Driven to virtual drink

Came home Friday night a little depressed after another week of job unsatisfaction. Luckily I bought Wario Ware: Smooth Moves for Wii to cheer me up. It's completely manic with only seconds to do mini-games in various poses of the remote. The humour was good but could have been even more twisted and would have liked to do the mini-games a bit longer than 5 seconds given. Also, there's no interaction between players which lets it down. The funniest boss/end game was to dance in formation. Someone must have put themselves up for YouTube on that and they have! Other than that we finally caught up with James and Emma in NZ by webcam. It wasn't just the time difference that was completely opposite so were states of mind. Poor Emma was about to go to work and we had a few too many.

The rest of the weekend was home based and trying to record as much vinyl to mp3 as well as DIY stuff. By the end of year I want most of it sold really.

Sunday TV highlight was the world championship darts from Lakeside which gripped us for 30 minutes. What a great final! However their WAG equivalents needed a good workout in the looks department.

The Mighty Boosh new live show review

Image
Thanks to my Modwolves fan club connections I managed to win exclusive tickets to see the brand new live show from the Mighty Boosh on Saturday. After our (unsuccessful) Thames boat ride we made our way over to 3 Mills TV studios in Bromley on Bow. If you don't want to know what's in the new live show then you'd best not read this as it will spoil the surprise. However if you want to know a summary of how it went then I'll say now, the performance was slightly worrying with only a week to go. There's a lot more mini-sketches and no real story compared to the previous tour. There's some great gags, some surprises but if it wasn't for their natural talent and personality the show would be slightly disappointing. Hopefully they'll put in some practice, improve the sketches that didn't quite work and maybe even come up with some new ideas. So, if you really don't want to know what happens in the show stop reading now, you have been warned. Mighty Boo...
