This is Muse at the Hammersmith Apollo (not called that any more I know). Its been wedged into their tour as a charity gig. I hope it'll be cool to see them in a smallish venue and not a massive stadium.

I've got standing tickets, gonna be that 37 year old nerd down near the front who thinks it's too loud.

I've seen AC/DC at the Hammersmith Apollo, it was a long time ago, I don't remember much... except for the cannons.

I never really got into Muse. They've started playing them on Absolute Classic Rock recently :)

I was also planning on maybe swish lunch, Monday lunchtimes are more open on the restaurant front!

All the really good places have a dress code, I doubt jeans and a band t shirt count :(

My Makita compressor. Just got our bikes out of the sheds and all tyres were down. Set the Makita compressor to the required pressure, hold the trigger until it cuts out when its his this desired pressure. 4 tyres done in minutes, where I'd normally have to run the extension lead to the shed and fire up the compressor etc.

Pah, my maid sucks the tyre off while my manservant blows me up.


Or is it the other way round, I can never remember the details.
