So – Fairly standard week as per usual..nothing too exciting happened... Suprise! I’ve still not found a job, it’s fucking shit. I have however decided to put a proposal to the government, to grant me £3 Million to investigate the cause of the credit crunch. Where did all the money go? I reckon that some stingy old bastards gotten hold of it, and is sitting on it laughing his head off. Bastard. £3 million should cover the costs of the investigating(i.e a magnifying glass and a bus pass) and still leave some money to cover living expenses for me.
Monday – Up nice and early, went for an epic run around half of Edinburgh. Was totally fucked after it, especially seeing as the home straight(from Nicholson street) i was running into the wind the whole time. I’ve decided i don’t like running that much. Went to put my phone into the repair shop – fucking joke. It was my mum’s birthday, so we went to the mussel and steak bar in the grassmarket - pretty good like, pretty good. Felicity had some crazy amounts of seafood, didn’t look too appetising. Up to the house after, had some pizza and used the computer.
Tuesday – Went to pick my phone up, i don’t like spending time without it..thats bad isn’t it?? It’s still fucked! You didn’t fix it you dicks. Got back to the flat – look what i have now..new recovery disks..and they seem to be working! 8 hours later, and my laptop is back online! Game on. In this time i went for an interview in some strange office filled with old men..hmm. Don’t think i did much that night, marvelled at my new laptop back to exactly how it was. Yes. John came up to chill for a bit. Nick and Craig went out to some night.
Wednesday – Realised i had lost half of my numbers in my phone when they gave me my phone back. Great. Its still fucked. Met Aidan in town, he had a craving for a McDonalds milkshake..dunno why, their shite. Walked down to Neil and Helens, spent some time their and met their new girl Skye – i like her, she’s cool. Likes to laugh. Went back to aidans via a proper chat about music and the future and shit. Developed the planning stage for my investigation. Watched Step Brothers which is pretty funny. Pretty funny. Aidan’s folks fed me, then i headed back to the flat. Sleep. Considering i’ve not been doing much, I’m always so tired!
Thursday – Went to the phone shop yet again, and handed my phone back in. Spent the rest of the day looking for a job..still not found one. Can someone not just please give me some money!
Friday – Went to pick up my phone, got served by the assistant manager who was a rude bastard. I was tempted to put in a complaint. I switched the phone on, and it was still broken. So i was like mate, its still broken. ‘oh right..give me a minute’. He went away and came back 10 minutes later and was like ‘that should be it’. Yeah thankyou. So i wonder, what the fuck had they been doing with it for the past 3 days if it only takes 10 minutes to fix?? Bunch of fucking dicks. Oh, and i discovered an hour later...its still fucked!!
Movie night wooo! Aidan and Mike came over, we realised that we didn’t have any movies to watch haha. We started watching Predator 2. Such a funny film. The guy on the subway has just unloaded a clip onto the predator, with no effect.. He looks lost for a few seconds, then goes “Yeah” – reloads and fires some more. Its not gonna work you twat! Craig saved the day by bringing the wrestler. We then went for a mile long walk in search of coke. It’s a pretty good film, although a bit too arty etc. Luckily, unlike WWE, it didn’t contain a warning saying ‘Do not try this at home’, so i stapled a 10 dollar bill to mikes forehead.
Saturday – Didnt really do much, looked for a job. Went up to my folks to see my dad. Had a bath, went to bed. Simple.
Sunday – Walked up to the flat. It is officially summer. Prepared some shit for the day. Aidan picked me up, and we went to the depot for some Crush and the monkeys practising. We’ve decided to start learning some new songs, so we kicked the ball off with Sex on Fire. Piece of piss. Good jam..i don’t see these guys enough. Finished off and Aidan drove me to daves, for yet another band practise. They were playing before i had my earplugs in..thats some loud fucking shit. Damaging stuff. Ran the set, then drove up to the ark. Stood there for a while, went to burger king. I asked the girl what the £1.99 meal was. She said ‘Cheese burger or double cheese burger’..ok double cheeseburger. ‘£2.99 please’. You just said it was part of the £1.99 meal! Bloody hell. Back to the ark, and we went to the pub below. Mini Paramore was working on the bar. She poured dave a pint, and that was possibly the first pint she’s ever poured. Pretty funny watching, she obviously didn’t want me standing watching haha. Next one was better though! Went up, had a soundcheck, and played the gig to some people. Was alright, i spent alot of time on the drum riser. I couldn’t hear anything except kick drum. Maybe that’s cos i was on the drum riser. Still, pretty fucking loud. Jones gave me a lift back to the flat, and i went to bed. Excellent.
Next week – Someone give me a fucking job! Come on. Pancake Tuesday is gonna happen. Anyone want some pancakes, come on round! Little boots playing at cab vol on Thursday for free which i quite fancy. Its that time of year where all my bands play on the same night. Friday 27th - Marvels at sneaky petes 8.30... Arcane Corps at the Hive 9.45. both are about £5..if your loaded, then go to both..if your skint come to neither. If you have some money come to one, bear in mind.. The Marvels are indie..Arcane Corps are Metal. Saturday brings about pub golf. Sunday may well find me going to London to see Metallica. If someone would like to sponsor me, 50p a day can make a difference. I was well touched by an add on tv today, i almost sponsored a little girl, before realising i don’t have any money myself!
Rock on you crazy bastards.

You Really Love Me Underneath It All
Seriously got the ball rolling this week..Things are back on top! I still have no money, but its all sick as fuck! I don’t even know what happened at the weekend, it was good fun.
Monday – Up nice and early, having crashed at my folks. Sent some emails and stuff, headed into town for some job hunting. Time goes so quickly when your having fun. Theres not enough hours in the day! Back to the flat, very quick tea and off. Had an appointment to get rid of my friend Jemima. I don’t like hospitals. Their a wee bit scary. The woman went out the room, and came back with this machine which looked to me as if it was a laser cannon or something, I was like what the fuck is she doing to my knee! Turned out it was the worlds oldest polaroid camera. As smart as doctors are, I think their sometimes too smart for their own good. A question was, ‘Have you done anything to traumatise it?’. Yes.. I have actually, At least once a week I’ve been showing it videos of other things similar to it getting brutally destroyed… It’s a bit of fucking skin, how the fuck can I traumatise it????? Anyway, It was so big, she didn’t want to attempt to remove it herself – so I’ve been referred to a plastic surgeon! Haha. Give me a boob job too!
