Me, stagediving

I ripped that video bootleg, oh yeah, this has been worth waiting for...

Oh yeah this has been worth waiting for here's a clip of me on stage at the London Astoria, 1991. What, you blinked? Watch it again! That's me bottom left for a few seconds.



Particularly poignant as it's GONE now. I bought this bootleg video a while after the gig on a trip to Camden market. It has been festering in a drawer until I finally figured out how to rip it and share it!

I have the whole concert now, if you want it I will sell you a DVD of it, or maybe just bittorrent it.

It's definitely a mighty mighty dive, don't call it "stage falling"...

Noisy night in tonight

I'm ripping a Revolting Cocks bootleg from 1991

Bizarrely this arrived in the post the other day with no note or anything. There was a return address though, and from that Clare thinks it was sent to her because she signed up for something agreeing to review baby products on some parenting website. So, while Clare is out with Emma tonight I'm giving it a go, "rescuing" a bootleg video of The Revolting Cocks at London Astoria, a gig I was at in 1991. I know you can see me stagediving on the video but can not really be bothered to watch the whole thing to remember how much of me you can see. If I upload it somewhere, you can do that for me! Man alive it's a racket, I think we only went along because of all the bad press the band had got and a lot of their shows had been banned. It's not a great quality video, but it is better than this one that's already on youtube.

That might have been me at 22' 55''. But it might not.

Going to see what other videos I have that I might want to convert to DVD. I appear to have prioritised this gig over my own wedding video, oops.

The Beiderbeck Collection

Why can't I find this to rent (or download)? http://bit.ly/1aafOz

On the lookout for CRIME! Don't have to look too far for that living in Folkestone you'd think, but I mean on TV. We seem to have exhausted all the British detective show series we can get, we've done all the Morse, Frost, Marple, Dalziel and Pascoe etc we can find, can't think of any more to watch.

I remember this, James Bolam and Barbara Flynn, just the sort of thing we'd like to watch now on a Sunday night. But it's not available to rent, bah, and quite expensive to buy. Pay day this week though.

In THE BEIDERBECKE AFFAIR, Trevor and Jill are school teachers who enter a complex world of mysterious intrigue. THE BEIDERBECKE CONNECTION tells of more unlikely adventures of the two schoolteachers. THE BEIDERBECKE TAPES is another story of Trevor Chaplin and Jill Swinborne who enter a world of adventure as Trevor is offered some jazz tapes from the barman at his local pub. One of the tapes contains some alarming information and when they return to challenge the barman they find he has disappeared.
