Whoopsie!

May 30th, 2009

I love how after pretty much every blog I write I have to apologise for a mistake of some sort…

You are all right, D’addario do only make strings. The guitar is a Dean, and it gets more and more beautiful by the minute.

I got up twice in the night to just come and look at it. I also dreamed about playing it in smokey clubs…I was REALLY good!

I think this is what has been missing all my life. For some people it is a man, for others a baby, but for me it is my black and white guitar. Whether I can play it or not doesnt matter. She is mine, and we are in love.

My guitar and me….

May 29th, 2009

I have been wanting to learn an instrument for ages. Ideally it would be a piano but I have nowhere to put one at the moment, so until I stop being a traveling hobo, the guitar it is!

I got a black and white D’Addario and it is so cute. I wanted a pink one but when I got to Denmark Street there were so many I thought it was too obvious. This was much more origional, and actually much more me. I love it so much I even kissed it. No tongues, but it was pretty passionate!

So, I am having my first lesson on Tuesday and I literally can’t wait. I am also going away this weekend to hang out with some friends and my sister in Bristol. We are going to chill by the river all day then I am hoping for a sleepover where everyone gets drunk and plays tunes. I might not be able to play it yet, but I wanna see someone else have a go and I am more than happy to sing along.

Anyway, I am about as musical as a penis so wish me luck. I will get some pics up soon and also post a video as soon as I have learned a tune.

Feel free to suggest tunes for me to play and also any hints and tips that might make this easy, and not just a fad that lasts two weeks and is soon replaced with smoking from the sheer stress of it…

I have been trying to work out what to call it. My Irish friend Phil helped me choose it so I was wondering if I should call it Phil, but I think it is definitely a girl. And she is too pretty to be a Phil…no offense Phil….

Maybe Louise after my best friend? She is kind of why I bought it because guitars remind me of her. Or maybe I should just be totally origional, as she really is. The guitar I mean, not Louise…although she is too…anyway….

But I wont settle yet, suggestions welcome.

I am excited. I need more music in my life!

Whoops!

I mean, spelling mistakes are inevitable when you write blogs as quickly as I do…but Sarah ‘Cocks’ was just outrageous!

Sorry Sarah COX…really sorry!

Dear Lord! x

The Moonwalk

May 17th, 2009

So as most of you will know last night I took my documentary crew down to Hyde Park and we filmed the The Breast Cancer Moonwalk as part of my new show – The Booby Trap, for Sky One. Here is the press release so you can race up to speed with that…http://www.skypressoffice.co.uk/SkyOne/News/showarticle.asp?id=2717

I have been excited about the Moonwalk for ages. If you don’t know then it is a HUGE walk that starts at midnight and raises money and awareness for Breast Cancer. It is in its 12th year and 17, 000 people take part. Last year they raised around 6 million and this year I am sure they will beat that. Read the rest of this entry »
