Air Guitar

Well, Swiss James has already mentioned this but we’ve both got these new fangled Air Guitars by Takara Tomy. They’re proper fancy, all these nice buttons and inbuilt tunes to play along to (including Are you gonna be my girl” by Jet, Walk This Way, Smoke on the Water, Let it Be and a load of Japanese tunes). You’ll get the essence of how they work from Swiss James’s video but I think it’s basically got a little man inside that presses a button every time you strum the imaginery guitar.

Anyway, Swiss was round on Friday night and we got it wired up through my sound system (in between the B52s and the tumblers of rum).

The pyjamas were a gift I’ll have you know but Swiss James kept insisting that I wear them, weirdo. I have it on good account that they’re extremely fashionable so I don’t want to hear any nonsense from Stropgirl when she reads this!

Oh, by the way, whatever you do, don’t mention the price though, I picked mine up in
Taiwan at a fraction of the cost Swiss james paid for his, he’s very sensitive
about it!

    American? Where did you get that?

    When was the last time you heard an American say/write things like, “proper fancy” or “was round on Friday night” ??

    Kristi – It’s not just Friday night. Craig is round every day of the week.

    Craig boyo – Stoke is close enough to Wales if you ask me.

    I’m so glad that you edited out the bit where your winkie popped out of the PJs.

    What are the odds of a night out in our Jimmy Jams then?

    Swiss, actually H was about to go back to qipu lu to exchange my pj’s for a larger size, shall I ask her to pick up a nice set for you? How’s Friday night? Niai, are you in?

    I couldn’t tell which part of the music you were playing, it just looked like a dude in funny pajamas air guitaring like crazy to a boppy version of that JET song.

    In summary: Absolutely Awesome!

    WoAi- it’s not too cold for those PJs- fleeced up they are!

    Anyway dingle- in summary you get a solid B- from the audience. In future please remember the corner stone of a good video

    * Speak to camera
    * Include turtles
    * Have an awesome ginger moustache

    When is WoAi going to wow the blogging world with his Cockney Barrow boy impression, that’s what I want to know.

    Oh they’re hot alright, I’m wearing them right now, there’s no heating on but I’ve still got them unbuttoned to the waist.

    Try to remain calm ladies please!

    James – Barrow boys? You must be confusing me with someone who was born in East London rather than (affluent) West London. And the only thing that’s fleeced is whoever paid money for them!

    So you’re going to exchange the pair of pjs that your “winkie” has popped out of and you’re now sitting around in? This is why you must always wash before wearing.

    Hey, Dingle, you can get a pair of Warriors right here, take a look at http://feiyue-shoes.blogspot.com/2008/09/visit-to-legendary-feiyue-585-store.html

    Thanks Steward, I was there today actually but they only have the old design warriors, not the new ones. I’ll get round to blogging about it sometime over the weekend (I picked up a pair today and promptly ruined them in the rain, but anyway)

    Yes! Great.

    The caption should be “What not to wear for a blog photo!” At least the PJ looks warm. But it might create more static for the door handle!
