if i had a coin

Nothing has really happened lately to be honest. My main news is that I finally found a job, which is amazing considering I've been looking all summer. It's a bar job at a local hotel/restaurant, so I'll be dealing with weddings and proms and the like. I imagine I'll be doing some waitressing too, but at the moment it's just bar work. Very excited about this, mainly about the money, since I owe my friend about 100 quid from borrowing a tenner here and twenty there.

BUT, the main thing I'm excited about these days is Leeds Festival. It's in twelve days and it's the best weekend of the year. The comedy stage was just announced the other day to reveal Simon Amstell and Ed Byrne, among a fair few more comedians who I'm sure are amazing. I doubt I'll have time to see them though, considering the music lineup is too perfect for my own good. Been making up for this by watching a disgusting amount of late night Paramount Comedy, it's showing loads of shows from the Fringe festival, Just For Laughs and Comedy Blue. Old stand up from Noel Fielding and very rude material from Ed Byrne. Yes please.

Anyway, that's seriously all I have to say.
When I get the photos from Claire, I'll put up photos from my nice day out on Tuesday. Just a few pubs, lunch & a night out with some of my closest friends.
Until then, stuff I like...

Jared Leto's band, you've probably heard of them. Maybe. I didn't get into them until recently, because what I'd heard I wasn't a huge fan of, but I kept watching the videos for his face, and I was like, 'wow, they're good.'
On their MySpace, on the left hand side, watch the video for From Yesterday. It's the full video, with acting clips in it. Brilliant.

Two of my favourite players play each other. Except I won't get to see it. Great.

Amazing reggae band. Saw them last year supporting Capdown and seeing them again on Tuesday, can't wait.
