Xin chào to the lone Vietnamese reader out there. 

It's not always easy to come up with blogging topics. No leaf war to report on. An uneventful walk home, if I ignore the annoying piper and the man in the trilby singing My Way. I have a plan though. Fish. Fish is allegedly brain food. I'm gonna have some kippers in the hope they get the brain working. There is a disagreement raging round my head as to whether the fish = brain food thing is just a myth though. There's also a train of thought just developed that seems to think even if fish is brain food it probably doesn't apply to kippers. Maybe it's the smoking thing. Smoking = bad therefore the smoking process will destroy the intellectual benefits of the fish. Do fish have an intellectual capacity of their own or do they have to become cannibals? It's also just occurred to me that as much as I like kippers I dislike the lingering smell. My sense of smell is poor but I'm sure Cherry Blossom will notice. Chicken sandwich it is.

As I've mentioned before my sense of smell, like my knees and eyebrows, just doesn't work. The inadequate eyebrows caused much confusion yesterday. I was in the gym overlooking the market place car park. There's a sign post that I swear says 'Disabled parking apples only to the marked baps. There are 22 marked baps.' I can only presume that the sweat in my eyes and the general knackeredness lead me to read it wrong. I kinda hope not though. I'm all for disabled apples having their own parking baps.

The chicken sandwich hasn't worked. This is a definite waffle. Unlike an indefinite waffle. Never did learn how to conjugate waffles. Or scotch pancakes. Which very loosely brings me back to the piper. Why do we have a bloke in a skirt subjecting us to the awful droning of the pipes? I honestly think the bagpipes are the most annoying instrument ever. I'd rather see someone playing a kazoo. I can think of only one acceptable spot of piping and that's in Biffy Clyro's Stingin' Belle. I'm open to suggestions of other quality bagpiping. 

Anyway, I really fancy a waffle now. Going shopping.

Many thanks to The 48ks, Section 60, Ian McNabb, Famous Villains and New Killer Shoes on my iPod and Beyonce on the plasma screen for getting me through today's gym session.

I was there.

How many times you heard that? Normally punctuated with the word man. We all like to have been there for a little bit of history but we have to trust the people who say 'I was there, man' as there's seldom any proof. Sadly, as we know, people lie. The Beatles famously played Doncaster Gaumont in 1963 and it would seem that about 80,000 people turned up. I worked with a guy who swears he was there. He's 5 years older than me. He'd have been less than a year old. Hmmmmm. Likewise it would seem that The Pistols played to thousands at The Outlook back in '76.

Half the problem with 'I was there' moments is you don't know it is an 'I was there moment' til years later. I saw The Inspiral Carpets at The Hacienda many moons back supported by a band called Rain. I didn't really pay much attention to them. It was only years later I found out Rain was a fledgling only one Gallagher Oasis. OK I can say I was there but then have to admit to not watching them.

It's a bit different with sporting events i.e. you know you've just witnessed a bit of history, e.g. the 1966 World Cup Final. You didn't have to cling to your ticket in the hope that in 15 years time people would realise how momentous and historic the occasion was. I have a sporting near miss in the I was there thing.

Cricket. Botham's Ashes - 1981. The historic third test at Headingley when England won against all odds. In actual fact the odds on the Saturday evening were 500-1 on an England victory. I was there. On the Saturday when England's batting line up was humiliated by the Aussie bowlers. The only bright spot a beligerant half century from one I.T.Botham. I was back at school on the Monday when Botham and Dilley tore into the Australian line up and again stuck in Mrs. Lindley's geography class on the Tuesday as Bob Willis ripped cricket history to shreds. So yes I was there but not to witness anything particularly historic. That final day's play is another one for people to lie about though. A crowd of about 4000 that it would now seem was actually 40,000.

Live Aid came up with a way to stop the fake I was there thing. T-shirts only available on the day from Wembley with 'I was there' on them. Only downside was they didn't print enough so if you couldn't get one on the day you could send a copy of your ticket off to get one. Defeated the object somewhat.

My basic point to all of this is that the Bang Bang Romeo/Dexters gig at The Leadmill  last Saturday felt like it may well have been an 'I was there' moment. Only history can say though. In the spirit of this though I had a quick chat with Bang Bang Romeo after the gig and here's what they had to say:

SS: So Leadmill debut. How was it?

BBR:  Bloody Brilliant. We loved every minute of it, and it was a pleasure to headline on our debut show. Everyone at the Leadmill were so professional, it was great to work with them.

SS: What's it like getting that kind of reaction 'away from home'?

BBR: As an unsigned band, leaving your home town to gig somewhere you've never played before, and pack the place out was incredible! The support has been great, everyone's behind us and we can't thank them enough. The audience made our night.

