I've had no sleep last night. Up at 5am with stress dreams and even hot milk couldn't get me back to sleep. I'm exhausted from lugging heavy bags of equipment across London at inappropriate hours, fighting commuter traffic.

I'd been hoping to visit York on Monday night anyway, so after we'd done the bedroom-clearing I went off there, and ended up spending a couple of nights in York too. Eventually, I got home, having had a great weekend, and still with a grin on my face. Hopefully going back to York again tomorrow though, to help A Certain Someone with moving house.

I should buy a stereo, though. This is absurd that I'm still listening to CDs on my 'puter and studio monitors.

A lot of people seem to have a metal period in their earlier teens, I on the other hand seem to have started to like it more again as I got older (apart from a few years when I 1st got into music at 18/19)So what did you all listen to in your teenage years? Did you have a metal period?

When i was 15 or 16 I got a cd player (I had a few lps but wasnt really INTO music, just listened to charts radio like most people but preferred the rock or synthpop end i suppose) So I got into U2 and then after a few years I got into Rolling Stones, Beatles, Who, Sex Pistols and then Nirvana came along. Talk about perfect timing. When I got into Nirvana my new mates(i only moved to hamilton about 6 months before Nevermind came out) were in two camps. Ones i knew from Accies games and they tended to like indie like Stone Roses, Primal Scream,The Smiths, Pixies etc and the non footy ones liked Metallica, Guns n roses etc. I never liked glam metal at all(had a mate at school who did) so Grunge was a great way to bridge the gap between the two. Was great finding out there was good bands existed but weren't in the charts. Nirvana really was life changing for me since I didn't have any older brothers or sisters to get me into music like so many do. So I had to find it all by myself(with help from Nirvana of course). melody maker, Raw, Kerrang and even NME were good back then helping me discover stuff.And of course Napster and co helped me find new bands when I just wasn't liking what the magazines were covering 5-6 years ago, as I was buying mainly old music like Krautrock,funk, jazz and erm the classics obviously. The internet helped my tastes get even broader.
I do wonder what age I will be when I finally give up on new bands, or even music.
x-posts as I took so long typing that out.
Hanoi Rocks are a great band! One of the classic bands i got into in the late 90s. My mate saw them with Johnny Thunders opening for them in 1985 I think it was. Since he's 40 he's seen loads of great bands. His elder brother saw Sabbath with ozzy. My mate saw them with Dio. Those 2 and their friends have seen some amazing gigs.

I am feeling rub because of nerves mainly, for tonight. Which I guess is a good thing, as I haven't had nerves about a gig in... well, about as long as I haven't been enjoying them. So maybe nerves are an integral part of the process.
Oh, and other crap, but I'm not going to get into that here.

Slaves to authenticity: Someone noted to the guideperson that the ticket inspector on the GWR train coudn't be from the 1940's as they always had a buttonhole (flower). So they dug up the regulations, and apparently all customer-facing staff had to provide of themselves a buttonhole flower. So they shut it down overnight, opened the top of the train, and put a little white dot on the lapel.

Never did. Only in passing, i.e. bought the first Nirvana album.

Hey, for all you know, they might *not* have been pervs!
Ok, they were.
There wasn't anything interesting and salvagable in the crap they were throwing out and/or sending to charity, though - they offered me a pair of cheap wrist cuffs whose D-rings had snapped off, but I've given up on rescuing other people's broken crap for the moment. I always take things in thinking "ooh, I can do something with that", and it just sits around gathering dust. I did rescue a length of lightweight chain they didn't want - it's not great, because its links are a bit weird in style, but I need more. In fact, I really should go out some time, talk to a locksmith, and get a set of maybe 10 small same-keyed padlocks. I can't imagine ever needing to use that many at once, but the largest same-keyed sets I've seen in DIY stores have 3 in, which isn't enough for non-immobilising positions.
