Now that Torres and Gerrard are fit and Liverpool have started playing as we always knew they could, I decided that I should put up the Nike Torres advert
Always makes me laugh

Comic Relief in the UK raises a huge amount of money for charity every year and always creates some great comic moments.
I did not see all the sketches this year as I was not in the UK but of those I have seen Smithy’s sketch is the winner.
The French and Saunders version of Mamma Mia is also well worth a look.
I was setting up some new video sites the other day and started watching some of my favourite old clips and came across this one which was done for Comic Relief a few years ago.
Keep an eye out for The Edge from U2 at the end.
This advert was produced for the UK market and shown predominantly during the intervals in soccer matches. As a large number of Pubs in the UK show live Soccer this ad is perfectly targeted to its audience,
I haven’t had a chance to see Blah Blah since the Grand Prix as I have been away or busy whenever they have been in town. So when Al called me earlier this week to say they were back at La Rascasse for Thursday Friday and Saturday I cleared my diary.
The two Alans and YoYo came to the flat for a drink before the gig on Thursday and we all went down together and I agreed to take some more video. Although it was not one of the busiest Blah Blah nights they went down well as usual and we ended up back at mine for a debrief until about 6 am!
I am still sorting the videos but this one captures some of the Blah Blah magic.
I will be posting more videos of Blah Blah all week so bookmark the page if you are fans, friends or just interested and leave comments if you are so inclined.
Hope you get more sleep than I will this weekend; finished with the Blahs at about 5 this morning and am squeezing this post in between the Football, Rugby, a Karting launch party and of course the Blahs last night at the Rascasse where I believe some other old friends Julian Lennon, Gregory Darling and Jamaican Dave are threatening an appearance.
Fortunately Sunday is a day of rest!
If you don’t know Gregory Darling’s music check his websites:

Towards the end of July I was having a drink with Lisa and Scotty and we got onto the subject of Hed Kandi and the Rascasse. Anyway one thing led to another and I managed to pursuade Scotty to offer the warm up DJ spot on Friday 3rd to Rob Rutters son, Simon who I knew was arriving from England that week.
I had heard Simon DJ at Black Diamond during the Grand Prix but it was a complete leap of faith (or heineken) on the part of Scotty which I am sure he does not regret, but thanks all the same mate.
I asked Rob on the Monday if Simon would be interested and Rob checked with Simon to be left with “Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God!!!!!” as a reaction; Simon was well aware of Hed Kandi and the opportunity he was being offered.
Anyway my job done I introduced the parties and duly turned up on Friday night expecting vats of free drink. I can assure you I was not disappointed.
Simon started the night downstairs around 22.30 and got a good vibe for the early set, he then had the difficult task of moving to an empty first floor at around 1.00AM. He coped admirably and soon had the upstairs dancefloor full of bodies before handing over to Miles Nation of Hed Kandi to take us through till around 4.30AM.
Of course as Simon had been working he was not tired and we decided to finish the night in Legends with the other insomniacs and party animals of the town. I got home around 7.OOam and slept most of Saturday. Still it was a good night and I think everyone got something from it so a rare win-win situation.
To cap it all off for Simon, later in the week Rob booked Miles Nation to DJ for Simon’s birthday party back in England in October – now that’s what Dad’s are for……
For those of you who could not make it or can’t remember it here is a short video of the best bits!
For the first time ever during the 2007 Monaco Grand Prix a special stage was built on the roof of the Rascasse. Blah Blah played all weekend and on the Thursday I was with them and took some photos.
