Razorlight @ The Olympia

Hi-fi 2006 I saw some amazing acts, The streets, The Prodigy & Ian Brown, but my favorite act of the weekend was definitly Razorlight so when they announced a Dublin date in The Olympia i knew i had to go..even if it meant selling my body! Thankfully it didnt come to that as Suzanne Kane (Sat night download chart) had a connection with the tour manager. 

We arrive at the gig not realizing he'd

 sorted us out with our own box!

You can see from my pics our seats were unreal!!!

The crowd were brilliant too, singing along to every song which made the gig even better. One guy in particular was lovin it.. I'm convinced he wanted to have a love child with Johnny (the lead singer). Ha!

At one stage some girl from the front row threw up a perl bracelet (i'm

 guessing it was fake!) and Johnny took it and wore it for the rest of the gig, i could see the girl who threw it. She wet her pants!

 

At the end of the show when they came back on for their encore some little scumbag snook up to one of the boxes beside the stage and threw a pint down at Johnny, the whole crowd boo'd your man and from what the security guy told me afterwards he got what he deserved! ha!

Razorlight's new album 'Slipway Fires' is out now.. 

Madagascar Premier..

I love getting calls from Paramount.. cause it usually means a Premier is coming up!

On Tues it was the Irish Premier for the new Madagascar flick. I was a bit iffy about going cause i thought it was just gonna be a kids film and I'd look like a wierdo there with no kids so i kidnapped my friends 3 little nippers to fit in with the crowd!

My planned worked perfectly, I was like a cameleon... 

ha!

The movie is brilliant with loads of visual comedy for the young ones and lots and lots of one liners for the adults in the audience!

Well worth a watch.. I'd recommend borrowing a kid to bring, a relative or friends child. Obviously get the parents permission, the last thing i need is to be up in court with some fruit loop trying to blame me, saying i said it was OK for them kidnap someone's child!

Go see it & let me know what you thought..

FM104's Christmas Party

Wow..

Where to start!

I've worked in a few different places in my time but never have i been involved with a company that put so much effort into the Chrimbo bash. 

We were collected from the station at midday on Saturday, everyone climbed aboard the Party bus! The plan was to head down to Galway and stay in the Raddisson SAS Hotel... all paid for!!

YES....TOTALLY FREE!

On the bus the guys from production put together a CD of impressions, bloopers and Christmas music. It was so funny.. no1 got away from the abuse (yes even me!)

We arrived at the hotel just around 5pm (after a stop off in athlone for a bite to eat & some liquid refreshments!) ha! With a couple of hours to kill before the meal i decided to hit the outdoor hot-tub on the balcony to relax before the craziness began!

I wont go into any detail about the night.. as everyone at the station took the sacred oath 'what happens on tour, stays on tour!' ha!

but these photos say more than i ever could!

Feeder @ The Ambassador

Sleeping blissfully on thurs afternoon my phone goes off.. 

Its Suzanne Kane (Sat night download chart) she's got guestlist passes for Feeder at the Ambassador.. Wanna go? ...eh YEAH!

Went to the gig, turns out Suzanne knows the band (dark horse!). 

.

.

Found this out half way through the gig when Mark (the drummer) nods up at us on the balcony. I'm thinking, why the hell is the drummer waving at me! then i realise, its not me he's waving at at all! Its Suzanne!

The gig was rocking and we ended up hanging out with the lads afterwards!!                          

They were such cool guys. especially the drummer Mark, such a sound bloke! 

Feeder have been knocking around for years churning out quality rocky/pop tunes like 'Buck Rogers' 'Just The Way I'm feeling' and 'Tumble & Fall'. 

They even let the fans take over the music video for 'Just A Day'. Asking them to record themselves singing the song and edited the best ones together! 

Quality vid, check it out on youtube. . 

Feeder's latest album 'Silent Cry' is now available in all good record stores and some crap ones too.

Sorry bro..

Just logged on to O2.ie to use some of my 250 free txts to txt my bro in Austrailia and ...its under going renovation until 6am.. basically the exact same lenght of time i'm in work!
Nice!

thanks O2!

Monday Night Tv!

Wow.. 

Monday nights are sorted for the next while.. 

I'm a celeb followed by the  Apprentice. . Quality!

Did you see it tonight, Joe(Eastenders Actor) & Nicola,fiance to footballer Tom Williams (does that really qualify as a 'celebrity') anyway, they went head to head in the 'I Scream Van' bush tucker trail. So funny!!

Joe gagging on a croc's meat & two veg! Horrible. . . . but brilliant Tv!

In the apprentice the two teams had sat-navs to sell. they did so so so bad!

One of the teams made €175 profit the other team only made €32 profit! I reckon i could have done better!!!

Poor old Sarah heard those famous words... YOUR FIRED!
