The girl piano/keyboard player in this "Crash Test Dummies" vid.

What happened to them? That lead singer guy, what a voice, what a writer, I thought he'd be a mega-star, but they just seemed to disappear after one absolutely terrific album.

But that keyboard player.....

There is Abi Harding who plays the saxophone in the Zutons, too. Most famous for the original (and in my opinion better) version of the song Valerie, which Amy Crackhouse covered.

Here's Gorgeous Gwen, in her "No Doubt" days. They could have been huge if they'd stayed together & Gwen not gone off & made all those daft solo Vids with Chinese girls. I was torn for a few years between Gwen, & Jemima Khan. I've promised to let them know once I've decided.

No Doubt are in the process of making a new album.

Is the new button working a bit better now?

[gatso]

new button just worked for me. first time in 2 days so whatever you've done=good

Bland track but great Video Direction = Class End Product.

For all his faults, he made brilliant Music Vids, maybe, collectively, the best collection ever.

Who needs to see the artiste when you have a graphics mixer this good?

Treat yourself to 4m 35sec of graphics at their very best.

As great a band as they are, even Meg White wouldn't say she's the greatest drummer in the world.

Best female drummer (from an admittedly small field) is Maureen Tucker from the Velvet Underground.

[boldie]

lol at all of you...there is only one greatest female drummer;



Prince didn't mess about..he always had top class artists and Sheila E was proper good.

Where do the days go? Time is just whizzing by. I've just realised I go to Vegas in about 10 days time, & I've got a meet in London tomorrow, & 5 Shows to do in the next 9 days. No idea how I'm gonna get everything sorted. Ah well, what will be will be.

So, Dublin APAT.

Here's The Fitzwilliam Card Club. (Sorry the pic is blurry, the building moved). It might look like a Church, that's because it used to be.

It's open 24/7, but they don't serve Alcohol.

There are, in effect, three Cardrooms there & APAT used all three initially, until the Tables reduced.

We had quite splendid Buffets on both days, & it was one of the best atmo's we've ever had at an APAT.
