Already Free

Every week he travelled East looking for a sign. Held out for some direction at the end of the line.”I’m tire’d of chasing tail. Oh won’t somebody chase mine”. He sighed as he hit the road on more time.

There was something in the routine that was bringing him down. Weren’t just the grind was in his free time he found. “I’ve got all these bloody vices and no females around. He sighed as he hit the road homeward bound.

“The romance” he thought, “of packing it all in. I’ll spare you all the sorry bits and tell you where I’ve been”.

This week he’ll break the mould and grow. Take it in and make it rhyme. He sighed as he hit hit road one more time.

Vermin

I watch them talk. It’s overcast at best. Interrupting words for blasts on a cigarette. They’re of the same bulging build and worn look. He shuffles his stance nervously. In that moment, regardless of any current ties, he lusts for her. He steadies himself and the though is quashed.

[Wed, 3rd Aug, 2011]

It was a strange news day yesterday… I began this with a friend in mind but it escalated so I thought I’d share.

A Pakistani man and Latvian woman were arrested on their wedding day by the immigration office for trying to cheat their way into the country.

David Norris’ Irish presidential race is cut short as word breaks of his affection for a friend who raped a 15 year old boy.. Oh and our trees are dying at an ever increasing rate. Northern Ireland is the only part of Europe to see its tree coverage retreat!

And there’s always a good chuckle when Jim McAllister is around. he took offence to a humorous sign held aloft at the Gay Pride march in Belfast this past saturday. “Jesus had two dads and he turned out alright”. To see him all worked up and serious made my cup of tea taste that much sweeter.

However, with all that comic relief out of the way, I bring you the shocker. I pretty much couldn’t believe my ears when I heard this blasphemy being projected from the box.. bare with me here.

10,000 Presbyterians saved ‘X’ amount of money in the Presbyterian Mutual Society, run by the church and possibly affiliated with the British Government. The scheme went bust about 5/6 years ago and they’ve been trying to figure out how to repay those foolish enough to invest in the first place.

“In his High Court judgement, Mr Justice Deeny held there was a moral obligation on the church to honour its pledge to contribute to the government-established bail-out,

“Only members of the Presbyterian Church could be members of the Presbyterian Mutual Society,” he said.

“It would be paradoxical if the general body of taxpayers funded all of the assistance without any contribution from the church.”"

- BBC News, 10 March 2011

However, if I am to believe what I heard on BBC Newsline, the conclusion they’ve come to is for the British Government to Loan Stormont the money, with a plan for Stormont to pay Britain back using the Tax’s that we kindly pay each year. Now wait, seems ok right? Maybe not.. I’m breaking this down for my own benefit.

10,000 P’s put money into PMS.

PMS goes bust.

Church and Government are in debt to the people.

So instead of the church or government taking responsibility, they slyly confront the Stormont Executive with a ‘loan’ to fix it, and then we (as a whole nation) have to bust our chops to pay back a debt that was raised by a religious cult. One that in no way represents the opinions, beliefs, or indeed character of true human beings in the North of Ireland.

What’s worse is if the current property climate cannot improve by the proposed date we’ll never be able to get out of the red. I guess I’m asking for some clarification if you know any more on the topic. I’ve tried looking for more on yesterdays article but can’t find anything right now.This seems pretty serious.

*I tagged some of you fine people as I wanted to spread the word/shed some light on the matter. I hope you dont mind.**I use the word Britain simply to differentiate between countries. You can deal with your own political hang-ups.

Status Update…

Really, what’s on my mind…? I dont know why bt I’m compelled to give a serious answer..

Hmm, Money (that’s a given, eh?), friends, family, sex. on its own, and sexy sounds and things, wondering why sex came after family, food, candy, the mechanics of things, that kids movie we watched last night and how it was deep, babies; dead ones, and their bones, err politics… politicians and how we continue their self-flaggelating cycles by voting!

..ah but its Sunday, I put it all aside and think only of the supper I am about to pick up from the local takeaway and the serious cup of tea that’ll be had post-haste. You can share the rest of the above drama.

And just when I’ve given Facebook what it wants, it tells me I’ve given too much

More of a personal note…

I’m secretly hoping it may inspire someone to dig out their, now retro, console.

Double mixed weapons 
Obtain two sets of paired weapons that appear next to each other in your weapon list and some ammunition for each gun. (For example, in the Military Archives level, obtain two Dostoveis and two Klobbs). Then, cycle through the weapons until two of the second set of weapons are ready. Now, quickly press the following set of buttons: Hold A button, then before the weapons cycle forward, press Z(2). Release A, then press A once Press Z to fire two or three times while the weapons are cycling.

