Thanks for all the comments guys! Its touching to know that people care about me and what has happened. But now the past is something to put behind me and starting working on a bright future.

I've been thinking about music over the last few of days. Great events have been happening in my life and I find that I relate music to these events and sink into a music mode.

I've been listening to someones Top 1000 Rock Songs compilation while travelling and a Top 100 Guitar Solos compilation while at work. Both were from usenet and they had essentially taken great tracks from various different compilation albums and put them all together. The Top 1000 is an eclectic mix of artists, which is something I appreciate as my music tastes are pretty varied (although I have a sincere preference for RAWK!).

My current favourite track is "Maggot Brain" by George Clinton, along with various tracks by Ed Alleyne-Johnson. I have his UltraViolet (2 of them, original release) and Purple Electric Violin Concerto albums. Do a search for him and read about the way he makes his music. Its original and very, very impressive.

This has made me look through the various live music listings on the internet for groups I might be interested in. Bristol Bierkeller has Nazareth, Magnum and Deicide playing before the end of the year. Add Whitesnake and a load of local bands and my rock quota should be back to normal this year. Next year - maybe 1 concert a month if I can manage it...
