Had a pretty dull week this week (apart from the Audioslave gig) primarily due to my not having any cash until pay day.

I'm literally doing fuck all this weekend.

Maybe going to the gym will make me feel better.

So Hamburg was a laugh.
Good place to go for a stag weekend.
Cheap beer and lots of filth. Stayed clear of the hookers though.

Went to Audioslave tonight - fuck me - fucking brilliant.
I love it when bands sound as great (if not better) live than they do recorded.
Best gig I've been to in a long time. Lets hope the others this...

Going to Hamburg tomorrow for a stag weekend.
Should be a laugh - heard it makes Amsterdam seem like a family trip to the park.

Unfortunately I'm skint though - spent far too much money last weekend - had to see my friend's band, went out with my uncle and cousin and then had an evening wedding reception to go to. Must have spent over...

So I've now saw Star Wars twice now and I'm still liking it.
It's so much better than the previous two new efforts and I'd say it's coming close to RoTJ.

There are three things about it that really bug me though...

1) Some of the CGI is still a bit ropey
2) The seduction to dark happens way to fast for my liking
3)...

The final film in the Star Wars series is released today.
I so want this movie to be good.
Please George, don't have fucked it up like you did on the last two movies.

I remember when the prequels were first announced. I never imagined that they would end up being the poor efforts that we've been given so far. All special effects and no...

It's been a fair time since my last entry.
Not a huge amount has happened. It's amazing how quickly you can fall back into old routines.

I've got yet another gig to look forward to. Pixies in August. A whopping 30+booking though.

The new NIN album is starting to grow on me now - as is the Garbage album. I purchased the SOAD album today....

Haven't been online for a while.

Starting to get used to being back.
Got back into Tuesday night poker. It was just like old times with me winning the first two games.
Got a bigger game on Friday night but I don't have high hopes for that one.

Work can still be a drag.

I'm still missing California - if only they'd send me back....

It's so good to be able to go out to the pub with people and actually have a conversation while you're drinking.
For my friends and family alone - it's good to be back.

If I can get the opportunity to go back however, I would do so in a flash.

Having spoken with one of my friends' girlfriends, it would appear that I missed...

Been getting back to normal now.
Played a few games of badminton. Was shite as usual.
I need to lose more than a few pounds - I'm getting there. I've lost about 3 stone (42 pounds) since the start of November 2004. I only lost a stone in the U.S. though.

Been catching up on the old Cube. RE4 is one of the best fucking...

Still catching up with my old life.

Went out with the boys on Saturday. Didn't stay out late but a good time was had by all. Good to catch up and good to be able to talk about football and stuff.

Sunday was a bummer day as Rangers got beaten by Celtic at Ibrox. The league is as good as over now.

This week is...
