So.. A nice day was had by all - NOT! It pi$$ed rain from about 10am thru 10pm.. The longest sustained Rain felt in ireland since January.. Amazing.. Utterly amazing.. Ah well, at least the tents and enclosed areas were rammed - as they always are at these things.. Usually it`s because everyone is so malleted that they fear the sky falling on their heads, so get undercover, THIS time the sky really WAS fallin on our heads.. So, I guess you are itching to hear the fab gossip from behind the scenes aren`t you? Sadly there is very little. You will be thrilled to hear the VIP out-door arena was Completely devoid of attention, even though the music bieng played from the wigwam was excellent - so much for VIP status - it all means fu*k-all when the rain is pouring down.. A close 2nd to the teepee in the empty-courtyard was the WALTZER fairground ride, which as usual was banging out the bumpiest happiest tunes on the site, and had an audience bopping around in the mud infront of it while the crusties tortured guitars on 12 stages around it in front of 2 million tonnes of mud and wood-chippings.. Actually, the Mud wasn`t all that bad thanks to the wood-chippings in fairness - a lesson learned from the Ledgendary Mud-fight at WITLESS a few years back i guess - but it worked a treat.. I only had 55% wetness, and mild exposure, and an eye infection after my little adventure at the end of the night.. Oh, did i not tell you about the ADVENTURE? Right. 1am, everybody has gone home, and i am finished on the radio, so we shutdown the Nucleur-Power station, and Prepare the Backpacks for the 2-minute journey to the Space-Taxi.. The plan was we leave via the Staff resteraunt, accross the VIP-courtyard, through a Gate and over the the R33 Torque-master parked in the Staff Carpark - for which we had a pass (oh yes), and then after a quick Boston Creme or 2 in the mud (it would be rude not 2..) we would be off to play NIGHT DRIVER on the most confusing Road in Ireland - the Naas Dualler.. Oh yes. Sadly though, just like the Rain Fuc*ed the day, the Spaz in the Yellow Bib Messed with my Shit. "No you can't walk through here.. My boss etc.. No, sorry, It`s all shut down now (etc.)".... I protest, flashing all my ID - ID which i must add not only gives me permission to take a dump on the pope if i want, but requires any Official Present to HELP me do it if i ask!! Nah, these people were having NONE of it.. They Had Yellow Bibs, and a RADIO HANDSET (ohhhhhhh....) so this was obviously going to end up in us enuffing them and walking around them.. No, they were quite insistant.. We had to go BACK the way we came, and walk with everyone else IN THE WRONG DIRECTION IN THE DARK CARRYING EQUIPMENT IN THE MUD AND THE DARK AND THE RAIN IN THE WRONG DIRECTION IN THE DARK WITH NO IDEA WHERE WE ARE GOING. Ok, so i am turning off & on my Car alarm with my Keyfob while arguing my case and it`s BEEP can be heard in the distance - no, No difference, these people have Yellow Bibs and a Radio - that is final. So, do i REALLY want to hit this person i have never met before? Do i care that much? No, not really, I just don`t care, and i realise that this is the highlight of these poor cnuts day, they are even trembling with the adrenalin - and i`m not.. Not ever a tremor. I get more fear going for a dump after a Sanam Special Balti.. Right, we walk then, and fu*k you, and fu*k you too. So we walk, and walk and walk. We finally get tired of going in the wrong direction after about 15 minutes, and boldly step through a barrier into a clear area with tarmac, with cool-people's cars parked.. and we try to get back to the place we started in, but from the OUTSIDE of the military no-go area.. just under an HOUR after we left the Broadcast site, we arrived at the 'Liner.. And who was waiting opposite the car for their pickup (which was late..) - the REST of the RTE crew, who had walked the way we WANTED to in the first place - a dry walk of 2 mins on Tarmac, Oh, And we could SEE the tip of the link-antennas on the RTE mobile from where we stood - it was that close.. Soaked, covered in Mud (which neatly transferred itself to the skyline's interior..) and SO pi$$ed off you cannot measure it. The Lesson to be learned? The next time a person with a Yellow Dayglo Bib and a radio tells you to do something Fuc*ing stupid, Pretend they aren't there, and if they dare to touch you - Hit them - You will Thank yourself Afterwards. Yes, i know, violence is deplorable, but i have had enough of this crap. And another thing, house music sucks again.. yes, i know, it was great for a while, but i`m sick of it again now.. (etc.)

Right.. Been horribly busy last few weeks, as you may have noticed! Looks like the DIGITAL arm of Spring recordings ("spring-loaded") is about to become a reality.. iTunes and BEATPORT should carry some spring stuff by the end of the summer.. So, finally you can get some Non-Pilfered versions of your favorite spring tunes and such.. The NOT FOR SALE album has now reverted BACK to bieng a limited Double CD, with web-releases for the less-obviously stolen tunes.. (phew) I'm also going to take my first trip abroad to a hotter place then Ireland since the Incident back "then", so i`m undergoing therapy now for me nerves and so on, and everybody in the bratcave is feeling the tension..

Preperation is underway today of OXEGEN as well.. as you know the Springsession this week comes LIVE from the Festiva, saturday 10pm thruogh 1am.. the SESSIONS are in place as usual .. Right, have to box off the beer & skittles now.. Oh, and my WHO parka. (fishtail)
