because I didn't hear any of their earlier stuff before or because I encouraged Andy's old band to cover Knives and he did the whispering at the begining of the song, he scared some girl in the audience and remembering the look on her face alway makes me laugh!

I actualy saw an advert for a therapy gig in Manchester soon.

 

currently on my CD player.. is dare I say it, Trance Nation. im in a dancy music phase at the moment
