Random Ramblings Round-up...

Since everybody is waiting for festivids to go up I thought it's the perfect time to post all the snippits that I meant to post and never did - because of the vids, and the tired, and the time, and the STUFF. So, here, in no particular order

* When life is weireder just as weired as TV

Every so often I watch a show and think to myself - "This is totally ridiculous, this time the writers have really overstreched my ability to hand-wave and accept silly premises, go along with impossible story-lines and leave my brain at the door.

I've been working late that last couple of weeks and therefore caught 'Cabin Pressure' on the way home. It's one of the comedies I really enjoy on BBC4. But everytime I get confused - I think Cumberbatch is doing Martin, but then Martin speaks AND I DO NOT RECOGNIZE his voice. It's not that it's not his voice, it just doesn't sound enough like him to recognize it. It's weired.

* Gigs

Sometime in May last year I went into town to do some shopping. I got myself a Starbucks Coffee and just outside was a busker who was pretty good, so I just sat down for a while to listen. He was pretty good, and it turned out he was advertising his gig later that night. What a cool idea, I thought, and since I like supporting indie artists I went along.

He is currently touring the UK again, and I went to a gig at the Academy on Thurday, and he's just such a joy to watch. Not everybody with a good voice is a good entertainer, but his gigs are always fun and engaging...

Curious who I'm talking about?