Armed scientists 
Shoot a scientist in the foot or hand twice with a silenced PP7 in any level that they appear on any difficulty level. Then, the scientist will fire back with Dostovel and may even throw a grenade.

Rifle butt (paint brush) weapon 
Begin a game in multi-player mode on a level that contains sniper rifles. Then, collect a sniper rifle before getting any ammunition or touching another character. Quickly press A(3) after getting the sniper rifle to use the back end of it as a weapon. Note: The polygons that make up the rifle butt resemble a paint brush.

Hints, tips, and tricks 

Floating weapons 
Locate the control room in the Bunker 2 level with the big screen. Place a remote mine on each of the eight televisions that are attached to the ceiling and destroy them. Throw mines, grenades, knives or fire the rocket launcher in the room and the weapons will float. If this trick is done during a single player game, the enemies will die with their weapons in their hands.

Invisible mines
Begin game play in multi-player mode. Place a mine on ammunition, then take the ammunition. Although the mine will still be at that location, it will not appear on your opponent’s screen.

Falling mines
Complete all the objectives on the Runway level except “Escape in plane”. Place a few timed mines on your plane, then enter and take off. You will see the mines fall out and explode when you are in the air.

Protecting Natalya
The easiest way to protect Natalya in the control room is to take out all the tables, except the one that she needs. This will give you a clean line of fire on the guards.

Kill Xenia easily 
Continuously fire the AR33 armed with a full magazine as she runs towards you. Alternatively, position Bond adjacent to the bridge and shoot her. She can not hit Bond at this location.

In the Jungle level on the two harder difficulty settings, the best and fastest way to kill Xenia is to set three remote mines on the front of the bridge. (The front being the closest part of the bridge as you come upon it.) Run about half way across the bridge, until you hear the music. Then turn around and run off the bridge and to the right. When you are far enough away from the mines, turn around the face the bridge. (You should facing the bridge at a 90 degree angle). Natalya will run across the bridge. Xenia will cross paths with her on the bridge. When Xenia gets to the end of the bridge she will stop and look around. This is when the mines should be detonated. Since the explosion will not kill her, scroll back to the AR33 and hit her will approximately ten shots to finish her. If done correctly, she will not have a chance to fire back.

Kill Trevelyan easily 
The best way to kill Trevelyan on the Cradle level is to blow him up. Get the armor, then run up the ramp. Kill the first onslaught of men (the 3 or 4 on the top of the ramp). One of them should have a grenade; if this does not occur, start again. After taking the grenade, run down and power down the dish as usual. Exit through the back door and Trevelyan should be down the ramp. Instead of shooting him, switch to the grenade and aim it straight down so that it bounces down the ramp. When the grenade hits the bottom it will explode and kill Trevelyan completely, with no lines, chasing, or other nonsense. Just run to the helicopter to be picked up to complete the mission.

This following trick works under any difficulty setting. In the Cradle, go to the bunker with the computer terminal. Go all of the way to the left of the door and turn around. You should now have your back to the wall, with the staircase directly in front of you and the door directly to your left. Shoot all of the men that walk down the stairs and out of the door. After about ten seconds you will hear an explosion, Trevelyan will start his “For England…” speech, and objective two will be complete. What happened was Trevelyan had dropped the grenade and forgot to run, thus killing himself. Now go in, destroy the terminal and leave.

Use two different guns simutaneously 
Obtain any paired set of guns. Then, hold A and press Z(2). Release A, then press A again. Press Z two or three times to fire while changing weapons. If timed correctly, the weapon being fired will be paired with another weapon creating a mixed set.

Hidden guns 
Locate the two boxes stacked on top of each other immediately before the first door on the left in the train level. Destroy them to collect a RC-P90 when playing under the Agent difficulty level. A DD44 will appear if playing under the Secret Agent difficulty level.

There are crates located near the “bunker” on the Dam level that also contain guns. Go to the switch, turn around, and shoot at the boxes directly in front of Bond.

Locate the control room with the master console in the Caverns level. Defeat all the enemies, then go all the way to the right to find two boxes. Shoot the box on the right, and another box will fall out. Keep destroying the boxes until two computers fall out. Each contains an AR30.

Silenced PP7s 
There is a set of two silenced PP7s on the second bunker level. There is a guard with a safe key in the room with the two double doors. Go to the room with the safe to find the two guns and a GoldenEye operating manual.

