yes so this week ive learned - Late nights and Early mornings... its possible as a cup of tea works wonders like it always does!
Also this weekend has consisted of spending a fair amount of time on trains which im not a fan of really esp when i have my big headphones on, which are pretty good at blocking out noise except for stupid gangsta wannabes in tracksuits with hip-hop blaring out of a phone speaker. Im not a fan of hip-hop at the best of times but dont ruin it even more my making it sound incredibly tinny and i can hear the shite over the top of whatever it was i was attempting to listen to.
Biggest news of the week goes to >insert imaginary drum roll here< Exam Results!
Im pretty happy with them, not extactic as could of done a fair bit better if i could concentrate for longer than 5 minutes, but i passed them all except for 1 (Phys Chem - stupid MCQs you cant do chemistry by multiple choice - its fecking trivia not knowledge) as you can tell im not too happy about that one nevertheless no resit needed and well i got a 1st in the one paper i thought i messed up big style (Group Theory) and a 2:1 in the other paper i ran out of time on (Organic)! How this happened i shall never know, well maybe after feedback week.
Second biggest news of the week goes to Purr! What a good lil selection of bands there, the colour of the night appears to be Red as KASMs front woman has a bright red top on & matching hair and also Fight Like Apes front woman also has a red top on (i realise this may not be very interesting i thought they both had red hair until i found some pictures). KASMs were like a female fronted Televised Crimewave (theyve covered each others songs and toured together) its the whole dark pop, grungey, post-punk thing which works ever so well. Turbowolf they were good to start with and then the rest? well it was all the same which just got turned into one big blur of im not too sure what as i switched off. Flight Like Apes well if you wanna like this band go see them. I listened to their album prior to this gig and thought not much of it, it was missing something a little bland at times and a bit of a mish mash of synths and guitars. How wrong was I? that missing ingredient was the energy they have on stage its not captured much on record. You wont see them banging beer crates together in the middle of the audience through your stereo. So yes.. go see them. i did, and well if you have to buy the record first the artwork is better.

Fight Like Apes are ace!
Haven't had a chance to see them live, but I thought the album was pretty good. I'm guessing it's better hearing it for real though??
yer definately a lot better hearing/seeing it for real!! to be honest i had only heard th album a few times before seeing them but wasnt too bothered about it but now tis great! they've either just finished touring or on tour atm definately worth popping along!
