Beat Monica

Once upon a time I wondered what an odd thing a harmonica was - it was the eighties and as far as pop culture went, the harmonica amnesty was still in force. I did some reads about this mystic machine. This is what I know. Harmonica comes from the words harmony and monica which in other languages means "beardy wind". It also comes from Hohner.

The bestest harmonica man is called Son of Dave. I liked him, mainly cause his dad is Dave. Secondly cause he did a musicmental on Jools Holland and it made my ears toot. The rubbishest thing I ever saw on the hamonica was a fart-monica film posted on the b3ta site a couple years ago.

Good job there is more harmonic mash-ups though. Else this post would go as stale as a couch crumb. And you'd have all stopped reading when you realised none of this has anything to do with a fat man in a nappy. Everyone woot for beatboxer Yuri Lane! He posted this little viral video on the interwebs back in the past. What a confused little man. Harmonium and beat treats?! Whatever next... beatbox flute?

Short Notice

A reminder: the Hoodlum Tribe radio show starts at 9pm (an hour and a half from now). Germaine will be a guest, and I might drop by as well. Just go to HoodlumTribe.com and follow the instructions.

If you fancy going out tonight, here are two recommendations.

The Earlies at the Academy. Don't know much else about that one. I couldn't blag free tickets, so I'm not going anymore.

or

Kathe Izzo, who's doing the Love Shack thing at the Contact (which I did today - it was wonderful, would say more but Germaine hasn't had her turn yet), is performing at the Mint Lounge. Here's the flyer

I helped this woman, Barbara Nice, crowd surf from the Malarkey comedy stage to the bar at Bar XS tonight. It was the single most amusing and frightening thing I've done all year. I was there cuz my pal Cat was performing at the Funny Women's comedy competition, sponsored by Sheila's wheels. It was awesome and now I am completely unfunny.

:: ouch my ears

At approx 7:30AM GMT Saturday 13th May, I woke up to close the skylight in my room which was letting rain fall on my head, as I reached for the window --KABOOM!!-- It was the loudest bang I ever heard, it resonated through everything. There were no flashes to suggest it was thunder and lightning and no other thunderous noises followed, so, as I haven't heard or read anything about it just wondering if anyone here heard it also and if so, what the fu8k was it? cheers
