This post might seem very very random but i was reading up

to help his family pay the bills and got a job.

And i think that they both made pretty good names for
themselves didn't they.
Prince and Kurt Cobain
These two rock star performers never finished high school
either... but Im not sure that Prince would have fitted in
well in school anyways? 
Pierce Brosnan 
Thats right JAMES BOND didn't finish high school!
Can you believe it, and look how famous he is, and dont

he dropped out to follow his dreams of being an actor.

at age 16. And she was the Princess of England!
Robert De Niro, Johnny Depp, Nicolas Cage 
and Whoopi Goldberg 
Are four Amazingly talented actors... and none of
them finished school!
And finally talent singer and drummer Phil Collins 
dropped out of high school at 17!
Now i'd just like to state i am not in anyway saying that 
their fame is linked to dropping out of school, 
and i'm not telling anyone to drop out of school.
I just wanted to post this to show you that if you are worried
about getting good grades, if you get bullied for not 
being as smart as your friends, just know it doesn't really
matter if what grades you get AS LONG as you have a dream!
School is a very small part of your life, your future and your 
happiness means a lot more. So follow you heart, Follow your 
dreams. And hopefully one day you will be in the magazine 
and living the life of your dreams!

Art is coming to an END!

Let's be honest, who doesn't have some art in their
home? Everyone owns a canvas or a framed bit of 
art. But how many of you know the artist who designed it?
I bet most of you couldn't answer..... and I would bet that you
bought them from a store and they are mass produced! It is 
thanks to mass produced art being so cheap that real artists have 
to try harder and harder to make a living. Who 
will pay a caricature artist £15 for a caricature of 
their favorite celeb, drawn just for them, when they
can go on ebay and buy a print of a caricature of that same
person for half the price? The reason these places 
sell these things so cheap is because they take no 
time to produce:press a button and print them 
out en masse. Whereas a real artist would have to factor in
the cost of the pens/paint that it takes to make the art. It's the sad 
truth that slowly original art is dying.

It is Beatle related... Really!

What is beatlemania without Beatle FANS? Its just 
great music, But like the screaming girls or not,
they were a massive part of the concerts, often meaning 
you went to their concerts and heard them a lot
more then any of the fab four on stage. But these days
the screaming fan girls might have grown up had 
families of their own and found a way to control 
their screams when they see a rock star....
But there are still fans there of course. 
And i am very very very lucky to have a girlfriend 
who is a BEATLEMANIAC! She is great. She loves
the beatles, and John is her favorite. 
Not only is she mine and not only is she a beatle fan
but she really caring and beautiful to. 
Its hard to get away from the fact she loves the 
same band i do. If its her t-shirts she wears or 
the video calls between us both, seeing her in her
room covered in beatles posters...It's just great. 
And i wanted to make this totally random blog 
to show her how much she means to me and how 
i think she the most perfect girl ever put on this 
earth! I hope she never ever doubts how i feel 
about her. She has been there for me for 2 and 
a half years (or there abouts) and she helped 
me so much last year in what was the most hardest
and terrible year of my life. So thank you Celeste,
Thank you for being YOU!

YOUTUBE VS THE BEATLES

I'm sure that most of you would have seen that you can no 
longer listen to most beatles songs on youtube, unless they 
are some useless cover version by an unknown artist on a 
webcam. So now the only places you can  listen to their music is 
on some streaming sites where you have to pay membership!
Why i think this is a bad idea is.... ALOT of people (the younger
generation) discovered the beatles thanks to youtube. 
Now thats all over, an i wonder how it will impact music? 
How is it fair you can access every justin bieber song and 
every song by one direction on youtube but you cant get THE 
BEATLES! The best band in history! This is just wrong.

New Framed Beatles pictures 

So yesterday i went to PoundLand and brought these 
lovely vintage style frames and i printed out these photos
today. The first one i got off of google or facebook a while ago. 
But the other second one i created myself.  Being an artist 
means i can make whatever i want for my room for much much 
cheaper then i could ever buy it for. Sorry i haven't been posting 
much but i PROMISE i will try and post more, its just been
very busy for me lately.

Yell-A-Phone!

There you go, for all those people that thought 
that the screams at the beatles concerts were not loud enough..
they actually sold this little bit of kit at the concerts so you 
could make your screams that little bit louder!
But sadly most of the were smashed on concert floors so
they are very rare indeed! But i'd still love one. Just to see
how well they actually work!
