Skint Eastwood

Hello again anyone who still reads this blog, I dont know if anyone reads it anymore so I might be back to square one. Oh well.

As you may/may not know I went and saw Gorillaz live in Portsmouth on Sunday, and it was brilliant! Seeing one of my favorite bands for the first time (in such a small intimate venue) was something I had waited for lets say... 5 years? Not only was it Damon Albarn who showed up, but also half of The Clash were there... and I must say they are fantastic musicians. Expecially Paul Simonon (bass) who played just a metre away from me, what an awesome gent he is. To be fair, Gorillaz played a very long set and included all the hits (Feel Good Inc, Clint Eastwood, Stylo, Dirty Harry) so can't complain. It is a shame though that they did not have any additional artists with them like Bobby Womack or Mos Def, but I guess playing such a small venue people arn't going to go there to play one song? Nonetheless it was an ace gig and since then they have announced more tour dates, with a full UK tour in September, so hopefully I will get to catch them again.

Onto politics, as usual, there was just one piece of sloppy journalism I thought I would point out for you to go and read.

Theres one thing in insulting a political party, but to insult the people who vote for them is just petty. As you will read there is not argument here, and it is just personal attacks on members within the party. Why would you even feel the need to write this?
