Justin Hawkins at XMusic

Hiya all

Justin Hawkins of "The Darkness" fame will be popping out to us with his new band "Hot Leg" next Sat 28th Feb for a couple of hours, to demo some gear, sign autographs and maybe more.

Should be good crack. They'll be here from 12-2pm.

Cheers

Mick

I just saw on the website it says "sponsored by Cornford amplification"! :eek:

Does that mean you're gonna be selling Cornfords now? Do you have a Harlequin?

Maybe more?

Like 'looking for someone who likes long walks on the beach for companionship and maybe more'?

"Hi Justin, you remember how you had it all and you ****ed it all away, could you just explain what the thought process was there?"

Maybe.

We'll see how this goes as he's using their amps now.
See what the interest is like.

We can get them if you want one.

As far as i know the lad had a cocaine problem and left the band so he could get away from the temptations when on the road with all the lads.

Pretty valid reason imo.

That doesn't explain the Eurovision. When Black Sabbath were ****ed on coke they made Vol4 and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Eurovision?

Yea he may have made better music on the coke, but im sure the guy would rather not be a coke addict!!

Eurovision song was PANTS!

Doctor J

Being off coke doesn't mean you have to suck balls, you know?

Heh, this Homer quote popped into my head when I read the the first post;

Homer: You're right, Marge. Just like the time I could have met Mr. T at the mall. The entire day, I kept saying, 'I'll go a little later, I'll go a little later...' And when I got there, they told me he just left. And when I asked the mall guy if he'll ever come back again, he said he didn't know. Well, I'm never going to let something like that happen again!

Don't do a Homer folks :pac:.

Go down the m50, take a right off the exit after tallaght northbound, avoid the spaghetti junction! Congratz btw!

-=al=-

i go through clondalkin and come out around the Ibis hotel area, i know theres one bit that goes on the motorway and one that goes past the redcow, and the lanes merge into 1 and its confusing as hell, im sure it isnt, but i know ill end up on the wrong one

Zangetsu

Ah sure getting lost and ending up in inchicore is half the fun :P

Try getting off the M50 at the Ballymount exit, that's the way I go. Avoid the Red Cow altogether.

Then follow this....

We are adding those as I speak, if people let us know what they want, we will do our best to match thomann on price and send them a paypal invoice and they would probably have it within 2 to 6 working days.
Plus our delivery is only €6

Fail...



Kids these days ey? :P
