I went to see Jeff Wayne’s War of the Worlds at the Brighton Centre last night.

I’ve never been much of a music-buff but I’ve loved the double-CD for a long time. Last year we were unable to obtain tickets due to their popularity and my Dad actually bought them a year ago for last night’s show!

It may sound unnecessarily girly, but I found the whole first half extremely moving. The music was (in the traditional sense of the word) awesome and at exactly the right volume. What really made it, though, were the images that accompanied the musicians and singers on stage — simply perfect.

If you can get tickets (you can’t, actually) then I cannot recommend it enough. Really.

He may not be a nice man, he may even be a terrorist. But if he is, lets prove it in court. And if we won’t prove it in court, bloody release him.

I feel sick just thinking about how complacent the British have become.
