Furious all the way!


Finally! - What a weather. 7th of May 15:10 Leicester Square is packed with people, thinking i'm too late to get any nice spot. Thankfully half of the crowd gather to admire the cars. And man....what sort of cars!




and more....

 

 After few snaps I'm going to find a nice spot. I found myself in a third row right in the front of the press.
At 17:00 entertainment is on. People has to sing (rap) a song about F&F to win the price (F&F DVD collection), t-shirt or tickets to cinema.


17:30 we are on and live strimming across the globe, half an hour later guests starts to arrive

I wasn't prepared with each picture with each actor so i have to skip some of them.

My first (and last for this event autograph) was from Jordana Brewster only because i moved from my spot to one on the right site. What happen is the first row of the people on my spot where some fatty blokes who pushed the crowd back, just to get there autographs (they even try to scare others around them) - twats !

 Anyhoo i manage to get some pics, at the end of the day have to admit - one of the best premier in London

Love the moment when Vin moved the safety fence and run in to the crowd - Hi fives and autographs - security guards didn't even known   how to react !:)

Where Maiden was born


                 



         It took me awhile but finally I made it. Here I'm , standing in the front of place Called "Cart & Horses " also known as a " Birthplace of Iron Maiden", thinking - this is it!. So I'm going inside and.....ehh...I'm quite disappointed . Huge place with a pool table on the centre. On the left side - small stage with final frontier billboard , in the front bar with spirits and cool iron maiden scarf , on the right 2 sofas with TV screen above (playing MTV 2 quietly). The main spot is front left corner - sofa with pictures , posters, vinyl's , t- shirts on the wall- nice one but...where is spirit of rock?.Place was almost empty. I couldn't find even one signed photo- most of them were printed long time ago (with poor quality ) but all attached to the wall by 4 big screws ?! . On the top of that bartender told me there's no draft dark ale.

Overall - simple pub with few rock touches but do not expect too Much . Go there if you are huge fan or your in the neighbourhood. other wise you might be disappointed (at least during the week days). Lets hope that owner will shake up a bit, refurbish displays on the walls, supply the bar with draft "Trooper" (coming in next two weeks) and then proper advert.  This is the birthplace of Iron Maiden for f@@k's sake !

Private b/day party with Chris Slade (AC/DC)

    Coincident ? I don't know but.. Imagine you are planning a birthday party and looking for a place, searching the Internet and...advert popping out on Facebook "The Chris Slade Timeline" live at Half-moonPutney". I thought - that might be awesome!
1th of April  - We arrived at 18:20 (show starts at 20:00) and I have to say me and my friends where nicely surprised with the Place. Cool bar design with plenty of signed pictures hanged on the wall, separate dining area and separate venue. Good customer service and reasonable prices at the bar.
Surprisingly only 60- 70 people shows up , so it was looks like they were my "private band" for my birthday :D.
Show started with "Are you Ready" followed by "Blinded by the light"
"Riff Raff" and Chris drum solo.  Few Songs later there was only Ac/Dc :D . "Thunderstruck "."Hells Bells", "Big gun", "Back in black" . I end up on the stage during the encore, singing along with the crowd "You shook me all night long" and "Highwayto hell"!!Overall, great fun and satisfaction - we were all pleased with the show. And the next day...?Huge hangover , sore throat and painful neck - but so worth it!
Rock & Roll

Mighty DeLorean - "Great Scott! "


It was like a dream come true - I had to wait 16 years to see this car.
Next to the Royal Garden Hotel - there he was, displayed outside.
This was the 25th  Anniversary Time Machine as used by Universal Studio.
Car had everything - car plate with "out a time", JVC Camera,  hoverboard,  Sports Almanac, digital timer, flux capacitor. AMAZING!

A Good Day To Die Hard London Premier


You may think its February, wet and cold. What kind of idiot can go to see this premier?well....me;)
Mainly because of my passion to this tittle. So me and my mate went there approx 15.20 thinking of saving some nice spot, close to red carpet to be able to see the legend himself and maybe to get some autograph.
Unfortunately on that time Leicester Square was already packed with people :/ - they were there from 7:00am! But thanks to our home made DIE HARD t-shirts security guard let us in to the "vip" area for the people who where there from early morning time. So after 3 and half hour stars become to arrive. We manage too see and get the autographs from the director John Moore and Jay Courtney. Approx 18.30pm Bruce shows up and...he stood two meters from us, staring, waving but ...no autograph...:/.Too bad because that was a big chance and so close to obtain the second autograph , to my  "bad ass" collection - right after Arnold Schwarzenegger. What's left is the memory and this video