Return into the vents 
Begin game play in the Facility level in multi-player mode. Enable turbo mode and face the door. Press C-Left immediately after jumping on the toilet to pop back up into the vents. Note: Another way to accomplish this without turbo mode is to hold L + C-Right + Analog-stick Left + Z.

Bottomless pit 
First, earn the Bunker level for multi-player mode. Start a multi-player game at the bunker with grenade launchers, mines (any type), or any other type of explosive weapon. Take the explosive weapon outside the bunker. Move in the opposite direction from the bunker’s entrance. You should come to an invisible black wall. Look down and toss any type of explosive. The explosive never hit bottom.

Extra time on Train level 
An additional twenty seconds can be added to your time on this level under the 00 Agent difficulty setting by killing Xenia. Run in the room and position yourself in a diagonal line with General Ourimorv and Xenia. Shoot Ourimorv and keep firing as he dies to quickly kill Xenia.

Destroy the Egyptian level trap guns
The automatic trap guns on the Egyptian level are not indestructible; they can be blown up with explosive weapons.

Kill Baron Samedi permanently 
Kill Baron Samedi two times with the golden gun, then find him a third time. Shoot him and change the controller type to “Domino”. As the game is ending, continuously press the Z on controller two very quickly. Keep hitting the button during the ending sequence and you will be able to shoot Baron Samedi in the head with the golden gun. Note: This trick works better when a turbo controller is plugged into port two.

Find the tank 
Begin a game on the Runway level (Level 3). Go outside, then move all the way to the right. The tank is located around that corner.

Ride the tank 
Bond can drive the T-54 tank by climbing aboard and pressing B on the tower. Use the Analog-stick to steer, and switch to tank rounds to shoot targets.

Tank cruise control 
Get into a tank and start driving. While driving, switch to the tank cannon. Reach the desired speed, then hold down the aim button (R by default), and release the Analog-stick. The tank will now drive in a straight line by itself.

Another guard tower 
Begin a game on the Dam level (Level 1). Go to the middle (second) tower on the dam. Use your sniper rifle at maximum magnification to look the opposite way that you will bungee jump to find another tower across the water. This tower was going to be used in the game but was only left in for viewing.

Dancing characters 
Begin a multiplayer match. Have both players face each other within sight. Have one player stare at the other player while the other player looks straight at the ground. (It will appear as if the other player is staring at his or her toes.) Then, have the character that is staring at the ground rapidly tap the “strafe left” and “strafe right” buttons. That character’s arm will start to swing up and down as if he or she is dancing the Hustle. Have Jaws do this for a particularly funny effect.

Temporarily disable opponent’s auto-aim
Disarm yourself during a multi-player game by selecting Down until no weapons are held. Your opponent’s auto-aim will not function, making it very difficult for your character to be shot. This trick is especially useful when you want to make a quick getaway to grab more power-ups and don’t want to face a better-equipped player.

Invisible flag 
Begin a game of “Flag Tag” in multi-player mode. Find the flag, but do not pick it up. Instead, scroll through your weapons until your characcter is unarmed. Hold Fire and pick up the flag. The flag will now be invisible, and your character can kill the other players in the game. Note: Releasing Fire or scrolling the weapons will end this trick.

Destroying cameras easily 
Cameras can be destroyed with a single shot from any gun if they are hit directly in the lens.

Shoot during ending sequence 
Set the game controls to “Domino” and complete a level. Then, press Z on controller two to fire whatever Bond is holding during the current scene. Natalya may also be shot at the end of some levels.

Tony McHugh, Verse Chorus Verse & Friends

The singer-songwriter is sometimes considered the scourge of a good night out, leading to the mass exodus of any bar or venue when they tune up, or destined to be politely applauded (if lucky) at the end of every song while the audience wait for, say Bonnie Prince Billy to show up. Any budding guitar manglers might want to look at a night like this and stick to murdering Damien Rice on their own time. We do, of course mean that metaphorically – otherwise that would be illegal. And illegal isn’t cool, kids.

Tonight we’ve a combination of singers set free from their roles in respective bands and performers in their own right. First up we’ve got Darren Doherty from A Northern Light. Without the backing of his band, there’s a definite trad element to their work, recalling the likes of the Waterboys or, more recently of Mumford and Sons. There’s an instant buzz, far removed from the ‘same old, same old’.

There’s a two-ring circus style system in operation, with alternating areas for the different acts. Next up we have Chris Campbell and Paper Boats. He’s 20 years old, he’s been performing for a bare 6 months and he’s more than holding his own amongst the more seasoned performers. His voice recalls early, pre-Mercury award era Elbow. There’s some very strong songwriting on display and with the Paper Boats he’s got a great backing band.