SS: Did the quality of Dexters' set put added pressure on you?

BBR: Dexters are one hell of a band aren't they? There's absolutely no wonder they are on the road to success. They're stage presence is immense, and they definitely put the pressure on, but good pressure! Was great to gig with such a brilliant band, and we hope our paths cross again.

SS: What next for Bang Bang Romeo?

BBR: Next, we plan on taking this all the way. Being involved with 'This Feeling' is spot on for us and we'll hopefully continue to work with them, they create a great platform for bands like us! BBC6 Presenter Tom Robinson is interested in us and is a fan of our track 'Bones'. We're still working with big writers and producers, and are organising a 2013 summer of gigs and festivals. Right now the sky's the limit and we can't wait to see what happens.

I think that'll do for now.

The Bulgars and Egyptians have joined the club. Can feel the phrase worldwide phenomenon coming on, and no Mark, I still can't say it.

You know have words you just can't say? Phenomenon's one of mine. As well as lapels bizarrely.

Anyway.

Clocks.

You're either now thinking Coldplay, Salvador Dali, timepieces or you just misread and thought I was talking about Muse again. Speaking of Muse, Matt Bellamy's said he'll be stage diving on Muse's tour this summer. As far as I'm aware it's all stadium gigs and I don't know many stadiums where the band and crowd are that close. Still if Matt wants to dive into an empty pit in front of 80,000 people I for one think he should be allowed. No doubt he'll record the bone crunching splat and use it on Muse's next album. I once read that Meat Loaf stage dived at a gig in Sydney and the crowd, somewhat sensibly, got out of his way.

For all the gigs I've been too I've not seen many stage dives. The guy from Enter Shikari dived into the crowd at Leeds Fest but sadly they let him back on stage to finish the set. I once saw Courtney Love stage dive at The Leadmill then bemoaned the fact that she remained fully clothed and ungroped afterwards.  Obviously no mirrors in the Leadmill dressing room. Speaking of naked I saw Iggy Pop at Rock City strip and stage dive. Yes, I've had a naked Jimmy Osterberg flying at me as I stood shocked and open mouthed. That last sentence was a bit of a mouthful. The most laid back, stage dive, literally, I've witnessed was Peter Gabriel who just stood on the edge of the stage, back to the crowd, arms outstretched and fell back. He was then very politely passed round the crowd for about 5 minutes. He smelt of tofu.

Got a bit sidetracked there. Was gonna talk about time keeping and the lack of clocks in Donny. I leave the house at about 6am. Gives me plenty of time to get to Sine FM Towers and set up for the show. Sometimes, normally after a night out, I'll be running late though and occasionally when this happens I'll selflessly let Cherry Blossom sleep and yomp into town. To be honest, very occasionally. But not one shop down Balby Road has a clock in view from the street. I have no idea how late I'm running. Get to The Leopard but can never quite get a view of the station clock. The first clock I see is on Trafford Way which tells a different time every time I see it. It is ALWAYS wrong, normally by a good few hours. The only accurate thing you can say about this clock is that whatever time it is showing it can be guaranteed that is not the correct time. So the first reliable clock I see is clock corner by which time I'm that close to Sine that it makes no difference.

Wear a watch I hear you say. I packed in wearing a watch many, many years ago. I used to claim it gave me more freedom and didn't tie me down, man. Truth be told I just preferred wearing scarves round my wrist and was always late. Of course these days with mobile phones there's no real need for clocks or a watch but what with the flusk and my bag and the general coldness at that time of day I never get my phone out of my pocket. Plus it never occurs to me!

Anyway, must dash. I've just seen the time.

The AVIT Blues Band, Cask Corner. Friday 22/02/13

'EVERYBODY NEEDS A SHOT OF R 'n' B'

A wise man said that. And I should clarify R 'n' B is old school rhythm and blues. Not the dirge flying around the charts that has somehow stolen the R 'n' B moniker.

It's staggering how many people pull a face when you mention the blues but Led Zep, The Doors, Gary Moore, The Rolling Stones even The Pistols: they all played The Blues.

The night kicks off with James Taplin. James is blessed with so much talent it's probably illegal in certain American states. If he was born 100 years ago he'd be at a crossroads in a some southern delta watching the devil walk away in defeat. A set of mostly covers but from Kiss to Rory Gallagher but he makes it his own. One original song tonight, Mighty Fine, and if he bangs out an album worth of material like that then Donny has yet another musical shining light to get behind.

From indie to punk to folk to rock and all genres in between Donny has some major talent out there which brings us to Doncaster own Kings of The Blues - The AVIT Blues Band.

