I have been a useless Blogger I must be honest. Lets see what has happened in the last 2 months. Well we went away to Bahamas and the States. Great holiday, went to 6 Hard Rock Cafes, 3 Hard Rock Hotels, 2 Hard Rock Casinos and 2 Hard Rock Live's. I seem to like the drinks, so I keep going back and back and back....

We went to New York, WOW, awesome city, BIG, very big. We only had 2 days, so we didn't rush to see everything. We went on a ferry around the Statue of Liberty, up the Rockerfeller and Empire State Building. Were given tickets to The Conan O'Brien Show. Antonia Banderas and the chick from Scrubs were guests. Didn't go, it had been a long day already. We also did 2 buss tours, 1 uptown and 1 downtown. Then of course we went to Times Square, Hard Rock, Hershey Shop, M&Ms Shop, Virgin (Huge), Swatch, Planet Hollywood and Billabong (Alot of shopping shopping shopping)

Delayed coming back, but a great holiday

Next stop: West Coast

Been to a few concerts, saw Travis Tritt and Heart in the States. Last week we went to OMD. No more conerts for a month. Next one: Aerosmith, 14 June, in Munich.

We are also moving from Chateau Luralda, not quite sure where just yet, will keep you informed...maybe.

My Chemical Romance - Koko, Camden - 2/4/07

Hello again. Well I went to My Chemical Romance (MCR) with Luke on Monday night. Oh my greatness. What a performance. Not as good as Friday night as it was a smaller venue. They are superb. They are definitely my best current band at the moment. Here is the link to the BBC page,

You may need to install Real Player. There are videos of some of the songs, a broadcast of their whole set, a documentary and photos.

Have a great Easter weekend, back to work on Tuesday. Happy days....

My Chemical Romance - Wembley Arena - 30/3/2007

Oh my greatness, what a concert. They were absolutely unbelievable. They played all the songs from their latest album in order. If they stopped there, it would have been the best concert I would have ever been to. But because they carried on playing their older stuff, they unfortunately didn't take over Guns n Roses. But they did overtake Robbie Williams, Travis and The Killers.

Every single song on their new album 'The Black Parade' is great. There are some songs that should make your top 20. Namely 'Welcome to the Black Parade', 'Disenchanted', 'I don't love you' and 'Famous last words'.

A definite 10/10. I was also lucky enough to win tickets to the small intimate gig in Camden tonight. The venue can only hold 1500 and its for BBC 1. Going to be broadcast on the net, radio and tv. So I will publish the link.

Anyway, otherwise all is well. Arsenal are crap.

Take care

This is the latest

Arsenal are useless. Lost the first leg of the Champions league last 16 to PSV. Lost to Chelsea in the final of the League Cup. Lost to Blackburn in the FA Cup 5th Round. If they lose to Reading on Saturday, they will become the first English side to lose 4 games in a row in 4 different competitions. That has to suck!!

If things don't start getting better, I am going to start watching either, its a toss up, any other ideas are welcome, table tennis, darts, chess, tic-tac-toe or windsurfing.

We got tickets to Aerosmith in Hyde Park. Funny enough, its a Hard Rock event. We decided to go the whole nine yards, so we got VIP tickets. You just have to, at least once in your life.

Well thats the news, just wanted to rant and rave about Arsenal and how crap they are.

Time catches up on you, you seem to think you have enough time to go to work, eat dinner, sleep, play games, go to concerts, go to football games. Well you don't, hence the reason I have not updated this blog. Well, I am here now. Heres the update.

I have been to 3 Arsenal games since my last entry:
Saw Arsenal hammer Man Utd 2-1
Saw Arsenal hammer Spurs 3-1 in the league cup.
Saw Arsenal hammer Wigan 2-1

So far this season, I have been to 8 games. As yet I have never seen them lose live. Lets hope that luck continues. The next game is against Reading.

Also went to see Fall Out Boy with Luke at Hammersmith Palais. Awesome venue, very similar to a nightclub. They were good, listen to 'Sugar, we're going down'

Concerts coming up:

Killers at Wembley Arena
Muse at the new Wembley (First band to play at the new stadium)
Aerosmith in Germany (This is the big one for me)

We are also going on our big holiday this year. We fly to Miami and then straight on to Bahamas. Back to Miami and drive to Key West, back to Miami. On to Orlando and Tampa Bay and then fly to New York. We are looking to go to 5 Hard Rock cafes:

New York
Nassau
Miami
Key West
Orlando

We are also planning on staying in 3 Hard Rock Hotels:

Hollywood, fl
Orlando
Tampa Bay

That is my little fetish that I have, I have to go to all the Hard Rocks, there are 140 or so of them. The brightside is Faye will see the world because of this fetish.

The Hard Rocks I have been to so far:

Cape Town
Orlando
Dubai
Amsterdam
Paris
Edinburgh
London

We will do Munich in June when we go see Aersomith and might do Leeds this weekend when we go visit Grandma.

We missed out on Grand Canaria twice when we went to Tenerife, so that will have be some other time.

Anyway

I'm tired of typing