Photgraph: Jessica Rodgers

Paul Corrigan is next up, with a fine clutch of tunes and a very strong voice, followed by the first of several bonus acts, Ryan from Kasper Rosa. Without the band behind him he maintains the complexity of the music, but adding his own unique vocals. It’s reminiscent of Mark Kozelek’s solo work, acoustic music that owes more to classic rock than the likes of Bob Dylan or Nick Drake. A world weary cover of Frightened Rabbit’s Poke ends the set nicely.

Linebacker Dirge are clearly not having a good night – a duet of violin and acoustic, there’s a few tuning issues and the audience, many of whom have been here for 4 hours are beginning to flag. At the end they rise above it and manage to nail the last tune.

Verse Chorus Verse is like the opposite of Bob Dylan going electric – ASIWYFA’s Tony going acoustic and singing. But there are no cries of Judas as he takes to the stage. There’s no vocal histrionics here, just a selection of songs, from the brand new to one he wrote when he was 14 years old. There’s a definite need by Tony to be heard beyond the parent band and the audience respond in kind.

The night is drawing to a close when Tony McHugh takes to the improvised stage. The loop pedal has become the stock in trade of the guitar hack, which means any attempt to use it creatively shines through. Four part harmonies, percussion and additional melodies enhance the songs, without drowning the song-writing on display. He engages the audience from the start improvising and adding a crowd pleasing Paul Simon cover.

The acoustic showcase can often be an endurance test, but tonight has shown that given the right crowd, the right venue and a terrifically strong line-up the much maligned singer songwriter can leave behind the shadow of grim open mic nights and make the scene their own.

Easter Eggs!

 

 

Hello friends, new and old. This Easter period some friends and I will be performing in the guise of an earlier project ‘Elysium’. Bringing an air of un-dead entertainment, with a whiff of sultry funk. The gigs have come from requests of random fans we meet in the street so we thought we’d give one more go at spreading some love. To those of you who have inspired this, thank you.

The first leg will be in Dungannon, with the second in Belfast.

Whether it’s a change of scenery or simply nostalgic indulgence we seek, Elysium will be hitting;

[unknown origins]

Sometime in the future I’m losing my mind. Getting worried about the price of things, falling behind. Becoming my father. I know I should be writing at every opportunity.. There’s no right time to say it, but pen & paper I don’t love you like I did. Don’t know where all this pressure comes from. I wonder if the hand signage people ever feel like that. I wonder why the blues makes us feel so good. It’s getting hard to give a damn but it’ll all turn around.

A glimpse, just a glimpse, but in that moment I felt the remnants of a world burned and used. I’m worrying about the holes in my shoes when there’s no time to lose. The great defenceless takes another blow. Its nothing. We’ll turn the lights down low and forget it. Try to raise our kids and teach them how to deal with it..

Father when I’m gone please take care of mother, sister and brother. It only hit me just now how important they are. They’re alive but they don’t shine the way we do. The tradition of the quiet man and my adolescence got in our way. Now I’m grown, or at least I think so. It hurts deep inside to know I wasted our time. Never thinking about who raised me, where I got those genes, questions and memories. Mum was night schooling and we were fooling around with those 18′s. You saw potential I hope and I hope I’m doing it justice. We talked of gods and their cons, but of love.. I was scared, always strayed from it. You raised your family through hard work and aching. I’m proud to say I’m your own. You made me, I know that’s not hard, but you raised me too. Now I raise myself.

Pulling out all the stops for this girl, she’s hot.

She had a bun in the oven. So naturally enough when I was stuffing her I wondered, “err… how many times can the soft spot take shots before this kid bursts like a balloon?”

I shoulda seen it coming. But she covered it up with such style and finesse: a glass of wine, cigarette and a loose dress. Did her a favour I guess.

She had a bun in the oven! I shoulda seen it comin’!

Once I had a woman. Gave me soul and good lovin’. Once I had a woman, a tall, dark and handsome baby. never put out, was a tranny maybe but she made my member melt to gravy.

Gave me soul and good lovin’ till the day I pushed past hugs and kisses, through the pain of knowing she weren’t a missus. when I turned that frown into something malicious.

Well if you knew the bun was in the oven, then it sounds like your intrusion made her insane, killed that baby in pain. The shit on your dick is baby bits. Murder!

The favour may be done, but shit started before the gun. Slap her round with her tits hangin round her ankles, rip up her dress, never give her Hyman a rest. That’s the finesse!