Their debut album is called Where Blues Meets Rock. It's perfect both as an album and as an album title. All Bluesmen have their own take and AVIT rock. Two sets totalling 23 songs leave the crowd and the band a smiling, happy, sweaty mess. AVIT are tight. Seriously tight. Four musicians of obvious talent who have that unique telepathy that only great musicians have. When Matt wants to throw in one of his breath taking guitar solos the band just know how to play around his intricate licks perfectly. Dave has the style and voice made for the blues, backed by a the rhythm section of Clive and Nath who circle and soar everywhere but never miss a beat.

The set consists of original material and covers but not the obvious blues covers, and same as James before, they own it.

The album is a snip of a bargain and is a must have but it's live that AVIT truly come into their own. They're playing at Donny's inaugural Blues Fest at the Dome next weekend supporting no less than members of Wishbone Ash. AVIT will steal the show, trust me on this.

If you want to dance, sing, smile sweat, generally rock out or just listen to quality blues/rock then you know what to do.

The latest and shortest of blogs today. Been that kinda day.

For ages I've been wondering what the big screen on the side of the Frenchgate Centre is for. All it seemed to show was Westlife or Boyzone gigs, thankfully with the sound down. Why not advertise Frenchgate stores on it I thought.

They do now.

Today it was advertising the lingerie department of one of the larger shops. Never seen so many blokes walk into lampposts. Actually I didn't see that many. I couldn't see a thing after walking into a lamppost.

Oh while we're throwing woeful boy bands into the mix David Cameron is doing a video with One Direction! All of them in the same room at the same time!! Too good an opportunity to miss surely. I'm not advocating assassination but someone at least lose the key!

Off to Scarborough after tomorrow's show to see my Step-Dad who's not too well. Won't have time to blog so gonna attempt a 'live' blog while I'm on air. Hmmmmmmm.

Gotta go. My basted chicken's ready. Only just learnt how to pronounce that.

Welcome Pakistan to the BAIBS fold my friends.

Does anyone want my blood? Odd request I know but as regular followers will know I've been trying to give blood pretty much since I started blogging. About 4 months now. Ish. And again I've failed again to donate my armful. Got to the old Danum School to be told the session had been cancelled. Got home to an email to say it had been moved to the racecourse. I'm not going out again.

I was all set too. Had a session at the gym first so my blood was all oxygenated and ready to fly out my arm. Ho hum. What with the gym and fruitless detour for blood donor session I've worked out I've walked, run, cycled and rowed about 11 miles today. I'm too old for that.

I'll be honest, the geek in me had to sit down with a map and a calculator and work that out.

Beautiful day today though. My favourite kind. Crisp blue sky, sun beating down but still a slight chill in the air. Sadly what with all the excess walking, woollen jumper and porn star coat I did sweat a bit. Not as much as in the gym but enough to confirm my fears from the gym. My eyebrows don't work.

I could be wrong but I'm sure I was once told that the purpose of eyebrows, apart from to signify shock, was to keep sweat out of your eyes. I'm gonna have to check I'm right now before I send them back.

Two minutes.

A-ha!!! I knew it. Copied from the HowStuffWorks site:

We know that eyebrows help keep moisture out of our eyes when we sweat or walk around in the rain. The arch shape diverts the rain or sweat around to the sides of our face, keeping our eyes relatively dry. The most obvious advantage of this is that it lets us see clearly when we're sweating a lot or out in the rain. Without eyebrows, getting around in these conditions is a little more difficult. The shape of your brow itself diverts a certain amount of moisture, but eyebrows make a significant difference in your ability to see. Diverting the sweat away is also good because the salt in sweat irritates the eyes, making them sting a little.

In which case my eyebrows don't work. Stick them on the list with my knees and sense of smell (no bad thing) of things that need sending back.

The porn star coat maybe no more. I've learnt my lesson about carrying the mug/flask of coffee around in my pocket. It must have a name. It looks like a mug. Slightly bigger. And works like a flask. You know the kinda thing. I'm gonna call it a flusk I think.

OK, so I know not to carry my flusk full of coffee in my pocket. I get spillage, a wet phone and a coffee flavoured pocket. Today, just as I was swapping bag carrying hands, I put the flusk briefly in my pocket but knocked the top off and covered porn star coat in coffee. I've just had to wash it. I'm not sure it'll survive.

Rovers drew away at Crawley last night, enough to put us joint top, though 2nd on I think alphabeticalness behind Bournemouth. (Same points and goal difference. Must be the alphabet). We're destined to never top League 1.

You were right Stevie Dee. Waffle.
