i knew it’d be good here. the carnival is ace. kian had me worried that it was going to be about history, but it’s actually awesome. it reminds me of the gay pride festival i once went to (don’t ask – long story!). even better is the fact that we’ve got a new task from the producers and its actually a good one. we have to walk around pretending to be famous. apparently we’ve got to convince as many people as possible that we’re a famous person. well – ok! it’s any famous person i think. that’ll be hard with these huge cameras following us around! not. girls are gonna see those and believe ANYTHING i tell them. i’m going to walk this challenge. no contest. and i’m gonna get some loving while i do it. perfect.I might just tell them the truth – i’m Jude Jasper – I’m probably famous already.
thanks for trying to ruin my good time emma. she seriously just flipped out at me over nothing. everyone’s being really lame about fleabay at the moment actually- it’s like no one’s got a sense of humour anymore. this was different to the usual stuff though. she changed completely and really went crazy at me for no reason. is she mental!? i didn’t do anything! i definitely saw a different side to her today, one i never want to see again. i’m not going to forget it. im staying away from her from now on.
we’re at notting hill carnival today. i was a bit worried about it being quite kiddy but it actually looks pretty fun. there are a lot of crazy looking people walking around. i’m definitely happy to get off the bus. i think that wherever we were now i’d be up for going crazy- we had such a #### time at the party. so annoying after we organised the whole thing to have it ruined by having to wear a costume. it was impossible to hear anything or talk to anyone. not that i’d want to while dressed as a hotdog. thank #### there isn’t going to be anything like that here. there’s nothing to stop me enjoying myself.
noel and liam are always fighting but this time it seems really serious. they’re saying that its over for ##### sake. they were one of the first bands that i really loved. real life heroes. at least i got to meet liam before the end. ####! was benicassim their last festival? not sure. i always wanted to support them too. ibeatnik and oasis wouldve been perfect together. everything has to end sometime i guess. i’m upset but maybe its time for some new blood?
now because of dieter we all have to wear these stupid costumes to the party. i know the producer’s only making us wear them because dieter cheated on the task by getting his mates to do everything. thanks a lot. now we all have to dress up as hotdogs. that’s really cool. i hope you’re happy. i’m actually glad that no good bands are gonna be here to see that. dieter I hope you read this – you are a total ######.
it ###### me off to see everyone thanking dieter for something i was JUST ABOUT TO DO! actually i had to cancel the people i had coming because of him and his promoter mates. and this aint my granny i’m talking about. dieter just took over and booked it all without asking me what i’d done. i just hope that los campesinos dont mind being cancelled on . but somehow i bet they do. you can’t mess around with a band that size. they dont forget stuff like that. whatever. i mean they dont have a problem with me -i told them the deal and that dieter screwed it up. he really should’ve asked me before bringing in his cronies. it was all about to go off. we’ll see what they can do. it better be good though. but if this ##### up any chances of ibeatnik supporting campesinos then dieter better WATCH HIS BACK. he’d better watch it anyway, but doubly YKWIM?
party planning is driving me mental. im so sick of arguing with venue owners about insurance and fire plans.how can i make this clear – I do not give a flying ####. OK? why is it impossible to find somewhere that stays open late?! it’s london for ##### sake. the whole thing is just so last minute – bands don’t really want to be called up on the day with no notice. i’m trying to pull in some massive favours that would make the party but it depends on whether i can get hold of anyone now. I dont like to tap these mates for favours – everyone does and I don’t like to take libs with their fame. I mean, these that I have in mind you’d wet your pants if you knew who I’m talking about. mates of mine. but they aint gonna be waiting by their phones. theyre too big for that. when i do get them though everyone’s gonna owe me big.
taking a break from planning. im pretty sick of it. we’re just arguing about everything. yawn.
youtube is the best for distractions. the best thing ive found today:
croatia was so amazing. i dont usually get post holiday blues but this time i think im going to miss that place. i met some great people there – the kind of people you have to stay in touch with. this one guy paul was really cool – wotcha paul! im always going to have a place to stay there now. who else can say that about croatia?!
anyway we’re back in london now trying to do this new task. ####. organising is boring. i’d never thought about that side of party planning- its not exactly my area. i usually just turn up with a guitar and bring the fun. i’m gonna get so drunk at this party. we just need to invite as many fit girls as possible. i’ll be in charge of that. i don’t mind!
What one moment in your life most defines who you are today?when my mum bought me a guitar when i was 11. a fender telecaster. i couldnt put it down. then i wrote my first song when i was 12 and i knew i would never get tired of doing it. now im the frontman for the next big british band ibeatnik...i've still got that guitar! also did you know that tim wheeler wrote ‘girl from mars’ when he was 12? its true!If you could be any living famous person for one week, who would you be?alex turnerIf you could be any historical character for one week, who would you be?alex turner!Want to know more about me?Click here