Tuesday – Up early again(ish) Went for a nice sprint. Headed into town and did some job hunting..usual script. Did some proper phoning about to try and get my laptop and phone fixed. The laptop folk have now realised they’ve sent me the wrong disc..and are now going to send me an almost identical one, except the last digit of the serial number is a 2 instead of 3. I’m sceptical that this will work. However.. they are the experts. They were trying to get me to extend my warranty aswell.. £80 a year..no thankyou.
Phone people were slightly more helpful, although my phones still not working properly. Arcane Corps practise at night! Pretty good fun! I just love bashing out that low C; It makes me feel alive. Can’t wait to get back gigging with them.
Wednesday – 730 start at work. I prefer to do early shifts, because it gives me the rest of the day to myself. The bad thing about the earlys, is that it’s always just me and a bunch of old folk, who lovely as they are, they talk aren’t much banter, and just talk a fair bit of nonsense. I was saved today by Daisy, who I’ve never really worked with before… She was pretty good banter – just helping me scope out the talent! Seems that there’s a fair amount of shit going down at the EICC these days..which I don’t think I’m really allowed to say here, since I technically “Don’t know” about it, and its some proper shit. Headed up to my folks and did some preparation for my trial lesson the next day. Made up some cool templates and shit like that. Ended up just crashing there, because again, time escaped me.
Thursday – the great thing about living in polwarth, if I have an early start at work, I can roll out of bed 15mins before my shift starts, and still make it on time. At hunters tryst, I am not afforded that luxury. Up over an hour before my shift starts, bloody knightmare(I’m aware I spelt that wrong, but it looks fucking cool!) Bloody buses mean I’m 20 mins early for my shift. Like old times, I walk past Emondo and Corrines there! OMG. Go in and chat to her, considering this is like the 2nd time I’ve seen her in like 6 months. I miss you corrine, where are you hiding! Also, whenever I walk past Emondo know, I never know anyone who works there.. occasionally Kristine, but I rarely see her! Anyway, on to work, and it was much the same as the day before. Joanna was my saviour today!
Went back to my flat to read my emails on my wii, and prepare for my lesson. Time somehow escaped me yet again! Ended up jumping in the shower, having a real stress about whether I was gonna make it to the lesson on time – not giving myself and margin for getting lost. Just when I thought I was fucked.. it came into sight! Cool lesson, taught the wee lad how to be a master of bass.
Back to the flat, ready for a sprint – nick makes me play fifa. Ah no time! Quick bowl of pasta, went to meet craig and marc in Chanter(I don’t know why, I was only there for 5 mins) Seen the guy from the View. Went down to bannermans and met laura. Had a quick drink, and headed into the mill. Hey, theres Roisin and Laura!! Not seen you guys in ages. Oh, your going to the hive… FINE il come. But I wish I didn’t have £40 in my wallet, cos I really cant afford to spend it. And if I go out with it in my wallet..chances are I will spend it.
Support band were decent..although basically background music. Broken records were really good. But this is one of the WORST audiences I have ever been a part of. Someone actually turned to Laura and said “If you are going to make noise, then you can go up the back” He then proceeded to spend the set standing there in his gay suit jacket and pink-striped shirt looking like a knob, not even clapping at the end of songs. The band asked “Why’s everyone so quiet?” (Being really quiet, and standing at the front) we shout ‘Cos that dick made us!!’ We spent the rest of the set totally ripping the piss out of him. It was so funny. I really hate gigs like this.. Don’t go to a gig to be cool.. go to have a good time, otherwise you ruin it for the real music fans! Some sour faced prick was standing behind us all the time with his arms crossed. Come on guys, get a grip.
Headed over to bannermans after, bumped into Justice, had a couple drinks then headed up to the hive! A word of warning – NEVER go to the hive on a Thursday. It was totally dead, which was fine – we were like we can just get drunk and listen to whatever music we want. i.e. Journey. Go up to the DJ, and he’s like “Na mate, only got Jungle with me innit.” NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. So we try to go to Cab Vol, only to be told come back in half an hour, cos roisins too drunk. Dunno about her, but Laura was 10 times more drunk than her haha. Went to opium for half an hour solid drinking, forgot about cab vol. Craig and Marc met us. Drank a fair whack. For some reason we went back to the hive..which is just shite on a Thursday. Laura was so trashed, it was great! I think I fell on the ground at some stage. Went home in a taxi via the all night bakery. I was determined to spend all my cash, so I paid for the taxi and the bakery. Went back and started watching music channels till 6am or something. Woke nick up who had work at 7. oops. I had never seen the video for Underneath It all, that’s a great song! Decided we should all get either pokemon red or blue – and 3 weeks from that night have a pokemon battle. Haha. Pikachu go!. Wandered about with my duvet on my head before going to bed.
Friday – Woke to discover Laura and Roisin had made a super sleeping bag by zipping two of our bags together. Haha. I like it. We were all so hungry, but all too hungover to move! Taped ‘Britney Spears: From the beginning’ Pure class. The girls were amazed by the fact I knew the order of Britney spears singles from the beginning. Common knowledge. Made some bacon rolls. Went into town to get my phone repaired. Was walking along princes street, seen a guy eating a Cadburys yoghurt. I thought, hmm what a strange thing to see. I then seen 2 more. Thought, hmm..interesting..they must be friends of his. Then I seen more and more and it dawned on me – They are giving them out! Quickly made my way along the street and got 1! I love them. Bumped into Claire, and discovered she’s a radio DJ. You think you know someone. Seen Marco and Carlo, I miss their banter..its crackin. Went into the phone shop, realising I had to leave to get to practise. Made it to practise about 10 mins late. Dave was over an hour late! I was not annoyed, because of his story – He first phoned me, saying ‘Just at princes street, will be 10 mins if I can get a bus soon’. 20 mins later, he phones me, saying ‘I can see the end of the road, but the bus is stuck in traffic, I wont be long.’ The practise room is at dalry. I spoke to him for a couple more mins, and it transpired that he couldn’t see the end of the road that the room is on…. He could see the end of a random road, and he was actually in easter road!! He then told me his bus would take no more than 10 minutes. I found this so funny that I wasn’t even slightly annoyed!
