Ian Brown

On saturday neet I went and watched Ian Brown at the Liverpool Accadamy. Me and me mate drove in parked up went for a dogey kebab and set about finding the place which infact was up Mount Plesant and did not look like a venue at all in my opinon. We waited inthe guest list que since we wherement to be on it...When it turns out that the surport act ( who where very good" forgot to put us on even though we ended up talking to them after the gig.
So we ended up having to pay over-the-top prices for tickets( 35 quid) and joined the line which went quite fast, After we got searched we went and got a bevvy, can of carling in a pint glass, Thought to myself OK....then when I found out the price. 3 pounds and 50 pence ofthe queens finest. Fucking rip off...then again we where in Liverpool not to mention any sterotypes of scousers!)
We then went and got a decent spec to watch the gig and The Shocks opened who where actually quite a good band dispite me missing most of there act due to decided I fancyed a drink and getting two Red Bulls for the price of 6 quid!.
After The Shocks went off had a chat with me mate and then it was time for the act of the neet, Mr.Brown who I have to say was on top form! set list was mixed but the tracks which made my night where as follows:

F.E.A.R

Stellifly

Marathon Man

Own Brain

Keep what you got

Fools Gold.

He had a few little blips which I did not think where to bad for Ian Brown, He fucked up the intro to Own Brain and had to start again and missed a note in Marathon Man not to much to mention like.

He ended up finishing on Fools Gold which was fucking amazing!

Classic terrace rumblings.....

Just some pictures of the terrace rumblings that used to happen in the beautiful game that we all know and love ( or to some of the older lot, loved.)

Photography.....

Here is some pictures of my photography work, some of it is not to bad if you ask me.
Its just a little hobby of mine I like taking pictures of the mix of urban and rural surroundings that yours truly lives in.

Yet another purchase

Traded a LL Bean mainstate parka ( very nice coat with some great details) with a coat that I have been wanting for quite some time...




The jacket itself has some very nice details from the house check lining on the inside of the jacket plus the hood, which is mesh. The hood itself is zip away so if you prefer the look of the jacket with out the hood then you can wear it like that i myself prefer it with the hood out, It also has a velcro throat tab which is a really nice peice of detailin in my humble.
It has quite a few nice concieled pockets which is nice for the cigs and phone etc.
