And then there's the chorus to Billy's Bones, sometimes I stroll along trying to sing it as rapid-fire as Shane does:

Hey Billy son, where are you now don't you know that we need you now with a ratatat and the old kow tow where are Billy's bones resting now....

In and Out is definitely second only to Streams in the catchiness stakes in my opinion. :D :D :D

I am finding myself drinking more and more of these lovelly little pick me ups, do you think it might be a dangerous adiction ?



They sell something that tastes about the same and has the same amount of caffeine in some petrol stations round here. The difference is that they sell it in 1 litre bottles and cheaper as the small Red-Bull-cans. I used to buy that stuff before going on longer drives or when I had a lot of work.

The weird thing that I experienced was that you get an extreme rush of energy for some time. But after a few hours I started to feel extremely tired.
I therefore stopped drinking it in large amounts.

Well, it's caffeine so, yes, it's addictive. But so far, I have not found it life-threatening. I know a bit about life-threatening addictions. For what it's worth, I rarely drink coffee or tea anymore.

Mmmm, i think its only dangerous when its mixed with alcahol, red bull and vodka is well dodgey, maybe i'll stick to the tea and cofffee. Thinking about it , i must have seen you play live at least 10 times, and i have allways had a good drink in me, this year i am gonna drive to nottingham and see the gig sober, maybe we could share a red bull after the gig Mr C, it'd be great to meet you again ?
