  1. he out dogging until that time. So us normaltons dont catch him in his suspenders
  2. my wife used to manage that theatre The apollo victoria ? Did you ever get to go back stage for a squatch at all the dancers haha
  3. America has got some very very amazing singers. There was a young girl a few years back who was about 8 or something and she was unbelievable.
  4. when we were looking at craigs brides there was an extra connection after fitting the new harnesses for the air bag light.
  5. The problem with these sort of programmes is that britains real talent usually dont go on them. My mate jonathan said he would never do a show like it as he'd feel that it was the lowest point of his career as a musician. My best pal is in wicked in the west end along with a host of my other friends. These professionals are the cream of the talent in britain and will never be on these shows. All these shows are designed for is entertainment. For people to laugh at people who are really really shite and every now and again someone comes along who is pretty good. From the first show of bgt ,through, it was very easy to pick who would be in the final. The piano player may have deserved to be in the final but he never stepped upto the game. He made an arse of what could have been a fantastic life changing performance.
  6. ive been playing piano since i was around 3 years old. It was one of those things that came naturaly. Its very easy to obtain grades. I know a mate who is now at oxford but wanted it for his application, so he sat grade 5 theory and then learned his compositions for the exam and walked away with a grade 8. He's an awful pianist and cant sight read etc. When i was 13-14 years old i was playing the likes of rachmaninoff prelude in c# minor, chopin fantasie impromptu, loads of gershwin, liszt.. the list goes on. I never chose to go into teaching due to the fact i dont have the patience to watch people struggle as i never done it myself. I dont look like a typical piano player either and when i went to the rsamd i did not fit in one bit. This is my mate jonathan playing, cragus has heard him and he is by far the best pianist ive ever heard. He has just recorded a record not that long ago with john mayer. listen for the piano solo in piano man. This guy was my inspiration, i was up against him in alot of competitions etc and the only person ever beat me. He is fantastic and his abilities are endless.
  7. My gf is Grade 9 piano....and she said he was pretty amazing for someone who is self taught. highest grade is 8, i sat it when i was 13 years old once you do grade 8 you go onto do diplomas for teaching grades. The Diplomas include AMusA, LMusA and FMusA the guy made so many mistakes went off key, out of timing and missing notes that he tried to get. Yep he has fast fingers but that doesnt mean its hard. Some of the hardest songs to play are slow. Its all about timing accuracy and fingering. There are many songs at grade 5 etc that sound amazing and very hard but theyre not really as its only grade 5.
  8. i agree. That guy who played the piano was awful and so was the women kidding on she was playing the keyboards. The scottish guy who is an opera singer is absolutely amazing and so is the young kid who sung(he will have issues when his voice breaks though). I didnt watch it all as i was heading out but those two were my favourites from the start. The rest were merely there to fill the gaps.
  9. Hahahaha I'm getting a tap for the nos so I can run a laughing line into the car for when times are needy Lol Jay I know
  10. Haha not buckfast big man. I think the sambucca went to my head. Made a major mistake of going out without eating dinner. I did have the intention of getting food buy Nicole was 2.5hrs late so we ended up rushing. Then my mate got a knockhack from a club for being too drunk so we ended up home after about 2 hours. The bouncers were brand new and told me to go make sure they grab bites to eat and then there would be no issues letting them in but they didn't want to listen to me. It was a complete waste of time and it all ended up being my fault because I'm the cheeky bastard with a drink in me. Wasso I won be doing much today lol let alone installing that spaghetti of wires. If anybody in Glasgow fancies a Starbucks meet in the afternoon for a coffee that's where you'll find me

Going to start installing it all tomorrow hopefully and get as much done as I can myself. The biggest problem I will have is to mount the two nitrous bottles. Cannot wait to get it under way