OK practise, was good at first – We were writing a classic tune. Then we realised it was an exact copy of Mountains by Biffy. Haha. We were so gutted that this seriously reduced morale. Headed up to the flat and had a few beers. Finally got a taxi up to studios, and went in for Justices Blues night. Blues musically typically sounds the same to me – but it was a different night from usual. Cheap drinks too! Headed homeward via Cappadoccia.
Saturday – Spent the day vegetating. I was somehow totally fucked from the night before. Watched 4 hours of Guitar Legends on MTV2, finally motivated myself to go and get a shop. Mike came up, we were gonna go to the cinema, but we realised maybe this wasn’t the best thing to do on Valentines day. We were then gonna go up to Claires, then hit the hive, but mike bailed. I almost fell asleep so I did.
Sunday – The three of us were up at like 830. I went for a run, nick made pancakes, and I’m not sure what craig did exactly. Old firm kicked off 1230. Not too exciting a game, 0-0. Watched some more football. Went down to the cinema to see B.I.G. I was gonna get a pass, but the woman told me I needed some photos and shit. So I was like fine, I’m not going to the cinema then! I’m not gonna pay £7 for 1 film, when I can pay £12 for infinity. Bumped into Kat, who’s going to South America soon! Crazy. Back up to the flat, and watched the Milan Derby(not Milan vs Derby). The commentary was 5 secs ahead of the footage, which got rather annoying when anyone took a shot! Watched some of Superbad(which is an excellent film!) then went to bed pretty early.
Next week – Mums birthday, hopefully this is the week I get a job. Oh I got that bass teaching job – So I’m now a fully qualified Bass teacher, I just need some students now! They shall come soon! Anyone?? Should have a couple interviews etc.. Maybe a haircut is in order. I’m totally skint, so won’t be spending much cash atall. Gig with Arcane Corps at the Ark on Sunday 22nd! If anyone fancies getting their metal on. Btw, check out I Haunt Wizards – Their pretty gay, but theres something really great about them!
Peace out!(what a crap phrase!)Btw, my phone is now in for repair – So please contact me on 07920408286!

Monday 9 February 2009
Out Of Cape Cod Tonigh
You know the script by now! Totally skint bla blabla. All the same, good week! And things are on the up – what goes up…
Monday – First things first, extended my overdraft so I can actually live. I was expecting to be gruelled by awkward questions. Can I extend my overdraft? ‘Yeah how much do you want?’.Piece of piss. Went for a shop and bought some food. Spent the day looking for a job etcetc.
Tuesday – Had an interview in the morning.went pretty well. Got totally lost on the way there tho, ended up sprinting about trinity for 15 mins. Watched last king of Scotland at night – that’s a crackin film. Just shows how much better the scots are than English bastards. Everyone knows it!! Haha. John came over and showed us the tune he was recording.
Wednesday – Up nice and early, John picked me up. Steel also jumped in fairly hammered from previous encounter. He told us about mikes absolutely comedic and embarrassingly amazing performance at the college gig the night before. Took about an hour to get to the college, because John had to pick up a hat and gloves from various places. Ripped into steel about how he’s shite at bass cos he has to use 3 fingers to play the triplets in raining blood..what a pussy! He got so worked up it was so funny. Into the studio, met Johnny Warner, good lad – not seen him in an age. They have some kick ass fucking gear in that studio, fuck. I put down a guide bass part for john to drum with.. but it was soon discovered my bass part was far superior mwuhaha. So it fucking should be aswell!! Only been playing for 5 years hah. It felt good to groove again, not been in a situation like that for a while – and its good to see I can still come out with a killer groove within 5 mins of hearing the tune. Grabbed some lunch with mike and steel, back into the studio for round two. I just observed. The tune was sounding pretty good, we ran out of time – but would’ve been good to chuck loadsof overdubs on it! John gave us a lift home – went up to mikes for a bit, then headed to mine to play some fifa – I kicked mikes ass(in one game)(compared to his 10). Watched everton Liverpool. Fairly dull game. Headed to Liquid room(faith) John got us in for free good lad. I only took £10 with me, so didn’t get that pished really. Good night tho – All they crazy folk from T were out! These two Chinese girls followed me about, like wherever I was dancing they were right behind me. But whenever I tried to talk to them they completely blanked me. I tried moving but they still followed me..i was like what the fuck is going on! Speak to me or leave me alone! Danced till about 230. Went outside and helped john bounce folk about. Mike went and took up a sniper position on the bridge. A French girl was like ‘Escuse, are eh a franz ferdinand u French band?’ I’m like na, their fucking Scottish you tool. Some guy was passed out in a sitting down position, I was gonna go and scream at him, but a random rapist made off with him. John gave us a lift home which was kind. Got home and raced craig at Mario kart – he beat me, which is why I shouldn’t compete against people when I’m drunk – I’m a useless drunk!
Thursday – Got up, and made possibly the worst decision ever. I went for a run, when I was hungover! My god. Got back, went to the dentist. Mis timed my departure, so I had to sprint. Met a twin. Made it to the dentist just in time. Metronomic drilling while listening to Lily Allen is not my idea of a good time. It was horrific. Cost me fucking £80 too. Although I guess its worth it if my teeth are gonna be fine from now on though. Spent the rest of the day in agony. Tried to sleep while watching midsummer murders. Although my eyes were shut, and I was in some weird state of mind where I could hear what they were saying, and I was imagining – quite vividly – what they were doing etc. Fucking shit like. Got up about 1745 and ran to work. Fairly pish shift. My mouth was so sore, and I was so tired. Met a friend of Kieran’s. Me and fraser were given the task of clearing the cromdale. Got in about 145. I had the aim of finishing by 3. Hammered it completely – had leiths helping us which was grand. They pissed off about 230, leaving us for the final hurdle. Although fraser had pissed off somewhere so I was left to work the lift myself. Finished just after 3. Neil then made us take 20 more tables out! Aaaah. Did it then got a taxi. Crazy taxi driver. He was like(in a Spanish/latino/American accent) ‘hey man, don’t laugh – but where the fuck is polwarth gardens?’ so I told him, but he wouldn’t listen. Then he stopped at a green light for like 2 mins before I told him to go. I was considering that he’d maybe had a couple dubes before jumping in the taxi. Hahahaha. Went to bed. TV at 330am is fucking shite btw – don’t watch it.
