Morgan Brothers

Just uploaded two new songs to my website:

The Sad Truth
The Rug Song

These are the first collaborative tunes that my brother and I have recorded together (one of his and one of mine) and they sound pretty cool so why not give them a listen and see what you think!

Today I have been mostly listening to "Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk" by Jeff Buckley

Me and My Girl Photos

Have just uploaded loads of photos from November's show Me and My Girl. There are quite a few more to follow when I get a chance! Shall make sure I post on here again when I do.

This week I have been mostly listening to "Grace" by Jeff Buckley, "Surfer Rosa" by Pixies, "The Man Who Sold the World" by David Bowie, "Band of Gypsies" by Hendrix, "Jailbreak" by Thin Lizzy, "Welcome to Sky Valley" by Kyuss, "Effloresce" by Oceansize, "White Light/White Heat" by Velvet Underground and "Rockin' the Suburbs" by Ben Folds.

Another fairly uneventful week. This weekend has been spent doing some chilling out and listening to a lot of music basically, either down the pub or in my room!

Apparently the next production by the Llanelli Musical Players in May is going to be a review performance featuring songs from various different shows, presumably with some sort of script running through it. Should be interesting as apparently there will be something for everybody in the group to do!

Attached to this blog entry there should be a picture from Me and My Girl. More pictures will be uploaded to my homepage before long! www.dkmorgan.co.uk

I have set up my own page at www.MySpace.com which can be accessed by clicking on the heading of this blog entry or by clicking here.

This week I have mostly been listening to "Echoes" the best of Pink Floyd, "The Velvet Underground & Nico" by the Velvet Underground, "Close to the Edge" by Yes, "One Way Ticket To Hell... And Back" by The Darkness and "Camel" by Camel.

Modelo and other assorted alcoholic beverages

Not much to report this week. Has been fairly busy at work but uneventful on the whole.

Have purchased some superb new albums... "Aqualung" by Jethro Tull (who I am off to see in March) and "Camel" by Camel, a superb and often unheard of guitar-driven proggresive rock band. Both albums have been repeatedly played over and over again since I bought them. Amazing! Would highly recommend both!

Had my first proper night out in town in ages last night. Safe to say I am not feeling 100% today! HAHA! Still, its gotta be done. Had a great time. I will most definitely be enjoying the new late opening hours in town now anyway!

This week I have been mostly listening to "Camel" by Camel, "Welcome to the North" by The Music, "Out of Exile" by Audioslave, "The southern Harmony and Musical Companion" by the Black Crowes, "Aqualung" by Jethro Tull, "Unknown Pleasures" by Joy Division, "Brighten the Corners" by Pavement, "Halcyon Daze" (Best of) Procol Harum, "Surfer Rosa" and "Come on Pilgrim" by Pixies and "Hatful of Hollow" by the Smiths.

Lark's Toungues

Thanks to everybody who came along to see My & My Girl in Theatre Elli this week. Every night was a success... can't wait til the next one now!

Hopefully I will be able to acquire some photos from somewhere from Me & My Girl so will get them onto my site as soon as I do.

This week I have been mostly listening to "White Light/White Heat" by the Velvet Underground, "Tommy" by The Who", "The Grateful Dead [1971]" by The Grateful Dead, "Blonde on Blonde" by bob Dylan, "7 Worlds Collide" by Neil Finn, "Water and Solutions" by Far and the albums "Red" and "Lark's Toungues in Aspic" by King Crimson.

He's been roasting peanuts out in Timbuctoo...

With less than a week to go until the opening night of "Me and My Girl" it may come as no surprise to you that rehearsals have just been dominating most of my spare time lately..... but I am loving it! It's gonna be so great. Tickets are now on sale from Theatre Elli or you can buy them off me if you like!

This week I have been mostly listening to "Give 'Em Enough Rope" by The Clash, "Reload" by Metallica, "Amorica" by The Black Crowes, "The Village Green Preservation Society" by The Kinks, "Roger the Engineer" by The Yardbirds, The Best of Dire Straits "Sultans of Swing", The Best of Ocean Colour Scene "Songs for the Front Row", "Agents of Fortune" by The Blue Öyster Cult, "Houses of the Holy" by Led Zeppelin, "Grace" by Jeff Buckley, The Undertones singles collection "True Confessions", "Exile on Main Street" and "Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus" by The Rolling Stones, "The Man Who Sold the World" by David Bowie, "MACHINA: The Machines of God" by Smashing Pumpkins and "More Songs About Buildings and Food" by Talking Heads..........

...... Yes I have been listening to a lot of music lately! Two main reasons. One is the rehearsing! And the other is because I've had no dosh to go out properly after buying my new computer! Haha! Still, both have been worth it!

Oh something else cool that happened this week is that I e-mailed the comedian Richard Herring (off Fist of Fun, This Morning with Richard Not Judy etc) to say how funny those shows still are today and I got a reply saying thanks!! HAHA! How cool is that!?


See you soon folks!

A gentle start to the week

After a pretty crappy week last week (Thursday I got locked out til 1am and things just got worse as the week progressed...!) this week has got off to a pleasant start. Monday was chilled out in work. Tuesday/Wednesday I was away on a training course (which generally involves meeting new people and having a laugh really!) and now today I have the day off work to just chill out.

Drama rehearsals are getting really cool - I think everybody is starting to feel the buzz now that it feels a bit more real. Posters are up around town, the cast have started acting out scenes without the use of scripts (I still need it for one or two bits!! arrg!) and the whole thing seems to be coming together a bit more. Very exciting stuff! The schedule for rehearsals has, as predicted, become a bit more intense now and its up to everybody to pull their weight. I'm just giving it my all now!

This week I have mostly been listening to 'Blur' by Blur, 'Counterparts' & '2112' by Rush, 'Employment' by the Kaiser Chiefs, 'A-sides' by Soundgarden, 'Hergest Ridge' by Mike Oldfield, 'Remasters' by Led Zeppelin, 'One by One' by foo Fighters and 'Operation: Mindcrime' by Queensryche.

You can drink your weak lemon drink now, or you can save it until later

Has been a fairly normal sort of week. Still can't believe how lucky I was to have witnessed the genius that is Roy Harper at work. The working week has been OK, no major problems to report.

Have been watching a 90s comedy programme 'Fist of Fun' that I downloaded off a friend. I remember seeing it on TV but I probably didn't get half the jokes back then. Absolutely bloody hilarious. Wander what Lee & Herring are up to these days anyway? Anybody know? Not seen them on TV in years.

This week I have been mostly listening to "Stormcock" by Roy Harper, "Rage Against the Machine" by RATM and a random assortment of mp3s on my computer. My new PC has such a big hard drive (250GB woohoo!) that I can potentialy store more music than I will ever be able to listen to in my lifetime!

Welcome!

Welcome to my new blog! I hope you like it!
I was getting bored with the old MSN one so I have now moved here! This one is way cooler as you can see, and it fits in nicely with the design of my own website. Stay tuned for more updates, random gibberish and much more!
