If you like music..

My dear friend Tommy Bowen the session keyboardist for White Lies (coolest job in the world if you ask me) has started a blog.

Last year not only did the band tour the world, they supported Coldplay AND Kings of Leon, had a number one album and played Letterman for all you American peeps out there... not bad eh?

This Summer apart from doing a countless European festivals, they're also supporting MUSE, yes Twilighters Muse.

So if you like musical blogs and behind the scenes action pop over to his lovely little blog, go go go!

Right I'm off to pack and preen myself for Isle of Wight fest, have a wicked weekendboys and girls.

Wise Words...

Last night as I crawled into bed next to my already fast asleep boyfriend around 2am I channel surfed and happened across the end of an interview with Stephen Hawking. Not my usual sort of feature to watch on TV but I needed something to send me off to sleep and this was perfect.

As I tried to get comfortable, tossing and turning in the the heat, Spence lying on his back feet in the air snoring away, the interview concluded with 3 pieces of advice Hawking has given his children;

"One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it," he said. "Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away."

Okay, Okay universe! I get it, giving up work was not the smartest idea I've had...but I appreciate you getting Stephen Hawking to tell it to me straight....meh.