Friday – struggled out of bed about 2. went over to andys for a(very quick) practise. Quite funny – his room faces the point hotel – We could just see naked men standing at their windows. Haha. Headed along to Cab Vol for a sound check. Caught the end of the vivians soundcheck. Now – I don’t agree with their style, they look like a bunch of pillocks – and they are definitely not punk. They give punk a bad name, which isn’t saying much since a vast majority of punk music at the moment is derivative shite. However, they had some killer tunes. Went up to clamshell and used my tips from the night before to purchase a donner wrap. Tasty. Went to the tron, and met the guys from Smoked glass, as well as the college crew etc – went down and joined them. Decided that the only way my(friendly) rivalry with Johnny steel can be settled is if we have a duel on the slopes of mount doom(or Arthur seat) - with mike on north bridge with his sniper rifle covered in piss having been lying there for 2 days. He didn’t know which one to shoot cos we were moving so fast. Also, if you ever see a red dot on your body(from a sniper rifle- although come to think about it, do sniper rifles even have red dots?probably) put your hand on it, and the dot wont be on your body – thus letting you escape with only one of your hands being blown off, rather than your body. Haha ok. Headed down to cab vol. Drank some free beer, did some warm ups – played a killer set. Paparazzi were down the front – strike a pose. The boys from roughmute – who I’ve not seen since the days of billy liar were there. Came up to me and at first I didn’t recognise them. I knew their band began with an R and they were from Falkirk, I just couldn’t remember the name! Good lads, I miss them.
Left my bass in the kitchen, and went to the tron. This bird was fairly pished, and generally said nothing other than ‘I love this song’ ‘are you coming to my gig’ and ‘I love this song’. Haha. Good lassie. Ritchie downed a lady boy(Pint of guiness, GandT, and a Baileys) in 20.5 seconds. It was fairly impressive, considering what they do when they get mixed.
Headed up to the hive. Mike kept accidentally buying me drinks, oh no. haha. I got him a couple back though. Twins were there. It was amazing. And Swinton, and Alec and Sophie – EVERYONE. Boom, I miss it. Those fucking Chinese girls were there again! Aaahhaha. These American girls were chatting to us – it was their birthday. They promptly left when we told them hashy was our drug dealer. Except one, who was like ‘What do you sell?’ haha. U!S!A! Mike tried to fight someone, cos he was keeper of the peace. You rageaholic haha. Addicted to Rageahol. Fay was there – didn’t know she was back from Oz so was a shock. Spent most of the night catching up with her. Again I was skint, so I didn’t drink thaaaat much. Asked mick if I could borrow 50p, he didn’t have it so I started the minesweep. Kristen was totally goosed, I tapped her on the head and was like ‘Mini Para’, she goes ‘ughghggfuagugfj’ hahah. Helped Fay find her friends, then I had a power walk home, took me like 10mins. Decided I wanted to fall asleep listening to my ipod. 40mins later I realised this wasn’t working, so switched it off.
Saturday – Vegetated/Looked for a job. Went to pick up my bass from Cab V, took an age walking home, stopping off at various points of call.
Sunday – Watched some football. Absolutely humped craig at Mario kart in my sober state. Went up to my folks and had some lasagne.
Next week – Operation Execute Jemima enters Phase 2. Quite fancy going to see broken records on thu. Epicly trying to secure a Job. Not sure what plans for the weekend are, but I’m sure I shall have some. Orevoir.
Monday – First things first, extended my overdraft so I can actually live. I was expecting to be gruelled by awkward questions. Can I extend my overdraft? ‘Yeah how much do you want?’.Piece of piss. Went for a shop and bought some food. Spent the day looking for a job etcetc.
Tuesday – Had an interview in the morning.went pretty well. Got totally lost on the way there tho, ended up sprinting about trinity for 15 mins. Watched last king of Scotland at night – that’s a crackin film. Just shows how much better the scots are than English bastards. Everyone knows it!! Haha. John came over and showed us the tune he was recording.
Wednesday – Up nice and early, John picked me up. Steel also jumped in fairly hammered from previous encounter. He told us about mikes absolutely comedic and embarrassingly amazing performance at the college gig the night before. Took about an hour to get to the college, because John had to pick up a hat and gloves from various places. Ripped into steel about how he’s shite at bass cos he has to use 3 fingers to play the triplets in raining blood..what a pussy! He got so worked up it was so funny. Into the studio, met Johnny Warner, good lad – not seen him in an age. They have some kick ass fucking gear in that studio, fuck. I put down a guide bass part for john to drum with.. but it was soon discovered my bass part was far superior mwuhaha. So it fucking should be aswell!! Only been playing for 5 years hah. It felt good to groove again, not been in a situation like that for a while – and its good to see I can still come out with a killer groove within 5 mins of hearing the tune. Grabbed some lunch with mike and steel, back into the studio for round two. I just observed. The tune was sounding pretty good, we ran out of time – but would’ve been good to chuck loadsof overdubs on it! John gave us a lift home – went up to mikes for a bit, then headed to mine to play some fifa – I kicked mikes ass(in one game)(compared to his 10). Watched everton Liverpool. Fairly dull game. Headed to Liquid room(faith) John got us in for free good lad. I only took £10 with me, so didn’t get that pished really. Good night tho – All they crazy folk from T were out! These two Chinese girls followed me about, like wherever I was dancing they were right behind me. But whenever I tried to talk to them they completely blanked me. I tried moving but they still followed me..i was like what the fuck is going on! Speak to me or leave me alone! Danced till about 230. Went outside and helped john bounce folk about. Mike went and took up a sniper position on the bridge. A French girl was like ‘Escuse, are eh a franz ferdinand u French band?’ I’m like na, their fucking Scottish you tool. Some guy was passed out in a sitting down position, I was gonna go and scream at him, but a random rapist made off with him. John gave us a lift home which was kind. Got home and raced craig at Mario kart – he beat me, which is why I shouldn’t compete against people when I’m drunk – I’m a useless drunk!
