Geri Halliwell Rant
This article from 3am The Daily Mirror begs belief! Is this what journalism is all about? Looks like it has been written by some screwed up teenager. Poor Geri was she that bad to warrant this…
Because when we politely suggest you consider going away, we are ofcourseinfact DEMANDING you shit off.
And certainly away from anything ever we might consider watching.
Our fears that Geri may still deem herself relevant in any capacity were well-founded – the banter was excruciating and reading between the lines of today’s newspaper reports, the former Spice twonk was totes irritating, being booed by the X Factor crowd in Glasgow at one point.
Making Your Band For Hire
Making your band for hire is an excellent way to earn to begin with some useful pocket money or even a full time living depending on how popular you become with your clients. It is also great for bands that become bored or stale from just rehearsing all the time.
So how do you go about getting those gigs? Like any business or organisation you need to promote yourself. The internet is quite good at helping you achieve this. Start by using the search engines and type something into the search box like, ‘band for hire’ and see what this yields.
It’s also a good idea to consider what sort of places are looking for a band for hire. Weddings are popular, and so are clubs, but think about birthday parties, school dances and even corporate events.
Most bands that are for hire normally have their own website or myspace (or similar) account so that people can see what sort of band you are and listen to any music you may have put up.
However, many people looking to hire a band aren’t likely to spend hours on the web. They want something quicker, so think about putting up fliers, and making sample CDs or DVDs with your music to show off what you and your band can do. Don’t forget to include contact information so they can get in touch with you.
Have you also considered using an agent? They do take a percentage of your earning but it may be worth it if they bring your band in gigs.
When becoming a band for hire, you have to consider whether you are a local band only, or will you go to other cities and states? Being able to travel can give you more opportunities, and more money.
And, speaking of the money, you have to consider which gigs will pay the most, and which will pay the least. A local club might give you the least amount of money for your time, but will also give you more exposure while a high paying wedding will be filled with people more interested in the party than your songs.
A good band for hire will always seriously consider traveling further afield, particularly when the money offered is good. It’s makes more sense to play to a bigger venue than in a small pub, not only for the better money, but to get your music heard by more people and to get your band known.

David Beckham’s Recovery Behind Schedule
When David Beckham suffered a torn Achilles’ tendon in a Italian league game in mid-March, doctors gave him an outside chance of returning in time for the World Cup or at the very least part of the MLS season. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like either of these favorable scenarios will transpire. In a recent statement Beckham broke the news that his recovery is behind schedule and he won’t be able to resume playing soccer until November at the earliest.
This timetable does leave open the possibility that he could return to action should the Los Angeles Galaxy make the MLS playoffs. As far as a potential return to England’s national team the first realistic opportunity for Beckham to play would be in a European Championship qualifier against Wales in March 2011. He’s been assured that he’s welcome back at AC Milan in Italy’s Serie A league whenever he’s back in playing shape.
Beckham explained his recovery process:
“I won’t be running for another three months, so I will be playing again in, probably, November.”
“My mentality is to kind of push it and get moving and running and soon as possible. But it’s an injury that has to take time to heal. It’s frustrating. It’s obviously disappointing because I’ve been working for the last two years to get into the English squad [for the World Cup].”
“At the moment, it’s just getting the motion back into the ankle, the tendon, because it’s still repairing. I’m trying to get mobilization back into the ankle.”
Beckham also discussed the injury itself:
“It was like being hit by a hockey puck. I thought someone was behind me and kicked me. Obviously no one was there and I saw my foot hanging and then I felt down there and there was a hole.”
The former England captain would have likely served in a reserve capacity with the World Cup squad. Even without Beckham in the lineup and with lingering injury issues plaguing Manchester United superstar Wayne Rooney soccer betting enthusiasts are bullish on England’s prospects this summer. The ‘Three Lions’ are currently the third favorite in World Cup future betting behind Brazil and Spain.
