Speaking of new releases...
Congratulations to our very own Alex Bond and his partner Rebecca
on the birth of their daughter Millie last week (mother and
daughter healthy and at home now).
Woo hoo! Thank goodness it wasn't a boy - can you imagine unleashing
another Alex Bond Jr. on us :)
3 cheers Alex! Cigars all around ... (chocolates ones please, can't
stomach the smell of tobacco versions personally)
BTW, this gives me the opportunity to finally say ...
We all know the phrase "Techno brings people together" as being
that annual adjunct to the festival ...
But it's a lot more than that, it's an Ideal for Living too.
And on that note, I want to thank all the brilliant (313) Brits
I hooked up with on my trip through Manchester and Barcelona
last month.
Robin Pinning, Bond ... Alex Bond, and Francis ThatAmazingWooffThing
took time out of their lives on a worknight to spend nearly 5
hours showing me around central Manchester. I can't thank them
enough for taking the time out, I had a wonderful time in a place
that's pretty much hallowed ground to me. Top blokes, the lot of you!
And similarly, my thanks to everyone who helped make my stay in
Barca during Sonar week such a fun time - I'll forget people I'm
sure but thanks to Juanjo Ramirez (Our Man in Barca) and Angel
Molina; Robert "Ginger Man" Taylor, Toby Frith, Nicole Slavin,
Matt 11th Hour Chester and his wife, Patrick and everyone else
(see, told you I'd forget people's names - please don't be offended,
my Indian name was Memory Like Sieve) I met both in the pubs and
on the beach at the M_Nus party.
BTW - best t-shirt I saw the whole week:
F&*k Berlin
Barcelona has a beach
And, last but not least - I finally met Tosh!!! :)
(I need some of those backstage camera phone shots you took, dude)
- Greg