Thursday – Got up, and made possibly the worst decision ever. I went for a run, when I was hungover! My god. Got back, went to the dentist. Mis timed my departure, so I had to sprint. Met a twin. Made it to the dentist just in time. Metronomic drilling while listening to Lily Allen is not my idea of a good time. It was horrific. Cost me fucking £80 too. Although I guess its worth it if my teeth are gonna be fine from now on though. Spent the rest of the day in agony. Tried to sleep while watching midsummer murders. Although my eyes were shut, and I was in some weird state of mind where I could hear what they were saying, and I was imagining – quite vividly – what they were doing etc. Fucking shit like. Got up about 1745 and ran to work. Fairly pish shift. My mouth was so sore, and I was so tired. Met a friend of Kieran’s. Me and fraser were given the task of clearing the cromdale. Got in about 145. I had the aim of finishing by 3. Hammered it completely – had leiths helping us which was grand. They pissed off about 230, leaving us for the final hurdle. Although fraser had pissed off somewhere so I was left to work the lift myself. Finished just after 3. Neil then made us take 20 more tables out! Aaaah. Did it then got a taxi. Crazy taxi driver. He was like(in a Spanish/latino/American accent) ‘hey man, don’t laugh – but where the fuck is polwarth gardens?’ so I told him, but he wouldn’t listen. Then he stopped at a green light for like 2 mins before I told him to go. I was considering that he’d maybe had a couple dubes before jumping in the taxi. Hahahaha. Went to bed.

More Than A Feeling
Good weekend. Didn’t do much throughout the week.. just trying to get a job. Trying to fix my laptop, phone, money situation. Somehow, even though i was unable to withdraw any money..i still managed to get suitably pished since i’ve got some immense friends who buy me loads of shit. Once i get some money, i’m gonna take everyone out for steaks. Onwards..
Monday – Didn’t do too much – scoured the internet for jobs etc..its all made fairly tricky by the fact that my laptop doesn’t switch on. Good fun.
Tuesday – Same script, working until 10 – Sammy the Salmon was in. He was about half an hour late. Leaving 300 people upstairs becoming slightly agitated. Craig met me after, and we went up to Biblos for Beccas birthday. Twas alright, but we didn’t know anyone. Claire was there, wearing a swimsuit. Funny. Headed home.. and i had to get a kebab. Cappadoccia is our king. Ace.
Wednesday – There was a gig at cab vol which i quite fancied going to.. but in the end i couldn’t really be bothered. Just chilled to the next episode.
Thursday – Working all day. Had some national heroes in, including that bird that wears a cloak and runs about the woods, Rebbeca Hadlington – Signing a book, and some paralyimpic heroes. Charlie Granleese set up a stand aswell and signed fans of the dalry speed lane. Didn’t do much that night, i think i may have watched some shite film.
Friday – Had a band practise with the marvels, was alright – dave forgot about it so turned up 40 minutes late! Not a bad practise. Pretty cool. Started drinking with craig in the flat about 6ish, just watching music tv. Met Steel and Bookta on the bus, and we went down to the new Yorker. Mike bought me drinks and a pool membership. Craig and mike had a royal rumble, last one standing on the pool table wins. It was booring.I got given an Oscar for being the best pool player. I hammered mike. Even though i was a little tipsy, and i couldn’t distinguish the white from yellow. I tried to hit the yellow. So funny. I’m not sure how i was playing so badly. I used my geometry skills to ensure victory. Everytime im at the new Yorker, theres always drinks lined up. So i’m never without a drink. Reebo and mini paramore came down too. Got a taxi to the hive, downing cider in the back. Had to que for aaages. Mike paid me in and bought me loadsof drinks – good lad. Hive was usual script, although i think it was the first time i’ve ever stayed till the end. Cos i wasn’t that drunk. Still drunk tho. I had my get your rat out t shirt, so lots of people got their rats out for me. Standing at the cocktail bar(why is there a cocktail bar in the hive?) some girl turned round and gave me a B52 bomber..which was very nice. Tried chatting to her later, turned out her boyfriend knew me as thrasher, and he worshipped the ground that me and fisher walk on. He wouldn’t tell me his name tho. Leanne went to the bar, and came back with her ear bleeding profusely(medical term for a medical student boom). I was like how did that happen, ‘i got my ear pierced’ At the bar???? What kindof bar is this! It was so funny, and we all got covered in aids. It just keeps bleeding, keeps keeps bleeding. Paramore didn’t seem happy that she was getting called paramore..so hence forth i knight thee with the name LUCY. Me and craig headed home, met john at faith. Walked up to cappadoccia and watched/helped john eat a kebab.
Saturday – Woke up, slightly hungover and decided i would play Zelda, which i hadn’t played since last Sunday. This is when i made a horrifying discovery. I had been robbed. Someone had been in my room one day, seen that i had an N64 WITH expansion pak. They had come back the following day. And swapped it for an identical N64 WITHOUT the expansion pak. Its maybe worth £10, but WHY THE FUCK WOULD ANYONE DO THIS?? I was in disbelief. WHOM? I just can’t get over why this has happened. It means i can’t play Zelda. It makes no sense how anyone could do this. I mean come on. Fuck.
Spent the rest of the day wondering how the fuck this could have happened. Went up to the tron to meet aidan and nikita. Headed down to cab vol to see Boycotts – Aidan bought me some drinks. Expensive drinks. Boycotts, shit hot – probably the best i’ve seen them. The guy that was reviewing them guffed halfway through the set. Up to the tron, aij bought me some more drinks..thankyou. Nikki met us, and We bumped into Lucy and her friend Annabel. Now, i’ve generally stopped doing the whole ‘i’m called crusher because when i get really angry i crush a baby’s skull with my bare hand’ thing when i meet people. However, for whatever reason, i sensed that Annabel was a little gullable.(i’m sorry!) i fed her the story ‘when i was born, my parents didn’t know what to call me, i wasn’t an immediate ‘John’ or ‘Patrick’. So i was nameless for about a month, when one day, with my little baby hands, i crushed a can of coke into pieces – And my parents were just like ‘Thats our baby, Crusher’. She was totally buying it, then nikita was just like ‘Na he’s talking shite, his names Chris Usher’. Gaelic football was on the tv, and i swear to god that is the craziest game invented. A mix of football, rugby and basketball. The goals have a net, and a set of rugby posts. Who the fuck invented it? Also, the scoreline was like ‘Dublin 2-15 Cork-1-12’ What the fuck does that mean?? Haha. Love it. We’re gonna start a team. Went down to cab and watched Ritalin kids. Their a barry band like. Harry is our ginger god. He’s just immense to watch. They take my favourite bits of muse, and make songs out of them.(i.e. Caves) Enjoyed it like i enjoy good shit. Me aij and nikki went up to maisies party with bottle of vodka. Got there, and started pouring. Now, me and aidan have a game harking back to berlin, introduced by sasha. It goes 123,1234. Generally quite a quick count. Nikki did it, but counted extremely slowly.. so our(fairly small wine glasses) had about 80% vodka, and literally like a splash of coke. The coke was diluted, it wasn’t even black! Nikki got fucked fairly quickly, i miss drunk nikki! Its so funny. She constructed a suit of armour made of baking paper. A helmet from a bag. Armed with a spatchela and a colander. So funny hahaha. They both went to the hive – but i was like na im staying to get crunk(shite word like – it means crazy drunk). Got smashed, and don’t remember what happened, although i think at one stage i was hanging maisie out of her window by her ankles. Walked down the road with laura at about 5 or so. Got back and had a pizza. Fucked. Thanks for drink aidan.
