Eugh I'm back...had a great time at the weekend, but the downside was in return for a long weekend I've had to work loads of 8 till 8 shifts.  I'm shattered!! But am now off until tuesday, yay!

So I won't bore you too much about Glasto, I'm sure people have already talked about it and provided pics and vids, sadly I have none...but it was great, saw loads of bands, met very weird people and finally saw a burlesque show!! Here are my highlights and lowlights.

Highlights

Kings of Leon - They were amazing, bloody brilliant, have seen them before but that night was so special.  I had tears in my eyes during Arizona!

Mystery Jets - I liked them alot, had never heard anything by them before but was really blown away.

White Denim - Were great, have finally got the album now!

MGMT - Loved and they seemed really chuffed when people sang back, was sweet.

And the very very lovely burlesque act on Friday night.

Lowlights

Missed Pete

Missed Carl

Missed Helsinki!!! (I kept forgetting who was on and what I wanted to see and getting distracted)

Amy Winehouse - Now I had never seen her live before, but obviously knew what to expect, but it was awful.  I read somewhere that Michael Eavis said she was great or something, but I missed that clearly.  She didnt seem to try or thinks she can get away with singing badly, I don't know.

Sharing a tent with my brother - Wasn't alot of fun, got to be honest!  Worst part, on Sunday some people in a tent near us had thought we were girlfriend and boyfriend...but other than that twas fine!

Had a great weekend, driving is getting better, I don't panic as much, which was a relief seeing as it was a longer drive.  

Now looking forward to Dr Who tonight and a lazy weeked.

Hmm, my sister has changed my layout again, once I can figure out how to change it, tis gone ads make it look horrible!

Anyways ...Au revoir and god bless!

Was sitting here bored, waiting for tomorrow (was packed at the wkend!) when I found this...

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Back-Passage-James-Lear/dp/1573442437/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1214505290&sr=8-1

The title alone is genius, but then read the summary!  So I bought that slash book and this one...

I'm making a mix cd for someone and am looking for Kings of Leon - My Party Remix.  Tried on all the communties and such and still can't find it.  Can't have Limewire on my comp or I'd have a look on that.  Does anyone have it and can upload it?  In return please help yourself to anything from my sendspace folder:

If anyone knows where I can find this I'd be hugely hugely grateful!

Just wanted to let people know again that my swapbot swap closes on July 1st.  If you don't know about Swapbot it's a website where you exchange gifts, letters, cds and crafts etc with people from all around the world.  It's alot of fun and makes a change from just getting bills through the post!

The swap that I have set up is here  http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/16870 it's a indie mix cd swap.  You have until July 1st to sign up, then until July 15th to make and send it.  Doesn't matter if your a newbie to swapbot, just have a fully filled out profile and that's fine.  If for some reason you get flaked on (it does sometime happen) I will angel the swap and make sure you receive something.

Go and have a looksee!

I was looking for songs over 10 minutes for a mix cd I was making and found Diamond Sea by Sonic Youth.  It's 19:35!  Everything else over ten minutes seemed to be prog rock but this song is so lovely!  Nearly 20 minutes long!!  Here's a rip of it if you've never heard it before, full version, reject the 5 minute one ;)

Also very pleased today as I got my DPT bundle and Yeti album!  I am now the proud owner of 4 records! Yep I know, don't get too jealous though, one is Spandau Ballet! 

 Do you know I've had animal crossing for the ds for years, and i stopped playing it because it was getting quite dull.  But yesterday I finally got access to Wifi, so much fun! I had a lenghy conversation about flowers and enjoyed it!

Also if you haven't got The Libertines - Rough enough stuff, you can download it from here.

I didn't have it, so quite pleased now!

Current Mood: happy

 Come and join my swap that I have set up here  http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/16870  It's an indie mix cd swap, and international, details are all there.

It doesn't matter if your new to swapbot you can still join my swap, just make sure you have a fully filled out profile to show that you are serious.

I know that people don't really need cds much anymore, but I still think it's really nice to make them up and get them in the post, makes a change from bills anyway!

Sometimes you can get really fed up with people who don't follow through with what they promise.  At work, travelling to work even or family, and you start to wonder why you bother.  And then sometimes people go above and beyond to help you or do something so nice, when they really didn't have to, there was nothing in it for them.

I'm involved with www.swap-bot.com, it can be really good when you actually get what you signed up for.  I've had a couple of no-sends, but overall it's ok I think.  But what I got today made it all worthwhile!  I was involved in a swap where you had to make a journal describing your hometown, and today I received mine from my swap partner who lives in California.  She made me the most beautiful journal(really puts mine to shame!) but aswell as that she looked through my profile and bought me loads of arty bits to go with it.  The best bit though is that she also sent me the biggest box of Lucky Charm cereal!  I love them and can never get them in the UK, and now I can have 3 bowls a day!!!

I have made a new muxtape playlist for anybody who is interested.  After making a mixed cd for a friend  I realised that so many songs seemed to be drug related,  so I added them to my muxtape for a sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll theme listening.

So I've just heard that Pete is going to be on the cover of NME this week, so I shall end my boycott for this week only.  And I'm guessing thats why Babybear took all the photos off Flikr, bloody NME, ah well seen them anyways but I shall still buy it like the well trained fan I am.  Never buy mags now, is it something that just happens as you get older?  When I was about 12-13 I was mad for Sugar, Mizz, J17 and More, there isn't much out there for me now I dont think.  I am only 22 btw even though I'm remincing like a 52 year old.  I don't get Cosmo but I have found this v.v gay sexy pic of Maxie from Skins.  You have to admire it don't you?
