Midweek Meanderings ....

... all human life might be in this one - I'll start it at 1945 - and I might well come back to it as the night goes on. Here's a pic from last Saturday morning - if you got off the London train at Manchester Piccadilly at about 1030 - you've been filmed !! I've blurred out "PC David Bailey" in order to (hopefully) prevent that "knock on the door at two in the morning" - but as it was also Labour Party Conference up here - doesn't the guy adjacent to plod look like David Blunkett (sans dog and stick and "alleged floozy" though !!)




Jalbum is being a bugger at the moment - trying to add a picture to

http://mossleysmiffy.jalbum.net/BuffetBarConservatory2/

but it's not playing ball - yes 7 days on and the only action is .... the skip's gone - so here it is (or isn't !!)



..and yeah - they missed a bit !!

2140 update - note change to Buffet Bar link - seems to add the extra pic if you rename the bloomin file....

Music - now music - this week of course - well Friday - sees one of Smiffy's regular pilgrimages to see if DragonForce can match up to their December 2006 gig at the Manchester Academy - fingers crossed - the two "knock-out" tracks on the new album (for me anyway) are "The Last Journey Home" and "Inside the Winter Storm" can only find Heroes of Our Time on YouTube though - trusty BabyFuji will be in attendance at said Academy as well. UPDATE - OK I lied - just found Last Journey Home. (2215 - Seek and ye shall - Inside the Winter Storm).

Got a txt off daughter today asking if I fancied some "Aussie Stadium Rock" in November - quick confirmation revealed this to be Airbourne - so I said yes (or should that be "yeahhhhhh" ?) - I'd heard the name via some spammy emails from TicketLine/Master/Servant - so tonight I checked out a few YouTubes of said Antipodean Beat Combo - and by jove they make AC/DC sound like Jet (even though I like Jet as well !!!). Check out Airbourne - Too Fast - one of several - a quick trip to hmv.com secured a copy of "Running Wild" - fingers crossed the gig tkts are suitably purchased - early November should be a good music week - two days before Airbourne I have the pleasure of Todd Rundgren, also at Manc Academy !!