Sunday – Crush and the monkeys practise at daves. We were all fairly rough. Good fun. Video’d a few tunes which is cool, except i can’t get it on the computer cos the usb port is fucked. I’ve decided that since i can never remember what happens at T in the park well enough to blog it, i’m gonna take a video camera for extreme video bloggage. Went up to my folks for some tea and stuff.
Next week, still struggling onwards with no funds or anything..i hate it. All the same, still enjoying myself. Prospect of a job comes closer, an agonising encounter with he tooth fairy, and a gig. Bye bye.

I Fly Like Paper
Well, this takes the saying ‘Living in poverty’ to a whole new level. Looking at my bank account after the weekend… I was within £40 of my overdraft limit..woohoo. Anyhow, when theres a wok theres a womb..turned out to be a fairly crazy weekend, and I still managed to fill my quota of takeaway food!
Monday – My laptop is still totally cunted, developments have happened, but only making it worse and costing me money. Visited my parents to use their computer facilities. Trying to do my cv up etc so I can get a job that actually gives me enough money to pay the rent. I was gonna go watch Architects but turned out I had a band practise. Maybe this was Tuesday actually. Anyway, didn’t manage to make it and fairly gutted since they sound awesome.
Tuesday – Same story really, except without the architects. May have had another band practise. WOOOO. I wish one of my bands would do something interesting.. boredom is setting in.
Wednesday – Who knows, who cares..not much happened but it was all good.
Thursday – Went for a vegetarian all you can eat curry with my dad for lunch.. I would have quite like a nice chicken dish in there, but that said, it was a pretty good feed. Met Ben and we went to guitar guitar to sort some shit out for him, case wise etc. I had a look at things I could touch but not buy, and caught up with Billy and Chris. John, Tristan and Rory came up to the flat, which was particularly nice since I hadn’t seen Trist or Rozza in months. Had a few beers, and they managed to convince me(john dangled money in front of me) to go to Lulu. Rory was fairly smashed by the time we left the flat, having not touched alcohol in over three months. Taxi to Lulu, arrived 10 mins before it opened so we went to Candy Bar for 1. Bar girl wouldn’t serve us cos Rozza asked her for ‘4 coronas and a kiss’. bitch. Next girl gave us some shots so it was all good. Into lulu and hammered the drinks down us. This continued for a while. Trist was the first to bail, calmly throwing up at the table full of people WHOM we were sitting with. As john tells me, I lasted till about 230 then got thrown out for being hammered. Good fun. Lost my Jumper in the process.
Friday – Woke up fairly cunted, realised I had a band practise shortly. Hurried down, turned out the singer was 1 and a half hours late. Not very good in my books when I could’ve had an extra 1 and a half hours in bed. So I went in search of a lunchtime Chinese, then watched youtube videos with Stu and Dave. After a while Mick turned up and we realised what happens when you don’t practise for 2 months. You turn shite. Went home and slept. Grabbed a kebab, Aidan, Dom and mike came over and we got a couple films from blockbuster(first time I’ve been there for years). There was a conversation about keeping a tesco delivery driver in the flat to make pancakes for minimum wage. Always. Pineapple Express was pretty fucking funny like. So much unnecessary violence. Loads of sweets and reeeaaaallly cold profiteroles.
Saturday – Went to watch the Huns game with Nick, shite game. Nick got possibly the best looking Gammon Steak I have ever seen. I had a barely average Steak Pie. Gutted. Nick was finishing his pint, and we were just about to leave..when the celtic game came on Taliban Tv. Pints in. Hoops scored within 5 mins, and we realised it wasn’t a good idea to shout out loud when there was a group of fairly big, very hammered hibees next to our table. Back to the flat, John, Aids and Trist came round and we started drinking. Got some pizzas, and the pizza man tried to out do us, so we outdid him. Fucking good pizzas though. Suited up. Taxi to Ashleighs..Possibly the best house I’ve ever been in. The ‘Porch’ had a snooker table, cinema, kitchen, toilet, Jacuzzi. (no Jacuzzi, but I think that was on one of the other 4 floors!) Great. Stayed there for a while, had possibly the longest game of pool ever. Some guy who was being a dick to john came over and was like ‘I’m a dick’ so we were like, yeah we know you are..DICK. Went to Opal Lounge where it was £8 to get in.. my monetary situation was not getting any better. We were in the VIP section, but couldn’t get in after going to the toilet. Me and Aids went to hive, met Lucy who was gonna get us in for free and que skip. I got us the que skip, cos the bounce knows me as a Bassslut. It was a massive que too. No free entry for us though..not too chuffed, that brought my total in entry fees for the night to £12. Hammered down the cheap drinks, danced with people who I may or may not know. I Certainly recognised them, but I couldn’t tell you who they were. Harrys birthday too! Ran home after that.
Sunday – Slept until about half past four, then went up to my folks for some Haggis..i love haggis.
Next week continues the string of poverty.. its fucking great. Going to see Boycotts/Ritalin kids at a free gig Cab Vol gig on Saturday – if anyone fancies it? Then heading to Maisies new flat for a party after that! Bringing crush and the monkeys back into the fray on Sunday!! Oh yes.
Monday – My laptop is still totally cunted, developments have happened, but only making it worse and costing me money. Visited my parents to use their computer facilities. Trying to do my cv up etc so I can get a job that actually gives me enough money to pay the rent. I was gonna go watch Architects but turned out I had a band practise. Maybe this was Tuesday actually. Anyway, didn’t manage to make it and fairly gutted since they sound awesome.
