This week everyone has been bitching at me to get the blog done. I was actually stopped from writing this 2 times to be asked "Is it done yet matt?" "Done it yet?" "Updated the blog yet?" "wen u doin a new blog" Bastards the lot of you! Anyways personally its been a hektic week for me, trying to get coursework in on time and was really looking forward to going out on the weekend. So Friday comes and I get sprung on me Ive got to baby sit then as well as the Saturday (yet a-fscking -gain ), so we all re-arrange to go out on the Sunday after practise.

    Saturday flies by and we are back to Sunday and practise again. Pablo cant make it this week due to working, but Macca makes it for the first time! *cheer*. So it was just Me, Paul, Luke, Pete, Macca and Rachel (Macca's bit on the side after Lukes mum. Yes its another dig at you Luke, for whining when I had a go at you before... Bitch.) Anyway There was the small problem that the church had a bbq on for the community. So before we set up, we helped moved a few chairs around and tidy up abit. Once set up we went over stuff from the other week, Macca picked up the stuff as we went along and was all working out quite nicley. Pete forgot to bring his video camera so we didnt get any footage this week, and my Camera wasnt charged properly so we didnt get much to show off today. We worked on a few covers which sounded alright, so overall everything went smoothly. Until we ask yet again "how are we getting home?"...

    We were stuck around yet again in the middle of bolton with lots of equipment and no way of getting back, I swear next time im not leaving my house without knowing how im getting back :@! Anyway Kennedy calls a relative (Shout out to Pauls Uncle) and we sort out a lift, even though he had no idea how to get in to Bolton, My superior navigating skills helped there. We got dropped off at Lukes house and Me and Kennedy got a taxi back home so we could get ready for going out in the evening.

    After we all get ready, we booked the taxi for 8, and as usual in Manchester it turns up at 8:45. Me, Paul, Pete and Luke meet up at the Garrat and have a few pints, Macca didnt go because hes a whining pussy bum with no money. So we were sat around in there and this random girl comes up to me (as they always do, no suprise there) and was saying shes seen me around, thinks im a total sex god and that she thinks she saw me from college. Anyways she wandered off now with her life complete having talked to me and we drank up and headed out to Jillies (aka Rockworld).

    Which turned out to be pretty shite, when we got there, you didnt need to pay and just walked in. But you can see why you didnt need to pay, the place was empty, and they had some crap live band on, so we pretty much walked in and strait out again. We tried 42s which was closed, there was a queue going round the block for 5th Ave, wouldnt be suprised if they are still there now. We tried Brannigans, but me and Paul had no ID with us and got turned away. Then we finally tried Teasers. We were abit worried about Pete and his trainers, but Pete was more worried about and I quote "I wanna get a fat minge in my face!"...

    Now just imagine the biggest possible lard arse dancing on a table with skimpy clothing with pete sat infront, and all of a sudden she winks and jumps in his direction, feet forward, the chair falls back, all you hear is *splooge*, and hes on the floor with her on his face. And even then you dont come anywhere near to how funny that moment was, you had to be there

    As it happened we got in to Teasers with no problem. Me and Paul are like managers of a band, and because im a god among men, they let us in without ID. And they figured because pete has an eye pircing he must be gay so just leave him alone. You go in and it seems a normal enough bar, we sit down and after abit and a few drinks a few girls get up dancing, which was great to say the least. Anyways the bouncer comes along and tells them to get down and for us to move our drinks, were getting abit pissed off as we were enjoying our selves, then we realise why. The next minute this beautiful Teasers girl gets up and does a full on dance. The faces around the place were pretty much like this: <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/j /jawdrop.gif"> She was talented lets put it that way. We all had alot of fun there that night.

    Teasers started to close, but we were all (apart from Lightweight-Pete) wanting to go somewhere else. So anyway we wandered round for about 40 mins going from place to place to see wheres open and where to get something to eat. We headed towards canal street and ended up in baa bar (but kept off the shots this time!) we saw Nichola Stead, and had a little chat and then Paul and Luke got a kebab and we then went off in the taxi. A great night all round really

    The photos from the afternoon have been uploaded here So Enjoy !

Another week and another practise session and time for the (now weekly!) blog update. The week has generally been boring, not being able to get out of the house due to any number of reasons has been a bore but luckly thanks to Kellie its been a little less boring (sorry she forced me to say it... Honest!). Basically the highlight of the week was the weekend. I had hoped to go out either on the Friday or Saturday but people couldnt make it on the Friday, and I was babysitting on the Saturday so that left the Sunday and Band Practise.

