Does anyone know if there is any money in old records (from 50/60/70's) and the best place to sell them other than just sticking them on ebay?

oh yeah! and I was not the only one to leave so early!

difficult to describe their mediocrity actually!
sadly, you could not really tell they were professional performers, a part from the fact they were wearing their silly outfits!!!

the sound is usually good in Hyde Park; in their case you had to check the big screens to make sure someone was trying to sing as you could barely hear their voices!
no mention of the almost "no atmosphere" in the public as they obviously failed to connect with the crowd!!!

(and Fergie looked drunk/stoned, what could explain her lack of coordination and vocal capacity?!! or maybe she is just tone deaf :mrgreen: )
have to admit they did start off really badly but we were stuck at the front so couldnt leave :wall: but once will.i.am done his dj set which was a complete mix they were alot better.
highlight of the night for me was example( who i never really liked before) and of course the lovely bruno mars :T how good was he singing dirty diana

unfortunately I got to see BEP only as I was volunteering all day! but 1 of my friend who was around as well, told me the same as you!
I heard D Guetta and Plan B rocked the place as well!

Tonight was Chemical Brothers and I was sitting in the Grandstand area :mrgreen: (thanks lovely live nation peeps); I am not a fan but they definitely got the crowd jumping and dancing straight away :)

I have discovered lately that I am going through some changes ... that sounds much more ominous that it actually is... anyway. I have run out of all of my rug-ness.

As in I don't seem to take shit from people any more. I will not be walked on/over anymore. In fact I've never had a fight in my life but I almost did tonight when this girl was hurting me and insisted she wasn't. i have never spoken to anyone in such a firm and angry menacing tone before. How DARE she tell me she's not hurting me when she bloody well was.

I really am just sick of people thinking they can treat me however the like because I'm too nice to say anything.

NOT ANY MORE.

I actually got so pissed off with my cousin's bf that i deleted him off my facebook page because i don't like him anymore and find him an arrogant self important prick who likes to pick on people. NO. not having it.

yeah... so don't mess with me. I'm not longer in the mood.

:)

it's just you know when you see people sticking up for themselves or you know at least speaking up for themselves and think... i wish i could do that? that was me today! yay

i've just had enough. i don't want to be a nasty person, never, and i hate bad manners but if i think someone is being rude or taking advantage i don't think i'm going to sit back and take it anymore.