Tuesday – Same story really, except without the architects. May have had another band practise. WOOOO. I wish one of my bands would do something interesting.. boredom is setting in.
Wednesday – Who knows, who cares..not much happened but it was all good.
Thursday – Went for a vegetarian all you can eat curry with my dad for lunch.. I would have quite like a nice chicken dish in there, but that said, it was a pretty good feed. Met Ben and we went to guitar guitar to sort some shit out for him, case wise etc. I had a look at things I could touch but not buy, and caught up with Billy and Chris. John, Tristan and Rory came up to the flat, which was particularly nice since I hadn’t seen Trist or Rozza in months. Had a few beers, and they managed to convince me(john dangled money in front of me) to go to Lulu. Rory was fairly smashed by the time we left the flat, having not touched alcohol in over three months. Taxi to Lulu, arrived 10 mins before it opened so we went to Candy Bar for 1. Bar girl wouldn’t serve us cos Rozza asked her for ‘4 coronas and a kiss’. bitch. Next girl gave us some shots so it was all good. Into lulu and hammered the drinks down us. This continued for a while. Trist was the first to bail, calmly throwing up at the table full of people WHOM we were sitting with. As john tells me, I lasted till about 230 then got thrown out for being hammered. Good fun. Lost my Jumper in the process.
Friday – Woke up fairly cunted, realised I had a band practise shortly. Hurried down, turned out the singer was 1 and a half hours late. Not very good in my books when I could’ve had an extra 1 and a half hours in bed. So I went in search of a lunchtime Chinese, then watched youtube videos with Stu and Dave. After a while Mick turned up and we realised what happens when you don’t practise for 2 months. You turn shite. Went home and slept. Grabbed a kebab, Aidan, Dom and mike came over and we got a couple films from blockbuster(first time I’ve been there for years). There was a conversation about keeping a tesco delivery driver in the flat to make pancakes for minimum wage. Always. Pineapple Express was pretty fucking funny like. So much unnecessary violence. Loads of sweets and reeeaaaallly cold profiteroles.
Saturday – Went to watch the Huns game with Nick, shite game. Nick got possibly the best looking Gammon Steak I have ever seen. I had a barely average Steak Pie. Gutted. Nick was finishing his pint, and we were just about to leave..when the celtic game came on Taliban Tv. Pints in. Hoops scored within 5 mins, and we realised it wasn’t a good idea to shout out loud when there was a group of fairly big, very hammered hibees next to our table. Back to the flat, John, Aids and Trist came round and we started drinking. Got some pizzas, and the pizza man tried to out do us, so we outdid him. Fucking good pizzas though. Suited up. Taxi to Ashleighs..Possibly the best house I’ve ever been in. The ‘Porch’ had a snooker table, cinema, kitchen, toilet, Jacuzzi. (no Jacuzzi, but I think that was on one of the other 4 floors!) Great. Stayed there for a while, had possibly the longest game of pool ever. Some guy who was being a dick to john came over and was like ‘I’m a dick’ so we were like, yeah we know you are..DICK. Went to Opal Lounge where it was £8 to get in.. my monetary situation was not getting any better. We were in the VIP section, but couldn’t get in after going to the toilet. Me and Aids went to hive, met Lucy who was gonna get us in for free and que skip. I got us the que skip, cos the bounce knows me as a Bassslut. It was a massive que too. No free entry for us though..not too chuffed, that brought my total in entry fees for the night to £12. Hammered down the cheap drinks, danced with people who I may or may not know. I Certainly recognised them, but I couldn’t tell you who they were. Harrys birthday too! Ran home after that.

Let Us Gingerly Touch Our Tips
Another relatively quiet week.. with an absolutely mad for it weekend to make up for it...mad for it!!
Monday - Busy busy shift at work.. pretty much constant, even had to stay back for 10mins.. I even broke a sweat, and my legs got a bit tired. good fun, being back in the fun house. As soon as i finished, still knackered i ran home.. made some crap tea, then ran down to band practise. First practise of the year. Arcane Corps, i was totally out of practise, and couldnt really be arsed with it..however.. it was completely refreshing to be pounding out some hardcore metal, and i think thats the best i've felt in a while. GREAT.
Tuesday - Working in the morning..cant remember the ins and outs of it, but ultimately i went home at 1. cant be bad. Still trying to fix my laptop..aaaaah. I'm getting proper stressed about this. As far as i remember i had an early night. Watched more lord of the rings..honestly, they are ace.
Wednesday - Spent the day fixing my laptop, no luck..AAAH. I wish i had some money.. even just like £200. rubbish. Went to the Cinema with Aid, Mike and Para, aidan insisted on bringing the car, instead of leaving it at the flat. Who goes to the cinema on wednesday??(everyone, its fucking orange wednesday you tweedle twoongas!) 20 mins on yeaman place in a que of traffic. We were going to see Slumdog Millionaire, i didnt know what it was about, but i saw 4 pictures on the internet and thought it looked shite. Luckily, it was sold out. So we went to see Role Models! Me and Aidan got in for like £2 each cos its orange wed. Great. Its an absolutely amazing film, so funny. The wee black kid is so funny..its amazing. 2 couples stayed in the cinema after the film had finished..way after. we laughed.
Thursday - blablabla, tried to fix my laptop blablabla. Stinas dad came and picked up my bass amp. Went to see Stinas gig at night. Met up with Nikita first, headed to the gig fairly early. Up to this point, i had not had one drink since aidans birthday. Got to the bar, 'shall we have one?' hmm..well.. only £3.40..OK! Just one. One pint in..hmm..'kindof getting a taste for this' hmm..me too..one more? thus passed the sobriety of the herald usher. PISHED. We moved through to the gig room, and the barman came and asked us ' did you leave a jacket at the table through there? i said no, i have my jacket here. Nikki joined us, we watched stinas band who are fairly shit hot. Boycotts, check em out bitch. speaking to Joe afterwards..how long has he lived in glasgow..he's a total wedge(as in wedgie, not a wedge of cheese..how do you spell weeg..is that it?) i laughed. Nikki was wearing my hat, and then she was like..'crusher, wheres your hat?' we looked round and seen some guy at the far end of the bar wearing it. kicked his cunt in with words. Andy phoned me, informing me it was his birthday and they were going to Cab Vol. Met them en route. We were in there for about 20 mins..maybe slightly longer..who knows. Mick got thrown out for going up to a couple who were pulling, and started fighting them.. Not suprising is it. But funny nonetheless. Headed up to the hive instead. Good banter, dont remember much, other than drinking vodka, jager and eating kebabs. Good times.
