Charity Show This Friday & Music Video…

Hey everyone,

Hope you’re all well. This is the 4th day on the trot that I haven’t left the house. The reason for this?

Yep, that’ll keep you off your feet for a while!

I’m spending my days filling out ISRC codes for the new album (very boring) and watching reruns of Only fools and horses.

On Friday morning I go back into hospital where they make the final decision whether or not to operate. I’m hoping not for two reasons.

1. It’ll bloody hurt having my bone marrow drilled out and an titanium rod put down the middle of my Tibia.

2. I have a gig on Friday night.

Now normally I wouldn’t be so eager to be sat playing a guitar in a wheel chair while my heavily plastered leg is elevated, and exposed in a room full of drunk people. But this is for charity.

In May my big sister is climbing Ben Nevis in Scotland, for alzheimers charities. I figure, if she can climb the highest mountain in Britain, I can play some songs while off my tits on a cocktail of Tramadol, and German lager.

The show is at The Wight Rock Bar in Ryde, Isle of Wight. Doors open at 8pm and entry is only £2. All the cash goes towards my sisters charity fund. So please be a good sport and come along!

I’ll (touch wood) be playing about 8:30 with Tim Pritchard. Then This Way Up and Bear Attack Club will be finishing off the evening.

3 bands for £2? Fucking bargain!

The music video for ‘Remember Who You Are’ is nearly completed. I have seen a sneak peak and it looks awesome. It should be ready by the end of next week.

I can’t wait to get it out there and let you all have a watch. I hope you’ll enjoy it!!!

Right, I have some whiskey. It’s a treat. xxx

 

 

 

Music Video, Charity Gig & Apparently, I’m Gay…

Hello all!

Hope you’re all good and stuff. It’s Valentines Day so I hope you got some nice gifts. Chocolates, flowers, condoms, whatever floats your boat. I didn’t get a card this year. But then why would I? According to this gentleman, I don’t even know my own sexuality.

Gareth Icke is gay.

This guy has dedicated an entire webpage, and VIDEO to the fact that I am gay. That’s some serious dedication I must admit. His proof is pretty overwhelming. Please check out the video for yourself.

His name is Chris Constantine and according to the BBC, he has ‘serious mental health issues’.

BBC News.

That was an interesting watch for me yesterday I must admit!

Anyway, back down to planet Earth.

I have completed the music video for ‘Remember who you are’. It’s now being put together and special affects added. I can’t wait for you to see it.

I won’t give too much away but in the space of 3 hours I blew out a girlfriend, got hit by a car, ran through a graveyard, and attended my own funeral. Just another normal day in North London.

As soon as it’s completed, the link will be spread far and wide. Much like my legs are as I’m enjoying another mans company.

Do you reckon Mr Constantine has a secret fantasy about me? Maybe.

On March the 9th I’m playing my last show on the Isle of Wight for quite some time. At the end of March I’m moving back up to Derby and won’t be around the South coast any more.

The show on the 9th is at The Wight Rock Bar in Ryde. It’s to raise money for my Sisters charity climb of Ben Nevis.

Bear Attack Club, This Way Up and myself will be performing. All for a mere £2. Doors open at 8pm. Get your arse there! 🙂

I shouldn’t really be talking about arses. I’ll give you all ideas.

Music Video.

Oi!

I am off up to the smokey metropolis we call London on the 9th of Feb, to start work on a music video for ‘Remember Who You Are’, The song was written to go alongside the release of my Dads book, of the same name.

The video will be shown on a massive screen behind me and my band when we play at Wembley Arena in October. Yes, you did read that correctly, Wembley Arena.

The idea for the video is wicked. It’s really thought provoking and interesting. I do hope you’ll like it!

I’ll get it up here as soon as I can. x

G and Tippers Show theme, Welsh gigs & dogs in labour…

Hello all,

WE’RE ALL ALIVE!!! So much for the rapture. Bollocks.

I am currently sat on a sofa huddled up between my mate Rich and my radio sidekick, Tippers. Everyone is feeling slightly fragile after an entire day and nights drinking and kebab feasting.

Last night was our close mate Taffys birthday. In the old days the Welsh wizard used to look after us on tour and pretty much play the role of Dad. There are a few funny stories in the book that feature Taffy!

Taffy, Rich, Tippers & Me...

Me and Tim got drunk, played some songs, forgot some words and ended up reverting to smutty on stage gags rather than actually performing. Sod it, if the audience are smiling, you’re winning.

Tippers and me 'performing'...

Talking of winning, there is a dog in the room that has just gone into labour. How awesome is that!? I think we’re about to witness the giving of life. That’s pretty magical.

It’s almost as exciting as having a Chameleon dropped on to your head. Things like that only happen in Wales. I am an animal lover but I was terrified!

Terrified with a Chameleon on my head...

Totally off subject I know, but come on Blackpool! I’d love them to stay up. It would really be a giant fuck you to the money orientated Premier League. Football really has gone to the dog (boom boom) in that respect. Always cheering for the underdogs (boom boom). I guess that’s why I’m a Derby fan eh?

This weeks G & Tippers Show has a song writing theme. Me and Tim are going to write a song live on air with lyrics tweeted in by the audience. God knows how it’s going to sound but I guess that’s half the craic!

You can tweet lyrics in to www.twitter.com/gandtippers or email us at gandtippers@vectisradio.com.

The show goes out live at www.vectisradio.com every Thursday at 7pm BST.

I’ve also added a couple more videos to the Media section. They’re from last years Liberty Tour. Check them out. If you want.

I hope you all had a wicked weekend. Be safe. xxx
