  • Lazin' on a sunny afternoon

    Well no actually it hasnt been particularly sunny but the other bit is spot on, since the yeti gig a whole week ago now I have been very lathargic (good word). Ive spent most days waking up in the early hours of the afternoon then playing a bit on the computer, chatting to various people on msn sometimes for 8hours straight....

     

    Ive really got to start doing something with my holiday so that I dont just wear it away like i have done for the last few years, I doubt I will be going on any form of a holiday this year due to the stubborness of both my parents wanting what they want and not willing to compromise and I refuse to be used as an arguing tool so next time I am confronted in this manner I will make it clear that Im not gonna go anywhere with people acting like that, it will be the great holiday boycott of 2005.

     

    ok so over the next few days I am gonna make a more concerted effort to do something with my dreary days, so guys i know you all read this now, what shall we do.. a game of footy in the park.. a film.. or a good old fashioned booze up, im guessin it'll be the third but at least its gettin out of the house.

     

    thats it BYE - and everyone buy the yeti single - keep pushing on

    out August 29th

    and for that matter fuck forever shud be comin out August 8th, get that too

  • KOKO @ Camden

    Well due to Wednesday being such a great day I thought it only right that I should make plans to attend the gig at the KOKO club on 4th August. And this time I am telling my mates with a good week and a halfs notice rather than the 2 days I gave last time and already that is looking to be paying off with one saying its a good chance he will come (I havnt yet told him about the 2am finish but we'll work on tht).

     

    Yeti are rapidly moving up amongst my favourite bands. My favourite track of theirs, om not sure yet it was never lose your sense of wonder, then merry go round but since the gig in like with you and keep pushing on are in there aswell, its too close to call - but I have to point out that John Hassall although brilliant in every way is still no Pete Doherty, he may be playing silly buggers with drugs but he is still the most legendary legend ever.

     

    As far as bits that I left out of the last blog, beer spilling over myself - thank you miss rachael I did leave it out for a reason, although it wasnt my fault I was making my way through a very crowded pub holding too full to the top pints, just because laura was using me as a battering ram to give her an easy path through just not fair.

    Yes the skirt made entirely of ties was indeed very impressive, the colours were lovely but the twirl to show it off could have used some improvement

    Photographer who I believe goes by the name of Malcolm was mad, he let PNB get hold of the camera I mean I just dont understand it, but apart from that he did take some good pictures, I'm sure he wont mind me advertising them www.mckipper.co.uk go to the bit about Yeti of course. Although he didnt manage to put up any of the direct pictures of us as a group I do believe I found myself in one of them, yes that tall gangly figure behind the pole, unless im mistaken it is me.

    Umm short people with funny names and sommat about Jesus I cant remember and my trainers are old but trustworthy so dont mock them

     

    Thats about it for now, to Cait, Rachael, Laura and whatever the names were of all the others, hope to see you all at KOKO, farewell

  • Yeti of course

    Well lets just start this by saying all my mates are lazy arseholes who are all wankers, but now that weve got that out the way we can start about the gig.

     

    The journey up there was admittedly a tad long but I dont care it was worth it. Me and PNB got into the Boogaloo pub at around 7:30 and started as we meant to go on, getting in a few drinks. Old Laura came in a bit later already half bladdered from her bottle of gin. Then introduced us to a bunch of fine young ladies. Although I think John was a bit too much to handle on the first meeting for most of them. Me being the shy old soul that i am only talked to john and the lovely Laura

     

    When the warm up band came on I was thinking at least we're getting started but in fact I preffered the drinking and chatting, at least it wasnt the most dull music of all time dont get me wrong, it doesnt offend the ears like a celine dion but it just was very very boring, the only reason i didnt boo was because I was only a couple feet away from the band.

     

    But then... YETI. yes twas amazing played all the classics (if you can call them that) plus a selection of songs that I had never heard before. Hopefully they'll do an album in the not too distant future. The amazing deafening sound that was being produced was just too good. Wooo and I was so close to an ex-Libertine, its my dream although dumb arse me didnt get anything signed. But he did take one of Laura's fags, both of them dirty smokers.

     

    Then it was time to depart, back to Highgate tube station - although it did appear that we left at least 2 people behind who should have been coming with us, but I didnt know them so wasnt really my problem. Laura couldn't hide her love for me, making me give her hugs. so it was 3 lovely lasses, me and john on the train down, Laura off her head and making what were quite possibly very offensive messages behind a newspaper ;). Conversations followed about shoes and films and due to John boobs for a short while. The ladies all got off at Bank and me and john went on down towards the southern end of the northern line. Got to Colliers Wood, went home, watched a bit of telly, went to bed, the end.

     

    Again Lazy Wankers

     

    Just incase you think I am being mean to Laura, it was meeting her that was the highlight of the evening :)