Friday - Woke up feeling disgustingly hungover. Spent the day wallowing, and watching lord of the rings. Work party tonight.. Aidan was my date..haha. A few of us met in thompsons first of all for a few pints, listened to some of Nigs jokes. I was struggling with the pints. Headed up to the conference centre for some good champagne. hammered it down proper style, then went down to the cromdale. We were at a table with Wils Anderson, Hadley and his bird..not a bad table by any means. Salmon was the starter, i dont like salmon, i complained for a while then eat it. There was so much wine at the table, and since there was only 6 of us there then there was loaaaaadds. I was drinkin it like juice. boom. After dinner we were talking to Jayne, when our table almost went on fire.. uh oh. I blew it out, and hot wax went everywhere. I got a nice burn on my face. lol. There was some stroke inducing truffles at our table, so funny to eat. great. the VIetch man had put a bottle of mount gay rum behind the bar for us.. had a couple of them, very nice. Played some wii, watched some prizes being one. spent a lot of time at the bar hammering double vodkas down my gullet. mike kept phoning us, saying 'im on my way, leave now' we were like no.. 20 mins later he phones being like i'm outside your work come and get me. i managed a stealth mission, which involved tranquilizing 3 security guards and killing 1(i hid their body in a bin) but somehow, i got him in. more vodka, more vodka, there was talk of shots, but i dont remember what happened with that. my last memory is seeing the clock at 1130, thinking last orders would be soon. I dont remember leaving the hall, never mind the building. apparently we were in there till after 1, had a bottle of champagne that hadley won us in the quiz, and wilson went round all the tables collecting wine that people hadnt drunk. Hahaha excellent night. We apparently went to henrys, i dont know who with. Or what happened. i have no memory.
Saturday - Total vegetation day, moved (or rather craig did cos i couldnt walk straight) my tv into my room, set up N64 and PS2, plugged in Majoras mask and fired it up. Amazing. At this point, i couldnt remember leaving the conference centre, i didnt have a clue what happened after. Phoned a few people to try and put the pieces together. Had a chinese. Carrie was playin at cab vol, so went to the tron and met Lucy, Stungun and Rafiki. We then headed down to cab vol where wils and aij were. Carrie played. Thats probably the best i've seen her. She seemed pished, was talking absolute shite, and it was good cos she got everyone laughing! Although..trying to get the audience to sing along to a new song she couldnt even remember the melody for took things to a new level 'i'm a dragon, i'm a dragon, come on everyone!' hahahah. She said she wasnt pished..but who knows. Aidan, Lucy Stun and Raf came up to the flat, and we got pished. Courtesy of aidan. over 3 bottles of vod yes. Steel joined us, as did para and her mate lucy, creating the 3L club. watched SNAKES ON A MOTHER FUCKING PLANE. nothing too interesting happened, just got well drunk.
Sunday - bombsite. watched football, eat a kebab, went to bed. boom.
Next week - i have no money guys, its fucking shite. i need a new job. not much planned for the week, see what happens!! Im sure crazy shit will happen. Anyone wanna give me cash????Bye. btw, vampire weekend are quite cool.
Monday - Busy busy shift at work.. pretty much constant, even had to stay back for 10mins.. I even broke a sweat, and my legs got a bit tired. good fun, being back in the fun house.

This Isn't A Tomb, It's A Womb
Quiet week - After the mentalness of the festive period/Aidans birthday, i took almost 2 weeks off drinking/going out! Necessary.
Monday - Last day of the holiday, as far as i can remember i relaxed.
Tuesday - First day back at work, 4 of us had been brought in for a 1 o clock start, had a power lunch in the canteen. The whole shift, we had 1 massive box to move..that was it! Great fun spent hiding, catching up with people etc. Good.
Wednesday - Another day off, cant remember what i did(cos it was ages ago), probably not much though.
Thursday - Working in the morning, worked till 1 oclock. Fertility conference..hmm..lots of fertile females..very nice. Getting up to start at 8 that morning was the hardest thing iv had to do, because i hadnt had to do that since before christmas. Set my alarm for 630, giving me time for a shower and some breakfast. I stumbled out of bed at 740, threw on my clothes and sprinted along the street. Good job.
Friday - Same shift again. good fun. I had a meeting with the bank, it was good fun, and ultimately pointless. . I cant remember what i did that night, potentially tried to start watching the lord of the rings boxset. I finished my book so i used that as a book. Spent the next 2 weeks watching it!(thats a lie, because i dont think i started watching it til saturday!)
Saturday - Went up to my folks to pick up this nice new recording device i bought. It's very nice. Although i broke my laptop installing microsoft XP so i've still not used it. But once i get it up and running i'm gonna record some epic tunes. Aidan and Mike came up to the flat, we played some fifa..I dont think i lost a game I am the absolute master..anyone wants to try and take me on and i'l kick your cunt in. We were heading to the Cinema to see Role Models, it started at 8.40, but we didnt leave til 8.40. Figured, who actually goes to the cinema on a saturday night..noones that boring are they?? Turns out, just cos we haven't ever gone to the cinema on a saturday night, doesen't mean that noone else does..actually EVERYONE goes to the cinema on a saturday night!!It was sold out. Managed to get like the last three tickets to see defiance, in a cinema where we were sitting under the screen, and at a concave angle to the screen. Defiance was really good, but we were in the mood for a comedy, and it's not a comedy.Still, really good though.. I particularly like Daniel Craigs attempt to be Belarusian. Back to the flat after and i started watching lord of the rings. Promptly fell asleep.
Sunday - Spent the entire day trying to fix my laptop, no luck whatsoever. Its still fucked to this day.
So concludes the fellowship of the ring. The next week was generally spent trying to fix my laptop. It's not fixed, i have no money and i had to buy recovery CD's for £25 which still haven't arrived yet. I'm starting to be completely raging. Going to see Stinas gig on thursday, then work party on friday, and something unknown on saturday(even though it has actually happened mwyehahaha)
