I Hate George Michael!/Isle Of Wight

I am utterly pissed at George Michael, the 43 year old's just announced that he'll be the first artist to play the brand new Wembley on June 7th - stealing the honour from Muse(bit of bias there I know), who booked the venue for 16th and 17th June back in December. As a consolation Muse will still technically be the first band to play the new Wembley but its just not the same I guess.

Even if it wasnt Muse robbed I'd still prefer a current, acclaimed band that keeps winning 'best live act' awards at every ceremony under the sun to open Wembley than a has-been thats only recently been on the th news for drug possession. Oh well.

While I'm on the subject it seems Klaxons(quality) will be supporting, and according to Dom in this weeks NME(28th Feb) Wolfmother and Bloc Party(!) might join in too!

Lastly on Muse, I got tickets for the Isle Of Wight Festival in you guessed it - the Isle Of Wight. The festivals going to be headlined by Snow Patrol, and rumour has it The Rolling Stones...but more importantly...Muse - On Matt Bellamy's Birthday!

Saturday the 30th December, I Hardly Knew Yee...

As a result of waking up at 9.05PM today I feel as though I've lost a day of my life. The reson being that I finished my last shift at Crisis Open Christmas 2006 this morning. The shift itself was great and as ever I met some interesting characters during the ten or so hour slug. Afterwards we decended upon a nearby pub sardined with crisis volunteers ordering pints at quarter to nine. Later on me, Aaky, Ras(h) and Hitz all got 12 inches from Subway on Liverpool Street...Finally I dipped in and out of sleep and drooled on the train home. Nice.

SALE! SALE! SALE!

I hit the traditional post Christmas Sales in central London earlier today, in order to beat the rush I left home at about 8.20am, London was quite eerily quiet in places such as Carnaby street and Regents Street.

I bought a new hoodie and a rather cool checkered shirt from H and M (Much much muchly needed) which wern't actually in the sales but were still great value for money, I did manage to score some nice Vans trainers in their 50% off sale which was sweet.

Finally I bought Snakes On A Plane on DVD which I'll probably watch later on tonight.

My uni work remains untouched! All in all however, it was a practical day.

Anant!
