Got the day started just right fucked off from work around 12.30 had me beans on toast to line me guts, Then it"s round to my mates place for beer and loud music. Got to Wolverhampton around 14.30 parked the motor and stumbled into the pub, Over the next couple of hours more drinking buddies arrive and the atmosphere generally gets louder and and more pissed, We get warned for throwin bits of me mates pub grub around (Well I did anyhow ). As we were starting to get a bit oiled we made a move on up to the venue great place holds a couple of thousand. Back doors are wide open so we just walks in an we"r in time to catch the end of The Wildhearts sound check then also Therapys sound check too. I manage to get a word with Paul (Bass player in the Wildhearts who gets the pissed ripped out of him for looking like Homer Simson ;D) and also C.J time for more booze. Back too the pub for more piss taking and booze, Sitting here now I can"t remember walking from the pub back to the gig later but I must of done cuz I got a pint passed to me and we headed in for Therapy. Therapy wuz great they really got the crown bouncing with new stuff and tracks of there brilliant TROUBLEGUM album, It seeded like they enjoyed it too as a couple of electric banjos were trashed an fuck off into the crowd good stuff. The Wildhearts are like MOTORHEAD in a way, Not in sound or how they look but they"v been though a lot of shit with boozin drugs the press tryin to rip um apart, An a lot of people have heard of them but nothin by them.I don"t think they will ever be megger but they will always get a good crowd so when they took the stage it was something like "Evenin yer fuckin bastards nice to see yuz" then they let rip. An me poor ole ear holes got a good duffin up again over the next hour they seem more tighter than on other times I"v seen them (Possibllly due to the no drinking before a gig as I was told earlier by C.J and Homer). The band enjoyed the gig the crowd was nuttso and mymates an me wuz pissed, We stuck round later and had a couple of photo"s with them (No Ginger thou he must of been hav"in his locks sorted out ;D) then I managed to to drive me an me mate home without bring attention to the fact that I was still pissed to the local law enforcers still whats the odd red light green light between mates eh !. Today I had to put a sink unit in a shit hole in Birmingham, Not good when your heads thumping an you wanna spew ya guts up cuz the kitchen a fuckin mess,Still we can"t all be clean live mothers now can we !.
