Broken Zen NX

My Creative Zen NX went belly up over week ago and I sent it off for repair. Unfortunately, the dingbats at Creative have misplaced the order and claim we need proof of payment again. Even though we did that already.

We wouldn't have sent if off if weren't told it was good to go???

Dominion 24th April

Headed out to Dominion last weekend. Had a great time with Tasha and Finn. Seb did a VJ set which is always cool and was well received by everyone.

A few muppets from upstairs wandered down and were hassling Anita but fortunately, her boyfriend/friends came over and they fecked off.

In music news, I've been trying to buy up more CDs, preferably cheap ones, of different bands. I got All About Eve - Scarlet And Other Stories, Field Of The Nephilim - Earth Inferno and Xmal Deutschland - Tocsin last weekend. All are great and in total cost only 25 euros.

All About Eve gig

Just back from my sister's wedding and during the week beforehand, we got a chance to go see All About Eve in Bury near Manchester.

They were supported by, a late arriving, The Last Dance. They did a great performance despite their rushed setup and sounded quite like The Cruxshadows (in fact they thank them in their CD inlay). I got one of their albums, Whispers In Rage, which I've seen before in a few magazines. I'm looking forward to getting a chance to listen to it properly.

Again, the delay held up All About Eve who had been at the venue since before The Last Dance arrived. They did an excellent set which was very similar to their set list at Whitby (think this gig was a continuation of a tour) including Our Summer, What Kind Of Fool, etc. but no Martha's Harbour even though someone in the audience called for it :-) Julianne and Andy joked about between songs and kept the mood enjoyable despite running late and having to axe some tracks. Got their Iceland CD for the lovely track Melting and their DVD which, so far, looks very polished and has plenty of content.

All in all a great time and look forward to listening to their material.

Back to work now I suppose
