A Lack Of Colour

As you may or may not have noticed I havn't posted here in a while, Because I really can't be fucked. 

I doubt I will be making many, if any at all in the near future, sorry, but I doubt anyone actually cares.

A Faceless Name.

About a week about I went to see Killing The Dream/The Carrier/ More Than Life/Unrestrained at the Underworld Camden.  The first band up were Unrestrained over from the states, today was the last date on their European tour. They sounded brilliant, full of passion and anger, just my type of band. They also spoke about some issues between their songs, which I know no everyone enjoyed, but I personally enjoy it. Next up were probably my favorite new UK band at the moment, scratch that the World. Ive been playing this record pretty much no stop since I got it. The last time I saw them they were brilliant, but I didn't really know them that well at the time. This time though I was well into it. There was only me, my mate and maybe two other people who were getting involved, which was a shame but still, they were fantastic and played with such rage and passion that I thought was long lost. Next up was The Carrier who were pretty good, I wasn't too into them before this show, but tonight they hooked me in, they played a storming set but in turn lead me to pick up the 7". Then tonight's headline Killing The Dream came one, they opened with my favorite song by them, Fractures. Which I got the mic handed to me during the "we are letting go bit". Which pretty much made my good night even better. This band are fantastic in every way. Go see them , pick up their new record and you will see instantly was I'm talking about. 

On Saturday came the hugely anticipated Royal Rumble alldayer. The day really started by me meeting Leanne at Victoria Station, getting donuts and catching the tube up to Camden. On they way we en-counted 4chan people, with V for Vendetta masks playing that Chocolate Rain song very loudly. We arrived at the venue, found James and got our passes hung out with the Search Party boys for a bit and drank some Buckfast (don't try it.). Then we went to see the Search Party boys. This was their first show out of Glasgow, but you couldn't tell. They played asif they had been doing this for years. So much energy, so much talent. I really really hope they get some more English shows, hell maybe even a tour, god knows they deserve it. Next was Lonewolves, a relatively new band, but still a fucking good band. The tunes are fresh but still have plenty of intensity, and brilliance. Expect big things from them in the coming months. Next we have Chaos Days. Now being the only Pop Punk band on pretty much an exclusive Hardcore show, certainly has its disadvantages.  And not everyone in the crowd was into them.

BRB gonna go see ringworm/xbishopx will finish this off later.

Um.

I haven't updated this in ages, sorry for that. I tend to put off writing another entry, as I'm never sure what to write or if people actually give a flying about my life or my opinions. But here I am writing another entry, and I'm sure not sure why I am.

So since the last time I was here a bit of stuff has happened. I wouldn't say alot and I wouldn't say nothing, so a bit will do. Christmas and the New Year came and went bringing large amounts of weight, alcohol and presents which I very much enjoyed. The weight however I did not, and I never do. I could go as far  as saying I detest my weight, however thats another rant for another day. I also finished up my work (as it was only temporary) and I am now unemployed, which I'm finding horrible.  I also got payed which was and still is amazing, however I'm spending it at a ridiculously quick rate. Ive spent quite alot of it on tshirt/vinyl/gig tickets and not alot else. I will however later tonight be buying train tickets to Belgium for Groezrock fest which I am very very excited about.  

I am also excited about the gigs I have coming up which I am looking forward to alot. This includes seeing More Than Life twice in one week and Lower Than Atlantis twice in two weeks. 

I dont really have alot else to say at the moment, so I'll try and update it when I do.
