Apparently it's going to be a star-studded night with his famous chums in attendance and I've never seen him live and OMFG I am soooo excited I could fly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Phew! I think I need to lie down...... :swoon:

It's difficult to describe - he sort of throws every genre of music into a pot (apart from rap/hip-hop and R & B!) and hey presto! He's a very poetic, autobiographical lyricist and he often includes an orchestra or two (no, really!) in each song. There's a song of his called Vibrate which actually elevates the mobile phone to something quite ethereal!!!

@lol@ Does any of this give you some idea?

Yay! Hugh Laurie picked up his OBE from the Queen today! Just hoping for some pics now. I was going to watch the news but missed it on BBC so maybe Channel 4 will report it! :D

Well I've just met Michael Aspal, not quite on JRT's level I know. We've got the antique's roadshow at the theatre today you can't move . Totally bored no-one is buying tickets and living in fear the x may come in with his antique samuri sword collection. In which case I'm under the counter

didn't know where to post this but last week my neighbour gave me their 32" tv and a dvd player, having finally got 10 min spare I tried it out and discovered the dvd is multi-regional so have just started watching Keen Eddie on a big screen not just my laptop. So just want to say I love my old neighbours :D

I've seen half of it...I was watching it online but the links broke about halfway through! :(
Spose that's what I get for being naughty, lol. Is it just me or has it actually gone completely insane though? Don't tell me what happens!

Daughter saw it last night and described it to me as 'very long, fabulous but totally confusing', so I'm not sure if you'll be any the wiser after watching the rest of it, FQ. :?

I really enjoyed POTC3 - I seen it yesterday - although i've gotta honestly say I've never really been one for Orlando Bloom (he's a bit of a drip at times..) and although Johnny Depp is undeniably cute he's not my type - haha! Am I mentally deficit? Oh well. Heh!
I know! It's a wand. It's a magical, magical wand.
