"I just think it's interesting to see how people act on their beliefs. Your beliefs - they're just that - they're nothing, they're just how you were taught and raised - that doesn't make 'em real....everything you learned is in fact just learned and not necessarily true."

- Bill Hicks.

I know quoting Bill is pretty tramline but this one really affirms my way of thinking every time I hear it. Read it again. He was never more right.

Incantation or nothing for me now.

Anyone who knows me will know I'm no fan of Punk exactly - I have some Dead Kennedys and Minor Threat LPs from when I was a teenager as it seemed you weren't allowed to be skateboarder without them in those days - but for the genre as a whole I remain unimpressed.

I watched this video below a while back and thought I'd share the wealth on here. We used a GG Allin song on a Heroin video once but I never knew much about him. Then I saw a bunch of youtube clips and this one, well... astounded/appalled me! Am I too grown up now? Am I a total pussy?

I'm sure we've all had some pretty wacky crowd experiences at gigs before but personally I've not had the singer shit on the floor, rub it all over himself naked and cause almost the ENTIRE audience to leave! I don't know whether this is awesome or awful. Should I think the guy is some kind of punk-rock ruler or should I be worried about him and alerting his parents? Fuck knows... Have a watch and let me know how to think. I'm obviously not punk enough to get it.

Paedogeddon.



So, click the pic and read the article about the above...

If I was caught on a ski lift with a child and my trousers down I would have tried to bail too!

"Honestly officer, my trousers came down DURING the fall!"
"A likely story Sir - you're nicked!"

At about 2am we made it over to The Attic to see Guy's band Dub From Atlantis. After that it's all a bit blurry for me.

New year's day we continued into the party zone. This bin inspired me to keep going.

Des - King hat, balloon tits, 20 Marlboros. Time for bed!

No we didn't stick around for him to wake up.

Then back to Bang and Gav's for Shooting Stars on the projector.

Absolutely wet myself - so good to see this shit again. Arise Sir Vic!
