Pigeons!! kicking against the pricks!


Kick a pigeon. Kick it hard really friggin hard.
Go on you know you want to, you'll feel much better I promise.
Next time you see one give it a swift quick up the plump backside, actually its your duty to do it and I shall tell you why.
Over a 100 years ago pigeons were afraid of man, terrified actually, so much so, that they could only live on their own street,(Pigeon Street I believe it was called).So afraid were they, that would not even walk around the pavement in front of a human.
Now they come up to you pecking at your feet while your eating your lunch,they bobble around on their popcorn foot while you wait for your bus, they steal a crumb from your croissant when you drop some on the ground.
In short they have evolved, they have evolved so much that are no longer afraid of humans. BASTARDS!!
Whats so bad about that I hear you whine? Well evolution does not stop it only gets better.
Monkeys grow opposable thumbs, chameleons learn how to change colour, cats become tame all in order to improve their own species chances of survival.
If pigeons continue to evolve at this rate soon they will be 20 foot tall living in your sitting room hogging the remote control chatting up your missus while you clean up their horrible yellowy green shit.
IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?? A HORRIBLE LAND OF THE PIGEONS WELL IS IT?
So keep those diseased winged rats in their proper place, on the receiving end of your well aimed size 11 boot.

new albums for 2010????????


Yeah I know its a cliche, (but cliche's are overused for a reason Mr. Smartypants), but good things always come in 2's or 3's. And music is no exception (nor Footy thanks Stevie G)

Take 2010 in music for example, after Christmas the music world, (by music world I mean media, blogs,mags, even that hyped up rag the NME), start to focus on the next big thangs for the year.
You have your usual mainstream acts like Radiohead (new album due in the Summer), your solid but not stellar acts (LCD Soundsystem due May) ,your "their first album was great but was it all the hype?" acts (Crystal Castles due early summer) and your " we never heard of you 6 weeks ago" acts (Drums due July).
January is the only time that all these acts are looked upon equally, with hope!. Each word is hung on by hopeful journos and fans alike, and when the artists say "this our best work yet" everyone really, really hope its true.
Then the cold harsh light of January pay day appears and all these musical hopes and dreams are smashed to the floor, 90% of the time. Hot Chips very average album a case in point.
But anyways this year is gonna be an amazing year for music (he says hopefully).
Albums are in the pipeline from all over the musical genres, (I'll get to that later). But as always there is always something to annoy a Crank like me,(after all I am annoyed easily). And that is the fact that 2 of my favourite bands are releasing albums on the same day.
For most people this would be a great day, but for me it means hours of uneasy listening wondering if the other album is as good as i had hoped. Hours of flicking through with my sweaty paws songs getting to their good bits and back and forth and back and forth and so on,,,,,,,,

Its typical that both B.R.M.C. & The Gorillaz are releasing "Beat the devils tattoo" and "Plastic Beach" on the same day. Oh how i wasted minutes in 2009 wishing that they both had a new album (or even a new song) out and now the feckers do it on THE SAME DAY , Cheeky Bastards!!!!
And now I've had a taste of both, I want more more MORE !!
So hurry up Friday March 5Th, so I can work my old cracked Ipod like an old workhorse with a gammy leg.

More albums out in 2010 that will probably come out all in the same week thus making my life that lil bit more complicated include.

The Strokes due Sept bought time.
Mgmt due June/July gonna be shit
Crystal Castes May/Junes gonna be noisy.
Beastie Boys sometime soon when MCA feels better ( he has cancer)
M.I.A. due April/May gonna be bangin bangin.
Foals due Summer gonna be funky and dark.
We Are Scientists due Spring gonna be cheeky
Empire of the Sun gonna be missing a member.
Battles gonna be LOUD!
Metronomy its gonna be sexy.
Amy Winebox gonna be a mess of bad boobs jobs and junk.
All dates are guestimated.

weak days & replays


Well its begun I started a blog, mainly cause I am totally self invloved and think the world needs to hear my opinions, and partly cause I'm sarcastic and grumpy.(well it works for Charlie Brooker).
This evening I got to do one my favourite things in the world and watch football while Zacky made dinnner right after I finish work.
My most favourite thing to do is to Dj , drink afterwards untill about 7am sleep till 3pm get up and watch Liverpool, I know this is about 3 things but hey I dont get to do it that often.

Anyways, so instead of watching my team I got to watch my second team (Barca) play badly for at least 45 minutes and then play average for the other 45 mins.I've had a soft spot for Barca since a few years ago when I was single and got Sky Sports (cue hours of uniteruppted football).
Based on this display Barca dont look like proper contenders and both Man U and Chavski could easily shackle that moody plank Zlatan and cut off the distribution of Xavi & Iniesta.
Incidently the highlight of the match was me explaining the offside rule to Zacky who now is better at it then Graham Poll ever was.
Having watched that match made me realise how little I'm looking forward to Liverpools Europa league match on Thursday, last weeks match was like being stuck in the doctors office waiting for a diagnosis of (possibly) bad news.
So if We do scrape by (yeah I said we, lol) we are assured of some more hard to watch European nights but with no more football on Saturdays for the rest of season, which is unfair for most Pool fans, but for me its great cause I work every Saturday with about 2 hours sleep.And trying to skive of work to watch football requires at least 4 hours sleep, trust me I have done extensive research on this.
So there you go, next time I will be ranting about how 2 of my most antcipated albums of 2010 are coming out on the same day, BLOODY TYPICAL, want to know what they are???
Tough you ll have to guess,or wait and see.

Todays playlist while typing this was Jackbeats essential mix (very wobbly bass all over ma face). "I think I think Ithink I think i like it". It gave me some intresting ideas for this Fridays NoDisKo @ Trainwreck/Crawdaddy when I once again take to the decks with Sometimes Babs, thus explaining the 2 hour sleeps, (see continuity I does it).
excuse my french and my spelling but not my french spelling
