Primal Scream

I wanna get Loaded

"I Wanna Get Loaded"

Got to see Primal Scream last in the Savoy, Cork. Great venue, holds a few hundred people. Perfect to see Bobby Gillespie rocking it out, well holding onto the microphone for his life. Munster v Blacks was on before the gig and was fairly drunk watching that so the gig is a bit of blur but everyone has pointed out to me that I went wild inside and why not? Drinks why.

Guns N’ Roses long awaited “Chinese Democracy” has finally surfaced onto the internet, full release not just half assed songs or those bootlegs of their new songs, this is the real deal. It’s downloading as I type this so looking forward to listening to it, heard the title track a few days ago, its not bad. I was expecting worse. 

Killers new album should be appearing soon, wasn’t a fan of Hot Fuss but I think Sam’s Town is a great album, a nice pop album. But their new song “Human” and “Spaceman” haven’t made an impression, suppose will have to see how the album is once it hits the shelves.

Absolutley knackered after the gig, Ross cooked us a massive fry-up this morning, it’s the only cure after a good night of drinking. It was great being back down in Cork but looking back on what I was up to in UCC and what Im doing now in LIT - I’m happy that I’m progressing in life again!

Working on Site

I’m currently working on the site so if things appear as if they shouldn’t don’t fret, I’m re-designing the site so Im bound to make things break. Hold On..

edit: Yeah things are falling into place but I’m not quite finished, content has to be added. I have a nice list of useful websites and a list of  for people in uni who can’t access their favourite websites. I will be testing all of these in LIT tomorrow, none of the sites will mention  so the filter shouldn’t be able to pick up what your doing. Thats why the p word is an image in this post.

I’ve got Primal Scream tomorrow night in Cork, myself, Duni and Rory are heading down to go some serious boozing with Ross, looking forward to it.

Bit drunk, just won a table quiz over in Brandons with Phillip & Danny and decided to keep drinking, spotted this photo on Flickr by IceCatSeoul. Thought it was nice so decided to share it. Click for the full image.

I love the BBC

I love the BBC website, it contains so much information on varied topics - daily news, entertainment, technolgy - each divided into the different continents of the world. Theres no category for Ireland so I always check out whats going on in England and each day you learn something new and sick.

Like today for example, Im after learning about Baby P.

The 17-month-old died in August last year after suffering a catalogue of injuries, including a broken back. The baby also had eight fractured ribs, bruises and an injury which caused him to swallow one of his teeth. After his death, puncture marks and an X-shaped tear were found on the baby’s head. Miss Robson told the court that the marks had been consistent with dog bites, and said a dog’s teeth may have also been scraped over the baby’s head.

And yesterday I had seen an article with the world “Shannon” in it but failed to click on it but was informed about this Shannon by Síomha yesterday. A girl named Shannon had been reported missing back in February by her mother, on the 999 call she sounded perfectly calm announcing she had seen her child since dropping her off to school in the morning and this information answers why:

Shannon’s mother, Karen Matthews, and Michael Donovan are on trial over the nine-year-old’s disappearance in West Yorkshire in February this year. The disappearance of Shannon, now 10, became one of the highest-profile missing person inquiries ever seen in the UK. Shannon had been drugged and tethered in the flat where she was found in March by her Parents where she has kept hostage for a 24 day period.

The UK really has some fucked up cases, this one I find hilarious:

A dentist found guilty of urinating in a surgery sink and other unhygienic practices has started a High Court appeal to save his career. He was also found guilty of using dental instruments to clean his ears and fingernails.

Maybe I like to make a comparsion between the UK and Ireland and take pleasure in knowing that the UK has more interesting news reports.