Well sunday morning I make my way round to Lukes and meet up with Luke and Kennedy before the practise. This week we got a lift off Lukes mum (Hi Mrs Roebuck ) Which meant we got a ride in the Jag, A big step up from the big van that we were crammed in to I can tell you! We met up with Pablo at the Adelphi Campus near town and headded off to meet up with Pete and then up to the Church Hall. Once there we were set up quite quickly and managed to get straight in to the music.

We started off with the song we started last week, and I cant remember the name, Im sure Luke will remind me when he reads this. Anyway we started off with 'that song' and tried to re-work the drums to it. It wasnt happening though, even with all 5 of us trying to put stuff together it wasnt working out. We tried taping it playing it back and trying to show what we could do instead (shout out to Pete's Dad for lending us the Video Camera) But it just seems that no matter what we tried it didnt sound right. After a near solid 2 hours of doing this song everyone was aggrivated (yes you Luke you little psycho!). So we all decided to chill out for abit people swapped instruments around and just had abit of fun, which we were all glad for after being abit wound up.

We had some fun and then we tried doing a few covers. Pete and Luke did a pretty good version of (again ive forgot the song ! Memory like a seive I tell you!) and Luke even did the vocals! Something that we all regret! (nah that was harsh he did alot better than I could of and atleast he tried better than anyone else did). What happened next was quite astounding as far as I was concerned. Luke just started playing something and Pete joined in and everyone agreed that it sounded amazing. Confused I thought they were playing a cover, but this was their own material, and it was incredible. So straight away everyone was back in the mood and really motivated. Pablo put together a bassline which fitted perfectly with the whole song and it all was just right. Really was a moment you had to be there for...

So time got on and it hit 5:10 which was about time to pack up and get going. Pablo and Pete packed up and got off. So I look at Paul and ask how we getting home, Paul looks at Luke and asks how we are getting home, and Luke like the retard he is says 'erm I dont know? You were sorting it out!'. So there we are stranded in a church in the middle of Bolton with what must be over 500 pound in sound and photography equipment, All because some tard said 'Oh I know lets sort it out when we get there!'. Anyway thanks to Me (because everyone knows that Im god) and my great contacts I managed for someone to pick us up and drop us off. Dont say I never do anything for you! So to pass the time while we wait for a lift we throw a rugby ball around abit. Now what I didnt realise how fscking lethal a rugby ball to the face is...

I swear I lost conciousness for about 15 seconds and found myself sitting on the side laughing, while luke was on the floor in fits, looking like he was doing more damage to himself by laughing than I did with the ball and Kennedy sat on the side gasping for breath from laughing. A good end to a good day overall !

The photos from the day have been uploaded here So Enjoy !

Time for another blog entry cos Luke is a moaning pussy and forced me to write another one. Anyway this week ive been pretty busy getting college work done, but more inportantly ive been getting things like the band website, logo, and getting the KL management business cards done. So pretty boring week really, Ive been skint so couldnt go out on Saturday night, so ive been stook in the house.

On the other hand I have a good time on Sunday. Me, Peter Watts, Luke Roebuck, Paul Kennedy, Pablo di Bassio (aka Paul Bolton) and some random guy called Dan (who by the way is a good drummer if we ever need a standin!) Got together for some band practise. Luke on lead guitar and vocals (even though we didnt have a mic and he didnt do any singing), Pete on Drums, Pablo on Bass Guitar, and the rest of us being giving constructive critasism (thats the posh term for telling someone they are crap). The day went pretty well overall, Started off by me n pete getting up to lukes house. From there we waited around for 30 mins for Pablo and Dan to turn up, who didnt. So we ended up having to go and fetch them before we got to the church. The problem there is we had to fit 5 people in a van with seats for 3, so me and Pete sat in the back and got thrown, banged and tossed about (no ideas lads). Anyway we made it in once piece and got to the venue.

The place was suprisingly big! Just a nice ajoining church hall (Another big thanks to the Priest there, sorry I forgot his name ). So we cleared the place so we had somewhere to set up, we did find a mic and a stand, but we had no way of actually using it. We need to work on that for next time. Once set up the band got in to it and started working together, everyone seemed to be helping each other and it really did work well. We got the riffs down and got a bass line to them and some drum beats too. By the end we had something we could play and sound really good. We are still from perfect we need the vocals to be done yet and everyone needs more refining, but thats what the practise sessions are about.

Time passed by much quicker than we had expected and it was 5:30 before we knew it, and time we had to clear out of the hall. So we packed up and Pablo and Dan got off (in their car, dirty bastards) and petes dad turned up closley after with the van. So loaded the van locked up and got off, again me and pete in the back. As we are leaving bolton kennedy gets a phone call. The odd thing about this was, it was off me, or rather my arse... My arse ive recently found out has its own social life, and regularly calls people on my mobile! Which explains the loud partys and raves that seem to constantly happen in my arse...
