With everybody’s favourite San Fransisco metal band, Metallica, about to release their new album “Death Magnetic”, the band played Reading last Saturday and the BBC are showing 5 tracks today only via the digital interactive platform. Great versions of “For Whom The Bell Tolls” and “Ride The Lightning” are available by “pressing the red button” on your digi-box, but you still have to trawl through the boredom of “Enter Sandman” – yawn!! The good news is that they’re touring the UK in February/March next year with both Newcastle and Glasgow on the list – Rockk On! They play Oakland on December 20th if Mr Simon wants another look at them!
With my case all packed, then unpacked, checked and repacked, it’s not long till I head over to Northern Ireland. The flight leaves at 8:00pm tonight so I should be at Belfast’s George Best City Airport by 8:50pm – providing everything’s running to time. Come back on the 6th September and should be back home by about 8:00pm. Hopefully everything will go okay – no jokes about passports at this point please! A few things are planned when I get over there so let’s hope the weather’s good. I’ll not be checking my e-mails bit I will have my mobie in case you need to get in touch with me.
Happy Friday and I’ll speak to yous all in a week or so!
