I am a rock god!
Over on Twitter, I had been told that I would be able to devour lots of brains if I went to Cardiff. So I went along with [info]feorag and C, and did see signs on establishments saying they sold brains (what is it with that apostrophe?) and machines for chilling and serving brains for those who do not like the taste of proper brains. You can imagine My disappointment when the Brains (bitter) arrived.

After recruiting a 19-year-old minion, I did go along to the Ultravox concert with [info]feorag, C, P, P2, and R. I have not been to such an event before, but I used My influence (the Welsh think I am some sort of dragon) and so [info]feorag ended up being moved to a much better seat than the one indicated on the ticket she'd bought. The seat next to her was vacant, at least until I sat in it anyway!

I do not recall having ever recruited Ultravox to My cause, but it was evident that I had done so in the dim and distant past. There were interestingly blasphemous rhythms, and whenever Midge Ure got his guitar out, or Billy Currie was allowed to go wild on his keyboards, it was obvious that they had been possessed by Me at some point. I obviously did this some time ago, as the solo at the end of this video demonstrates:



The bass had the unnecessary complexity you get when I get to work on someone's sanity! It was an altogether fascinating experience. I was impressed by the way Midge Ure, a mere human, could get so many others to stand up on his command, and people did respond by shouting, and cheering, and clapping (mostly in time) and singing. Impressive for a non-deity.

I will be in London at the same time as they play the Roundhouse, but have been told it is a standing gig which will not suit Me as well. I hear some minions are organising drinks in My honour, to which I look forward as long as none of them make jokes about Brain's beer!

You should have persuaded your minions to take you on a photo-opportunity to that railway bridge heading up out of town along North Road towards Gabalfa flyover, where there's a sign with "It's BRAINS you want!" painted on. Possibly the greatest advert of its type in the country now that "Welcome to Oldham - Home Of The Tubular Bandage" is no more.
