Nights Of Mystery
The title is a song by the Georgia Satellites written by the great Dan Baird.
Most people who know me are aware of my weekend goings on, so won’t go into detail over it here. I’m not sure if documenting everything you do in a public environment is the best thing. Its possible that writing everything that happens in your life can attract a stalkish element, certainly that’s a reason the internet is used (ie to look up every person you’ve ever known) which sometimes can be good and sometimes very bad.
If you are a bizarre person from my history however, you could leave a comment to see if I get back to you.
Anyway sandwiched between the two nights in O’Neills in Kingston and Sutton respectively we have Southampton losing at home to Derby. A game of two halves. Saints should have been four up by half time but alas it was not to be. Watched Spurs Man Utd down Clarets (its good to be back in Cheam again for the football and its always nice to see Spurs get thrashed) and then went to O’Neills (Sutton) on the Sunday night which was surprisingly fun. The guitarist hammered out decent covers of the Who’s Can’t Explain and the Killers Somebody Told Me aswell as stuff from Hendrix, The Stones and John Lee Hooker. Sometimes a bit too flash for his own good he did persuade me to stay for an extra pint that I wasn’t planning. Winning a fiver on the quiz machine also probably helped that decision.
Off to Birmingham and staying the night this coming Saturday. West Brom Saints in a must win game for us, followed by Bloc Party in a show where the curfew in at 9.30 leaving time for plenty of beers after. Birminghams supposed to have had a bit if a recent uplift so no doubt we can find some place suitably trendy. Before that there’s Jimmy Barnes at London’s Borderline on Wednesday.
