Now then, now then.
We played a ruddy blinder on Tuesday at Cafe 1001. Thanks to everyone who made it down, it was an awesome evening. A good time had by all.
I am currently nursing a bit of a cold. I’m not a wizz with the computers but I’m pretty sure you can’t catch it from [...]
Bloody Lovelies.
February 19th, 2010Boom Boom Tish
February 18th, 2010Our house has lost yet another light-bulb. Who will take the responsibility to fix it? Let’s weigh up the options:
How many singers does it take to change a lightbulb?
Two. One to screw it in and the other to say “Isn’t that a little high for you?”
How many guitarists does it take to change a [...]
The Importance Of Being Musical.
February 16th, 2010The Importance Of Being Musical
I found myself in a particularly uninspired mood for a blog subject today. That’s not to say nothing is happening. The Wutars continue to work their hardest with gigs aplenty and recording sessions filling up the rest of our time, but there’s only so much material to be found there.
And so [...]
Valentines Schmalentines.
February 14th, 2010It’s Valentine’s Day everyone.
According to Wikipedia, it’s ”an annual holiday held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions.” Which sounds quite nice.
Mind you, a political party in Pakistan called ‘Jamaat-e-Islami’ want to have the holiday banned completely. They say that it’s ”a shameful day. The people in the West are just fulfilling and [...]
Veronica & The Wutars…May 2006-February 2010
February 10th, 2010Dear friends, one has to know when this is the right time to leave, despite the overwhelm of doubts and emotions… Believe me, this was one of the toughest decisions I ever had to take . After years of breathing for the Wutars, I feel that I have reached my own limits as their manager. [...]
Jump In My Sledge.
February 8th, 2010Saturday night, of which you’ll hear very much more of very soon I’m sure, got ever so slightly messy. After a brilliant set at the Barfly in Camden that included a stage invasion that ended in a crash landing and improvising with 3 electric guitars on stage, we brought one or two people (or nine [...]
Saturday’s children
February 6th, 2010Morning kids,
Barfly tonight, killed it in rehearsal on Thursday and are match fit to play a blinder. Last night Manzini and I started laying the foundations for 9 album tracks (thanks Dellboy for lending us your Vox – she’s being taken care of), we were at it until the birds (and various media-types) started tweeting [...]
BEARD UPDATE: Day 19
February 5th, 2010As you may be aware, Maz and Sam decided – in the pub might I add – that it would be a good idea for us all to invent our own month of Manuary and grow beards. We bloody did it.
19 days in, we look like the hirsute creatures of the night that you see above. What [...]
Kewie’s Been Thinking.
February 4th, 2010 Rain is good weather for Led Zeppelin 4. It works well with tracks like ‘Four Sticks’ and ‘When The Levee Breaks’.
It also works well with albums such as ‘Meat Is Murder’ by The Smiths, most Morrissey albums and ‘After The Goldrush’ by Neil Young.
Listening to Jimi Hendrix in the rain doesn’t work somehow (unless you’re [...]
More Vally Bloggage.
February 3rd, 2010Good day,
I think it was Swiss Toni* (remember him?) who once said “playing a concert is very much like making love to a beautiful woman. You’re filled with nerves and adrenaline as the lights go down, there’s a lot of yelling and wooping while you work up your sweat, and when it’s over you graciously [...]
