You are not a f*cking DJ. You’re an overpaid, untalented, cake-throwing c*nt.

Not a good 2 days for me as far as headphones go. My Sennheisers died yesterday, and I've been looking for my iPhone headphones for ages now. Went to iron a shirt and found them in the pocket. Unlike a tenner that's been put through the wash these are unfortunately unusable

Abandoned on Everest

Heard something about that on the radio the other day. Apparently they're trying to do a clean up but it's nigh on impossible. I'd known that there are quite a lot of bodies left but didn't think it was soo many. Isn't there a bit of an unwritten rule in the Death Zone that if you can't make it on your own that you're just left there? It would certainly explain the amount of bodies.

That was very interesting and very grim! Gonna scratch climbing Everest off my list of things to do before I die list.

Fck me those clips of various mad bastrds hanging off cranes and that are mental. I was never afraid of heights when I was younger but about 5 years ago I was out walking with a mate and his dog... he lives in Shankill and we wandered up towards the old lead mines. Thought it was a good idea to climb the lead mine chimney, didn't look that high and there were nice spiraling steps to get to the top, no rail or anything though to prevent you falling off the steps. Anyway, got to the top and proceeded to have a chat and look at the view all over Dublin. Then I got the brainwave to look down - I almost sh1t myself, unbelievable sense of fear and literally felt sick... had to go down step by step on my arse the whole way down! It doesn't look that high but bloody feels it when you are up the top...

I've been up there a good bit on my bike, but the bottom steps are gone now, whether through natural causes or prevention I don't know. Would've loved to have climbed it but I can well imagine it being a scary view from the top, particuarly with no rails!

Final of the X-Factor tonight. Not interested in the slightest, but I have to admit that it's funny sitting beside the OH who's in tears at the drippy sh1te they have at the start of the show.

The lowest steps were missing when I went up - you had to climb up to reach the next step and then you could go all the way up. Felt grand going up, only literally when I looked down from the top did I get a tad scared!

I dunno - they might try and quote the part of the above article which states the place is a "popular nightclub"

I had a very intersting night last night. I was over visiting friends in London and a guy I know DJ's at this club so we went along to check it out. No bloody sign of a recession over there! I saw at least 5 different people order a round of drinks costing several thousand pounds. Not kidding. They would order like 10 bottles of champagne and a couple of magnums too - possibly also a bottle of vodka so big that to pour it you have to pick it up and balance it on your shoulder. These guys think nothing of spending 5k in one night. Madness.

I remember back around 1995 - 1996 we were going to tramore for the long weekend & stopped in a mates apt in rathmines where the hotel was newly built at the time (think theres a LIDL & Travelodge there now) anyway we horsed a load of doves out of it all night & went up on to the roof of the hotel/apt complex & had a sunrise rave to Jay Carey's IGNORANCE, flying off the head stood on the 3 foot walled perimter of the roof looking down to the grounds six stories up (i think) it was a certain death anyway if i fell but was a great rush, thinking back about it now though it was fuc.king mental.

Another time myself & the brother in law climbed the sugar loaf mountain & decided to go down the front face just for the craic, he never said he was afraid of heights & it is beyond me why he agreed to go that way, i had to talk him down step by step one foot at a time for over an hour to get him to the bottom as he wouldnt turn to go back up, tore the whole arse out of his track suit & sweat about a 2 litre off his forehead.

Watched Louis C.K. - 'Hilarious' at the weekend, would highly recommend. Hadn't seen anything of his before, will be checking out his 'Chewed Up' one next:

He never sign the condolence book for the people's broadcaster.

It's weird I thought that nobody from any of those oldskool places ever developed any addictions after their times there because they were all so loved up.

Snow plough, that's not slang for a cocaine addict is it?

Just booked this as compensation for studying for my finals.

Finally get to see Kalkbrenner!

http://www.circusclub.co.uk/

Tickets are cheap enough...flights are sadly costing 70 euro. Anyone ever been to the Masque in Liverpool?

old gregg

^ would have loved to skip over for this as I've yet to catch Kalkbrenner and it's far more acceptable than his wanky €40 a ticket event in Berlin for next June.

Sadly though all my funds are tied up in a Jan trip back to Berlin for more field recording stuff.

I didn't sign the book of condolences. It was in the reception area in RTE radio and I was doing an interview for pulse that day, so me and Djamel had to make our way through crowds of mourners telling us they were so sorry for our loss.
