Went to the drive-in movie last night (The Shinning) which was a pretty good experience – The Commitments this evening. Will be in the Duke of York tonight for '30 years of Belfast Punk', and looking forward to meeting SammyG. Opps, forgot Sinn Fein, IRA, sectarian, Fenians only, yawn...

Would love to be there but I'm stuck in Swanea at the minute. You'll see me on the big screen, in Shell Shock Rock, I'm near the stage in the Pound when SLF are playing and a couple of rows back for the Undertones (if it's the full uncut version).

Just back from the Gangsters followed by Lee (Scratch) Perry. Cool night, started off with a bit of Ska and then a bit of old style Reggae. Strong smell of ganga about the place... ;)

Will give an update on the Duke of York tomorrow.
