Well, it's been just another normal week in the life of The Cameleonz!
Monday seems like an absolute lifetime ago, but we decided to continue our fitness burst and headed off to the gym, giving a dance mix of "Should I Stay" to the owner, John. He only went and embarassed us by constantly playing it! It's hard to lift weights when you are as red as a tomato!!
We made another trip to the gym the following day, but then ruined it all by heading to Nando's in Nottingham, where we celebrated Lis' brothers 19th birthday. It was well worth it though, we had a great night and you can't argue with Nando's chicken!!!
Our big plan to work off the Nando's was to hunt down a wardrobe for our ever expanding collection of clothes. You would have thought that finding a wardrobe would be pretty easy. Let us tell you- it isn't!! We ended up driving round half the country in search for a wooden box!! We eventually ordered one from Argos. What a pain in the backside!! Oh yeah, we also went to the gym again!!
Thursday was an important day- we moved our office. After plenty of in depth discussions and meetings, it was decided that the office would move all the way from Marcus' house to Lis'! Glad we sorted that...
Friday was definately the start of a hectic weekend for us. We got up nice and early to do some sightseeing of the East Lincolnshire coast before our gig in the evening. As we got closer to the venue though, it began to snow. As it came down heavier and heavier, we ended up having to walk across the freezing cold beach. Lis was not happy- it was absolutely freezing. We've had enough of this snow now- bring back the sun!!
After finishing the show, we travelled to Corporal Nyauko's house (from Bad Lad's Army). After stopping for chicken kebabs on the way (yum yum), we ended up getting to Nooky's house at about 2 in the morning. The last thing you want at that time of the day is a few jabs to the ribs, but that was Marcus' welcome! Lis was far luckier- getting a nice big hug!!
Just as we were looking forward to a Saturday morning lie in, we were woken up in true military style at 7.00 by Nooky, who asked us if we wanted to go for a 2 mile walk. Errr, no thanks!!
It was great to catch up with Nooky during the day though, and we watched a repeat of Celebrity Big Brother. Marcus reckons the guy from Basshunter is an absolute legend. Why? For shouting out "I love farts" on National TV!!! He still laughs now!!
We travelled across Lincolnshire for our next gig on Saturday night. We had to drive down some jeepers creepers road which freaked us out, but it was well worth it to get to our destination- Brant Road Social Club. We had an amazing gig and met some really cool people. Had an ace time!
Our Sunday gig was in Chesterfield, but we got there eary. Very early! Infact, FOUR hours early!! To pass the time, we headed to the cinema and watched 'The Edge of Darkness'. It was a pretty good film to be fair. There was still enough time before our gig to sit in the car and tune into Radio 1 for the top 40, as we do religiously every weekend! So glad Fireflies made it to number one, it's a mint tune!
The gig had a bit of a slow start as we were getting major technical problems, but hey, what's life without a few technical probs?!! Lis reckons she got an electric shock off the lights, but it was more of a static shock so don't worry, she's still alive! After the start, it ended up being a good night though. It was awesome to hear "Should I Stay" blasting out of your cars after the gig.
So, the end of a nice quiet week and we finished up back in sunny Stoke! Don't forget to pop back onto the website every week for our latest updates!!
Marcus and Lis
