Leeds Fest

tickets come out on the 30th of march
sooo excited

last years favourite gig was between Justice and Lethal B
many special memories were made that weekend

i hope it keeps the whole electro theme this year just like 2008
Justice,
CSS,
Digitalism,
SMD
etc... were all amazing and for me the best type of music to be blasted through those million watt speakers

the thing that would make this year so much better is if it was dry
getting cramp everynight and having to sleep in a tent thats to small for me would of been alot worse....
had i not been slaughtered everytime i got into bed

but this year, things to remember:
.travel light (bare clothing essentials, 1 chair, small tent)
. cheap tent so i dont have to drag it home
. take more beer because in the arena its watered down and 3.50 a pint
. find a bag to keep beer/cider cold, warm cider tastes like piss
. remember my wellies
. take a lighter because lighting a fire with matches is pisstake
. supernoodlessssss
. ear plugs so i can camp as close to the dj caravans (they go on until 7:30)
. some jokes form of headwear or t-shirt


and errm with all that i cant really go wrong
fingers crossed this years better than ever

my shitty weekend

everything ran smoothely until today
friday was a funny night,
saturday i had the last training session of the season,
but today it went a little down hill

at 2:00pm this afternoon leeds tigers stood at the top of the north west national league.
by 4:30pm we are now 3rd and 1 spot out of making play-offs and qualifying for the north premier league next year.

premier league would of meant better competition and playing among the best basketballers under 18 in england.
it would of given me a chance of earning a reputation as a player, and given me a chance at the big stage, having scouts come watch my games

but we failed/cheated out of the game.
funny how 1 refferee had the power to either make or brake my career
not that its broken, but severly sprained.

now im back to the same starting spot i was at last year. was it a wasted 12 months?
its wierd how one weekend has made me reconsider everything i have been working towards over the last 4 years
well, not funny at all
