Badger Watch


Walking from De Broukere towards Boeurs after part two of my weekend filmfest, I noticed two large mean looking dudes baring in on a wee slip of a lass a bit further down the street. Thinking that something was amiss I watched proceedings to see what developed. It soon became apparent that the girl in question wasn't happy with the two hemming her in to stop her progress. A quick look around showed that for once there wasn't a cop in site, so I continued to watch with the thought that if things deteriorated I might have to go Clive Owen on their ass. Fortunately she eventually managed to barge past the two potential miscreants vanished in the direction of Gare De Nord.

With their badgering of the lady, I think like Mr Owen I can state that I'm not afraid of badgers. Unlike this estimible actor however, I think I'll wrap up the weekends blogging with a nice cup of tea and a biscuit.

Well done on the Chivalry George

However were you referring to Clive Owen as Dwight McCarthy ala Sin City or the limp Owen from Duplicity?

Dwight McCarthy would have them on their toes

Seriously though well done for keeping an eye out for that lady

Life On Mars Soundtrack

Am I mad, in a coma, or have I just been listening to the Life On Mars Original Soundtrack CD. Most excellent. Not surprising really as the picking ground for material, the 70's, has been identified as the best decade for popular music. My only criticism of it is the lack of any Hawkwind , not that I'm biased, especially as the show has featured Brainstorm , Silver Machine , Urban Guerrilla , Ejection and You Shouldn't Do That over its two seasons. Still there's always the potential for a second soundtrack album at some stage in the future and plenty of material still to chose from.

The 100 Best and Absolute Greatest Heavy Metal Albums in the World, Ever.

As I've just about completed my collection of 100 CDs culled from Jacelyn Bond's damn fine book, and bastard of a charade title, The 100 Best and Absolute Greatest Heavy Metal Albums in the World, Ever , I thought it was about time I blogged the list to aid anyone else who wants to make their world a little heavier. Collecting the albums has been a long strange trip through the annals of rock history and taken me through classics by the likes of Sabbath, AC/DC and Deep Purple to Scandinavian Death Metal. Yes the choices are debateable but the book is a great way of discovering some wonderful music to headbang like a maniac to. It's got some notable omisions too, in particular a certain Black Country band who most would argue are the greatest rock and roll band of all timel and who cast a giant blimp shaped shaddow over the genre. In addition to the 100 albums I've also listed the other albums by the bands concerned that the book says are worth getting, so if any of
