Tie-Dye Today.

So this week I've been digging a lot of old clothes out a drawer. Today I wore this tie-dye that I got in Fort William. I think it's the most METAL tie-dye ever.

R.I.P. Backrooms

Had our last ever practise at the Backrooms as it's closing down at the end of the month. Practised our current set and worked on a few new covers.

The Liberty Bells

Went through to The Hive in Edinburgh to watch Jay's band play. They were really good! Got nicely drunk afterwards and discovered that Stu can tell by smelling people if they have syphilis so he is now the sniffilis and if you have syphilis you're going on his syphilist.

"a big ol' 11 on the sphincter-pucker meter!"

I found my PS1 emulator and copy of Alundra on my laptop so I started playing it. Just heard an amazing quote from it too! Pity I didn't screen dump THAT. Oh well.

Also watched Tropic Thunder and The Omen II: Damien. Tropic Thunder was pretty good, The Omen II was The Omen with Damien a little older and people dying in weirder ways. A pretty dated movie to be honest.

Fire!

Was at the labs at Napier University getting experimented on. The experiment was a psychology test where they showed you pictures of people's faces and you had to rate them 1-7 on how good a leader you'd think they'd be. Then you were given questions about yourself, then you had to go back and see if you remembered which faces were shown earlier and which weren't. The experiment was for Debbie's uni work.

Oh yeah and there was a fire drill.

And we wen't to Burger King for lunch and I got a "Spicy" peri peri chicken roll which wasn't very spicy and although it was tiny it filled a hole.

And on the way there we saw a woman drive the wrong way around Netherton roundabout!

Open (but only to those who can play) Mic Night

Was another Open Mic Night spammed by chavvy Oasis/Beatles wannabes. Thankfully we managed to get them off and get Melv and Danny on jamming guitar and flute over beats on a Nintendo DSI! One of the most interetesting acts I've seen at open mic night.

Another song about alcohol...

Went to PJ's to see The Alchonauts and Hipflask who were both awesome! Didn't realise Hipflask were the band who supported Shackled at the Legion place in Crossgates. They've actually come a LONG way! Sounding awesome! The Alchonauts were a pleasure to listen to as usual, I think they were drunker than normal too which made it more fun.....or maybe I was more drunker? There were also lots of sexy people there, especially mah Sarah :)

Smile! It could be you!

So my mum sent me to the shop to get a lottery ticket so I tried to draw a smily face! It didn't work so well, and the numbers all lost so double fail!

Obviously didn't have spell checkers in those days....

Was up the glen today for a BBQ before heading to open mic night. On the way I noticed this sign near malcoms tower with Dunfermline clearly spelt wrong!
