Dream Theater & other thoughts....

Greetings World's !!

Just a very quick post today... I'm too blooming knackered to write very much, sorry about that !! But - a big "Hello" to all of you, from Canada, South Korea & all around the World !! I still find it kind of cool, to see all of you guys are logging in, like you do - it's a pretty good feeling, to know you are out there !!

As for here - well, I'm on my own, for a while at least. B has just gone into town, to some kind of new gym class. I'm not sure, exactly when it started, but this is the first time B has gone to it..... As for the rest of the family.

ME is doing a late shift & won't be home for a while.... so, I'll probably be in bed & asleep, by the time she comes thru' the door !! She is still well happy, about getting their first house & stuff..... I'm really proud of my kids !! Not just ME - but, our Son as well, J.... who, as long time readers will know, is over in Wales, doing his Uni
course !! He could of taken the "easy" route & done the course, at our local college..... but, he went for the second option & the hardest one - by moving over to Wales and doing the whole Uni thing there !! He decided to move away.... hating my guts, probably helped in making that decision, but..... it was his choice !! As I say - no matter what any of my 3 kids think of me - I'm proud of them all !!

Onto music....

I've been playing lots of stuff, that will eventually land up on my newest project....... see yesterday's post, to find out what I'm going on about !!

Anyhoo - at the moment, I'm listening to the "bonus" disc, from Transatlantic's 'Whirlwind' album, that came out in 2009 - heck, I didn't know it was that old !! Nevermind.... the tracks are:

1) Spinning
2) Lenny Johnson
3) For Such A Time
4) Lending A Hand
5) The Return Of The Giant Hogweed
6) A Salty Dog
7) I Need You
8) Soul Sacrifice

I'm sure that you will have spotted, there are a few cover versions on the Cd..... at the moment, I'm playing 'The Return Of The Giant Hogweed' - which came out on Genesis's 'Nursery Cryme' album... way back in mists of time !! Whatever - I've played it, over & over, at the hospital, last Summer - so, it's going to go on the 'project' at some point or another !! It's just a bit of fun really.... gives my mind something to work on !!

I have been playing Dream Theater stuff, for probably most of the day - namely 'A Dramatic Turn Of Events' and the latest studio album, simply called 'Dream Theater'..... I've really enjoyed giving them a good going thru' - lots of fun !! After this Cd finishes, it'll be the turn of Within Temptation's 'The Unforgiving' - or whatever it's called.... I get a bit mixed up on that one & the things that Nightwish have released !! Oh well....

I don't really want to go into any old albums today... maybe tomorrow or Saturday !! Tho' - having said that, I'm in the blooming hospital again, tomorrow, so I might not have a bundle of time.... bummer !! I'll see how things go..... I'm not expecting much, from the Consultant, but.... time wise, I might be a bit short !!

For now tho' - I must away.. as I said above, just a short post today !! Sorry about that... until next time...

Bye Bye
