...this is now 10 days ago .... August 8th 2009 important to me, as my calendar said :" you must not forget the interview at 6pm London time "
with "DJ Dirty Diamond".....hahaha ....what a name !!!!
This is what I get by travelling 30 minutes Underground...London's Movie Premier Cinema...the one with the red carpets and Stars falling....lol !!
Leicester Square - London !
just a tiny turn and you get that !!!
-----Economic Travel Adventure----- !!!
are you asking yourself ?..where is the Budgie ???
he is down there turning with me, watching the same !...
...as always, I'm much later, than my plan....on my way to the Dean Party Venue at Albany Theatre. I had to "google map" this place first....had to use the DLR, which is a driverless London "light" Railway...it is very very light, especially, when a driver is missing....hahaha !!!!.....in Fact it is a tourist attraction and I felt like "one"....because this part of London looks very" spacey and New Yorky ".
What a "Dump", I thought to myself on my way to the Theatre---Depford---- oh noooooo....!!!
...one more long street, the begining of "Depford Market" and a woman screams her head off , drops the jewellery and runs ...the security guy is happy with this , picks up the "fake rubbish" and says : " yeah, i know, it's always the same person doing it " !!!
...just in case you Americans think--.....yes, we do have police here !!!....but they never get involved....hahaha
...nearly there and a shout " Barbara !!!!!!!!!!!!! ".....ahhhhhh the Dean UK Team...yes, Mick, the one from the Dean Story !
Hey Elliott !!!....how are you......hahaha....he is asking me the same !!!..the Dean Boss is standing there on stage with his Bass, ready for Soundcheck !!
"Is this your Budgie" ??????.........( in the Bubble Bag)..he gets his camera out and of course he makes pictures of the famous "Dean Bird"....lol!!!
Then I go backstage and a big "Hello" to Vinnie Moore, Carmine Appice, Michael Angelo Batio...the former Rod Steward Band was around, quite a big production.
-------------------------------------------

p.s. tip : let the video load in "pause" first and then watch in one go !!!
I did not... and it's a pain ....hahaha.....ahhhhh...it hurt !!!
...now it's 5pm, I'm still backstage and oh my god....I hope I am not going to be stuck in a tunnel, the interview at 6pm and I have to bring my budgie home and come back again....pohhhhh....
.....hahaha....whenever in trouble with time , I'm not allowed to look at my watch....hahaha....it works, not getting a nervous break down....
