The Comic

I just finished my new column for the Irvine Herald. It's great having an extra avenue to get your thoughts out there where people will read them. I love doing the blog, it seems like so long ago since I started it and the amount of views it has had is unbelievable.

I can't believe it's only 24 days until the big Jiezuberband/Preacher show at the o2 abc1. Tickets have sold so quickly and it's going to be an absolutely amazing night. There are still a few tickets left, so head over to www.uucmanagement.com or www.jiezuberband.com to get yours if you haven't got them already.

Another bit of exciting news is that this morning I got the front cover for the Jiezuberband Comic. Finally those six nutters are going to be immortalized in comic form. It will be a downloadable comic to start with, but who knows where it will lead. The plan is to have the first edition released on the 26th of April.

Wrestlemania is a mere 4 days away and I can't wait. Tomorrow I jump on a plane and bugger off to New York/New Jersey and then on Sunday I get to be in attendance at the "Granddaddy of them all" Undertaker/Punk is the one that I'm really looking forward to. I have a feeling that Rock/Cena is going to be the last match and to be honest, if it is I doubt I'll stay in the stadium long enough to watch it.

"Lost"

You know, it's not often a great TV show passes me by. For some reason however I never watched "Lost" when it was first aired. When it started being shown over here I was staying in Switzerland, so I missed the first season, after that I just never got the chance to sit down and watch it. Of course Facebook was always covered in status updates about what was happening and that threw me off a bit. I thought why would I watch a TV show about Polar Bears, Hatches and people being all dead. I shouldn't have listened to people (a lesson I always learn and then forget) because it's so much more than that. Also, why people have this belief that they were all dead for the whole show is beyond me, they're really not. Everything that happens on the Island was real.

I just finished watching all 6 Seasons in a marathon effort to watch them, it was a case of the old "one more episode then bed.......oh shit it's 8am" and I have to say I'm obsessed now. I'm a massive Doctor Who fan and I don't think anything will ever take over as my favourite show, but "Lost" has come so close.

I loved everything about it, the relationships, the sci-fi element the flas-hbacks, the flash-forwards and the flash-sideways. I loved when Desmond showed up and it was a complete mind fuck after we knew he had met Jack before. Every element about this show was absolutely outstanding.

Some people talk about the Finale and they say that they're disappointed or upset with it, I don't understand why. Sure a lot of things were left unanswered but surely that's a good thing. The problem with Finale's is that they never live up to expectation. We build them up in our heads so much that when they are shown, we're never happy. The "Lost" finale, in my opinion, was one of the best, if not the best finale ever.

I don't know what I'm supposed to start watching next, "Lost" was a show that I hadn't gotten around to watching and then this year I decided to catch up on everything I missed. I watched "Continuum" "FlashForward" "Alcatraz" and a load of other shows but "Lost" was one that I put off until I knew I could sit and enjoy it and by hell I enjoyed it. I was only 9 years behind everyone else in watching it, but you know what? I don't care, it was worth the wait. Even though I thought I knew what it was all about, I was so wrong. If we take "Doctor Who" out of the equation I think it's safe to say that this was the best TV show ever made.

I'm now going to back and watch it all again.
