OMG...No WMG!!!

When I signed up for YouTube many light years ago, it took me some time to realise that I could upload any format ending in .WMV. Considering this, I took a bit of time to find out what I wanted to upload. Knowing quite a bit about copyrights etc I set about making 2 video's to upload. Successfully I uploaded both of them and hey presto...I'm still on it today -yippee. Hang on though wait for this? I then set about making a video about the state of Britain using various images posted on the web of housing estates, youths etc. What better music to accompany this that "Welcome To The Jungle". Sorry Mr Neilan, that's a no no as far as were concerned. Having read the reason why, I pulled it sharpish!!! The reason was that, not the images but the music, "Welcome To The Jungle", was owned by non other than Warner Music Group. Okay I thought I will be more careful in future.

There I am one night looking through my folder of exotic cars and thought, "I know, I'll make a tribute to cars past & future. So being a bit of a musician, I compiled my images and put "Cars" by Gary Newman to the backing, along with 2 of my own tracks and uploaded. Well blow me down there I am looking through my e-mails and I saw an e-mail from the boys at You Tube, what now I thought. Sure enough the same problem, copyright infringement on behalf of a Warner Music Group artist. Well hang on a minute here You Tube, I'm 44 years old, keep myself to myself and yet you have all sorts of thrash on your website...gangster's included. There are women scantily clad, lad's pissed up doing things that will almost end up in A&E. Yet here I am keeping the spirit alive of artist's who might be forgotten tomorrow. Come on You Tube, have a bit of sense, what I might be doing is increasing the sales of past artist's such as Gary Newman or Guns 'N' Roses have you thought about that? There is nothing dirty or nasty in what I post on the web, I leave that to the numpties on Facebook. What I post is purely visual art and make no mistake about that.

Lad's...This Is What Brave Looks Like

Now then lad's, next time your on the piss with your mates and you fall over drunk and get rushed to A&E, just think of 24 yr old soldier Sapper Gregg Stevenson. A Taliban bomb claimed both his legs but did that stop him from wanting to get back to the front line. Well according to most comments I've read in a lot of the papers, you've all been very negative. Yes, a lot have said he's brave but when Gregg signed up, he didn't stop to think "oh God, I might get shot or maimed". No, true to his word he, as we put it, "soldiered on". He is in my eye's one of the most truly amazing heroes of our time and if he want's it badly then he should pursue what he know's and loves. He even learned to walk within 2 weeks of having the new artificial limbs fitted, by God that's courage.
I salute you Gregg and it is people like you and our famous army that make me so proud to be British. 24 years old, not selling drugs, hanging around street corners or getting pissed at the weekend and draining the NHS of more money. I wish you every success in the future and may your dreams that you hold come true-you deserve them.

Won't Be Nice To See You Ma'am

His saying was quite catchy "nice to see you...nice". Well that's what the Queen should have been saying had he been elected for a knighthood this year but sadly he didn't make the grade. Here is a guy who gave me and millions of people around Britain a laugh on Saturday night's. His show - The Generation Game, was a simple format of task's to which some people today can't do today like...remembering things!!! So what did those idiots on the New Years Honours committe do "huh", "I know let's give it to Peter Jackson",..."who"? Only because I watch all the 2nd DVD's that are packed with most films, he was the creator of the remake King Kong.
Yes I know, you still don't know him. What about Lord Of The Rings? Ah Yes it's all coming back to you now!!! So how the hell did a fat, bearded Hollywood jackass like him beat Brucie??? Well your guess is as good as mine but let this fact be known - let's see if Jackson can produce a beautiful baby at 65+ and have an army of women desperate to be on his arm. Brucie, you will always be a comedy hero and who cares about knighthoods you are now and always will be a Knight welcome at my table, keep your British sprit up and keep going.
