Drumming is good for you

Well at least according to BBC News it is.
I always thought it was good exercise, as well as great fun.
My drums have always been the main thing I miss when I'm away from home, which unfortunately is all too often lately.

Blink 182 Reunion?

MTV have announced that Blink 182 will be reuniting to play the Grammys. I was a big fan a few years ago and still have a soft spot for their stuff. Travis barker is recovering nicely after the plane crash which killed his assistant and Bodyguard. He was an inspiration when I first started playing drums and I still can't figure out how he does some of the things he does.
ANyway in celebration here's one of my favourite videos of all time, What's my age again?

Weekend

Went in search of a pub last Friday night for a quite pint with Cathal, in the Smithfield area thats not that easy.
Having to put off the advances of a hooker on the way, Dice Bar was the first port of call. First time there and thought it was a nice place. Nowhere to sit unfortunately, so we went on to the cobblestone. Also my first time there and we spent and even briefer time there.
We finally settled in the Glimmerman on Manor St, an old haunt from the Arbour Hill days. An interestingly decorated place, cheap pints & a good mix of tunes on the jukebox, its a surprise that it wasn't busier, not that I was complaining at the time.

Anyway when I got home I watched some TV and crashed out for work on Saturday. A well spent Friday night all in all.

Saturday was work follwed by the recession session on Charlemount street.

Sunday was the Superbowl, good game and good half time show to boot. Go Steelers!

The Fear

I quite like this song, I'm not sure how this affects my musical taste really. Am I becoming a popbitch?
