I woke up at about half 5 this morning. I've had this weird chesty cough the last couple of days, and I keep waking up mad early, finding it difficult to breathe. I went to get a drink of milk cuz that usually makes me feel better, but we didn't have any. Instead I had some Pineapple squash. It wasn't the best idea. It didn't help me at all and it also gave me awful heartburn. Fuck's sake.
So now I'm up. It's for the best I think, because I have to hand in an assignment today that I forgot to do, so now I can do it. I'm not in until 3 and it's only 250 words long, so it should be a breeze.
I went to a club night called New Slang in Kingston last night. It was pretty deadly. There were 3 bands playing. The first band were called Brontide and they were class. Check 'em out. Really excellent live. Tight as fuck and mad energetic. I can't remember the name of the second band, but I wasn't into them much anyway. Indie pop rock stuff. Meh. Then the headliners were Dananananakroyd. It's a pretty class name, and they were actually pretty good aswell. They seemed a bit like dicks though. At one point the singer jumped into the crowd and everyone started push-moshing. He just started shouting "STOP FUCKING MOSHING" over and over which I thought was hilarious. Then he just started giving out to everyone, saying "MOSHING IS FOR LOSERS". I'd have loved to go up and start windmilling but I'm shit at it and would have made a tit of myself haha. Then halfway through they told everyone to make a split down the middle, but they said "This isn't the Wall of Death. The Wall of Death is for LOSERS. Instead of running into each other, on the count of 4 you're going to HUG each other. This is the Wall of CUDDLES". So they counted to 4 and everyone hugged each other. It was actually pretty funny, but looked just as uncomfortable as a Wall of Death, cuz everyone was squashed into one another. Later on they made everyone do the split again but this time they got them to hold hands together and make an arch, then told people to run through it because they were 'Ordained ministers' and were going to marry people. They a lot of fun live, but I can bet they're stuck up their own holes.
On way out I went and bought this:
I didn't get the Minor Threat reference straight away but it's a cool shirt nonetheless. White T-shirts are the best.
When I was buying it I got talking to one of the Banquet Records lads because I'd overheard him talking about Adebisis Shank. I told him I'd played with them once with Skeptik Tank, and apparently he'd heard of Skep too. I have no idea how, we never played in the UK or even plugged ourselves here at all. It was pretty cool though. I told him about Moshspace anyways and he said he'd check it out, but who knows.
I have to go an do a SHITLOAD of washing and cleaning, and also try to do my assignment...ugh. I probably won't get it done after all.

Indie hipster cunts seem to be going mad for Minor Threat rips these days...
Haha! True, except the Banquet lads are definitely hardcore.
