Groundhog Day

Not a bad album this, even though Jif reckons it's outdated stylistically speaking (or was that "Argus" by Wishbone Ash that you were on about?), but "Garden" is still part of my fave top songs list. They're playing the capital soon and I'm trying to goad Jif into coming along, 'cos I reckon he'll love it.

I spotted the lad's online official MySpace profile and clicked on the 'add friends' link (as you do). Imagine my sheer surprise when a short message appeared in me MySpazz inbox which read:

"Hi Istvanski;

All I can say is.

FUCKING BRILLIANT.

Ken Pustelnik ( Groundhogs drummer )"

Of course, it could all be a wind-up. It could be a comment regarding the ludicrous hat that I wear in the picture, or even my own mother's bedroom skills (which is not something that I want to imagine) as opposed to the songs, but who the hell is gonna deny me my moment of happiness?

Made my day?

Made my fucking year, mate.

UPDATE: It seems that there are two (at the time of going to press) Groundhog MySpace sites. The first one (the one that Mr Ken Pustelnik is operating from) is here. The Tony McPhee derived site is here. I'm MySpace friends with the latter and not the K.P. version. Neither of these two sites are 'friends' with each other. Was K.P. just trying to rustle up some self-interest by being nice for the sake of it and then informing me that McPhee's Groundhogs are not the real McCoy? I've been a cynic for the best part of my life, and it certainly feels that is what the case may be at this moment.

So, it's at this point in time that I would like to plug my new band; The Croydogs.
