It is that time of year again...



So it is that time of year again let me begin with wishing you all a...


And for whatever reason if you don’t do Christmas. (Then this is for you)




I have had a cracker of a year in 2014 with awesome gigs, my talks and other things taking off, Download Festival and Wheelchair Rugby.

It’s been  a year full of positives and only a few negatives , butting heads with doctors and FA kicking in hard for a few months but hey that’s always going to happen after all I do have a  progressive illness.

But hey

It’s CHRISTMAS 

 
And it’s going to be a quiet Christmas for me as I am ill and slowly losing my voice.
Whatever you get up to this time of year be Safe, have Fun and tell people that you Love them.


I’m looking forward to another great year in 2015 already got very cool and exciting stuff in the pipe line, 

of course I will continue to blog it all in 2015.

Yes! It's been a great year! Thanks to Everyone for being a part of it

Last gig of the year



So as 2014 draws to a close, I had my last 2 gigs of the year this weekend. 

Saturday night I went to see my friends band Rock the Christmas stage in Bournemouth town, and yes did they Rock it great set by them as always.

Check out this band there are amazing and I am not just saying this because I know them, they truly Rock so go check them out do it right now. 

And if you ever get a chance to see them live then do that too, I took a friend on Saturday night and after he said to me “wow they were a lot better than what I thought they would be... he enjoyed it. 

The only problem was it was an outdoors stage, and it was so cold Saturday night down here in Bournemouth, safe to say I was Jean Claude Van Damme cold (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_N4l0s7qU0) so hopped on a bus and headed for my favourite drinking place in Bournemouth The Anvil (http://www.theanvilbournemouth.co.uk/) had few drinks with Awesome friends and even made it home in time for the last #UFC of the year.

Just like Charlie Sheen Saturday night I was #Winning. 

Sunday night I went to see Deaf Havana at the O2 Academy here in Bournemouth, with my bud Chris. It was such a good show I forgot the support bands names but they were really good too, it got a little sad when Deaf Havana hit the stage and they were telling us stories of how they can’t afford to pay their phone bill and how a few months back they were thinking of calling it a day. I for one am so glad they didn’t and I’m a proud to say that   Deaf Havana will go down as the last band I saw live in 2014.

Here's the setlist 

                                                                 (and a little video)


Now as disabled person I think a should add this in, I had to use the toilet last night at the O2 Academy (first time ever I should add) and they use a radar key which I do own I just left it at home (it’s such a big F’ing key you need a Mr. T chain, to carry the thin haha)
                                                          (told you it's bloody huge)

 so anyway spoke to a member of staff and after a few minutes she found me a key, I got in the toilet and holy shit I think it use to be used as the cleaners cupboard probably the smallest disabled toilet I’ve been in, as you all know I have custom made wheelchair so It’s not that wide, some people have bigger and wider wheelchairs than me they must struggle in there. Even Chris text me saying “How big is this pee? Haha

So O2 Academy Bournemouth if you are reading this you need a bigger disabled toilet.

But still the gig and my weekend was All the Fun :-)
