Last night was a another crazy night, me and my mates Pete, Asa & the Chief from the band mahayana went to swansea to check out 60\'s legend Arthur Lee and the Love band.
We couldn\'t find the place for ages.

When we found the patti pavilion we hung outside the Love tour bus for a while, who comes out none other than the love guitarist rusty squeezebox we had a few cool pictures taken and had him to sign out tickets.

about half hour later Arthur mutherhubbarding lee drove up to the venue and gave us the piece sign, we helped him carry his suit cases into the tour bus and then went inside to wait for the show to start.

i looked around and realized that me chief, pete and Asa were the best looking boys there and that isn\'t saying much, i couldn\'t believe how many ugly people were there, it was like a star trek convention.

finally Arthur Lee came to the stage and a great roar of many people touched by his music rang through the pavilion.

I havent been into arthur lee for very long so i didn\'t really know what to expect, i was surprised how many songs he played that i knew, when he played my favorite song \"house not a motel\"i went fucking wild!

i took some cool pictures of the band on stage, the drummer looks like my girlfriends dad, (maybe he was there watching me hmmm) and the bassist looks like a cross between this guy i know called doug and a girl i knew called Gemma fish, and rusty kind of reminds me of a black version of my old college lecturer called lougie, i always said to lougie \"lougie, you are way to cool to be a white man\"

After the show we waited outside for arthur but when he finally came out he didn\'t want to know, The very man who promotes love and piece and asked us at the end of the show to do him a favor and love one and other, sold us out and didn\'t want to chat with us or sign any autographs, that\'s what thanks we get for carrying his suit case!!!!

It gets worse, we were driving down the M4 on our way home from swansea and a badger runs into Asa\'s car, we eventually made it to Ponty where we broke down and had Pete\'s mam to pick us up.

i asked Asa what was wrong and he told me that the radiator is fucked the bumper is hanging off and the fan has split, so that\'s pretty fucked up like.

Any way it was another crazy night that i wont forget about

piece and love ricky
