Hey punks! It's me! i don't type much on here anymore which is nice for you all, what with my awful spelling and grammar (that you love to point out to me). I won't be writing anymore today either because im in a TIS! I have soo many things to do and i'm wasting time telling you!? I'm leaving Bristol for the weekend and probably won't be posting much on here over the next few days. Just so you know, not that you care, it's more a note for me..to let myself know it's gonna be all right..everything's gonna be alllll right. I'll be uploading loads of photos from the past few weeks, drawings, lists, my life story..and STUFF when i return. Byee!
MUST DASH!

GREEN MAN (The Report)
Probably the nicest, friendliest, and wettest festival i've ever been too..definitey not the muddiest though (Glastonbury last year served up masses of Sarah Lee Gateau). As they usually do..lot's of wierd, stupid and embarrasing things happened to me that i won't go into here because i have recently become more worried about posting pictures of poo and whatnot seeing as i have a new job starting soon. I'm still a bit worse for wear now so you can imagine how fast i was driving. We bumped into alot of nice people including our friends at Fence which is always a joy! We got there Saturday so missed alot of good stuff including James Yorkston, King Creosote, Spiritualized, F*** Buttons, & Cave Singers which was dissapointing. We also somehow (well i have a good idea why) missed a load of stuff i REALLY wanted to see like.. Junior Boys, School Of Language, Archie Bronson Outfit, Little Wings & David Holmes (although i might have seen him?).
But what did we see!?? Musical highlights over the rest of the weekend included (in order of how much i enjoyed them)..
Wild Beasts (wooooo!! got told off during them for singing and dancing too loud),
Super Furry Animals (got told off during them for bouncing to loud),
The Three Craws..which for those who don't know are King Creosote, James Yorkston, & Pictish Trail..with help from Pip Dylan on Box (that i wanna get to play live with, i asked him about buying one as he makes them..£100 though),
Caribou, The National, Laura Marling, Radio Luxembourg, The Accidental, Babel, Iron & Wine, The Peth.
There are't that many photos as my friend's camera gave up after day 1.

Wild Beasts..
Thanks to G.Jones who took all the photos.
Here's a nice little video made by Love.Stop.Repeat that pretty much sums up how great Green Man is (look out for the mud surfing)..
Below are a few videos filmed by other people at the festival..
* Wild Beasts..
* King Creosote (stealing my bowl-haircut-wig idea that i wasn't brave enough to pull off)..

NO TV TODAY (Malcolm McLaren's 'Duck Rock')
I'd been intrugued by the idea of this album for a while now and a few weeks ago finally got around to buying it. It's unbelievable! Don't think i've ever heard anything like it before. It's all over the place, which my favourite albums usually tend to be. I seem to be drawn to oddball outsiders at the moment.
'Double Dutch' (the song below) was the first thing i'd heard from him quite some time ago, i think it was probably while at my Uncle's, searching through his records..hmm..or maybe on an old mixtape someone had gave me..hmm..or maybe i dreamt it? Anyway from hearing this i knew i had to get it..only took me about 10 years!! Below are also other videos from the 'Duck Rock' album apart from 'Madame Butterfly' which i had to include is its one of my all time favourite songs (and one of the strangest).
* Double Dutch..
* 'Buffalo Girls'..
* 'Duck For The Oyster'..
* 'Soweto'..
* 'Madame Butterfly'..

GREEN MAN
I got a last minute cut price ticket for The Green Man Festival yesterday. It's my last chance of some fun this summer (there's not been much so far). The downside of arriving late today is that we'll miss the Fence bunch. I'm very very excited about seeing Wild Beasts for the first time, also looking forward to seeing..Super Furry Animals (i think it'll be for the 10th time), Junior Boys, School Of Language, Archie Bronson Outfit, The National, Caribou, and David Holmes. I'm off in a bit, see you next week (with the beansnaps)...as WB would sing..Cheerio Chaps Cheerio Goodbye!
