Leeds Festival 2007


Just a quick update to say that I have my ticket for this years festival and I think it has potential to be better than last year. Not too sure about who I am going to see yet but either way I think I am going to have a wicked time.


Do people understand flashmobs?


This is a question I have been considering since the release of the plans for the second flashmob in Newcastle. I am making a presumption here that you all know what one is, but if you don’t check out Wiki. The point is that whoever has drawn up the plans for this event does not seem to have a great understanding of the whole concept. I mean it sounds fine at the start where we all have to curl up in a ball at the sound of a whistle. But after this has been done we are expected to do some random dancing before a “mystery” event occurs which is all due to last around 10 minutes (in total) before the crowd is due to disburse.

Now to me that doesn’t seem much like a flashmob, more of a meeting. I might be being a bit pedantic here but flashmob does contain the word “flash” which would imply that a mob of people suddenly appear do something then bugger off again. No suddenly appear, wait around for 10 minutes before buggering off. To me this is too long and is actually getting on my nerves.

What’s also annoying about all of this is that the idea is not original. This flashmob event is merely made up of 2 different flashmobs stuck together with a “mystery” event included to mix it up a bit. If I had my way I would get everyone to just turn up and get into a ball or for everyone to know a certain dance routine then when the mob meets everyone just does this mini dance routine before buggering off (the dancing part of the mob tomorrow, 15th, does not include a prepared dance routine or anything of the like).

Rant over.


I think more was needed


I felt the summary of my life since I stopped blogging was inadequate so I have got a collection of photos which sums up my life (to a certain extent) from January 2007 to the end of Feburary 2007. Normal routine (of updating) will start again tomorrow.

I am a bad bad person


This is actually not true, just every now and again I am a complete dickhead. I say every now and again….Anyway this is not the point, the point is that I have not updated this blog in quite sometime as I have been too busy drinking and that’s about it really. So I feel that a quick summary of my life is needed.

Christmas passed, got given a toasty maker and a George Foreman grill.
Had exams, got 80 and 81 which are firsts (score).
Done a lot of drinking.
Dean Windass put on loan to Hull (which is the pure reason Bradford City are going to be relegated)
Decided I can’t do assembly line code and that I am going to fail that module.

Now that quick summary is over I feel that some really blogging should begin.

I feel that I should say something about Vista as I do computers etc. etc. So here is a quick summary of Vista for all of you (which I doubt is pretty much no one) who care.

Vista = shit (because I say so).

This blog entry is becomming far too random so I think I shall go delete all my spam comments instead. Good day to you all.
