Busy Girl
So, I'm a bit rubbish with this whole blogging thing at the moment. But as always I do have a fairly valid reason to be.
Well, I'm a student and a radio presenter as well as the occasional on screen presenter - and so I have a very busy lifestyle. I eat sushi on the weekend, after long days of shopping. And I like to spend my Sundays reading classic novels, after going for a walk by the river. Then week days, well...that's one big busy schedule that tends to merge in to one (most months). So, as you can see I'm very busy.
I really wish that most of that was true, the first sentence is true. But the rest isn't. I've never tried sushi, and never really intend on doing so. I don't like shopping in shops on a Saturday because it's always too busy esp. since I live in London - I prefer online shopping. And Sunday's aren't spent reading novels, they are spent doing homework that's due in for Monday. So I am busy but not that kind of busy, my schedule and lifestyle is completely different to that (at the moment). I think that would be my ideal of being 'busy' but in actual fact I do much more than that.
ANYWAYZZZZ:

Ed She Ran!
Heyaaaa,
I really dont know why I put "Ed She Ran!" as the title for this post, because to my awareness no one ran! :/
BUTTT...
...yesterday I saw Ed Sheeran in the Hammersmith Apollo (cinema turn't gig space - and when I told my mate this, she was like "I don't care").
Anyway, he was amazing (two words I use often "Anyway" and "amazing"). He really got the crowd going, and some times his gig was calm, and other times they were pretty mad and intense! At one point he got everyone to put there arms round the person they came with and to sway with them. This was fun, my only issue is that my mate is about 5cm tall and I'm about a metre tall (if we could convert it in to cm stuff - I really should stop teasing her about her height, really she cant do anything to change it - therefore I declare (right here, right now) on blogspot that I love her shortness, and I only tease her out of love! Amen).
Ed Sheeran was really good live, and to be honest I kinda knew what to expect because I saw him at the Hackney Weekender, but the HUGEEE stage didnt do him much justice because his music is quite raw.
He used the loopy thing a couple of times, and got the audience to be quiet, and it felt really nice - it felt like I was in a personal recording session with Ed, and just watching him do his thing.
As always, I did my "Woooooo!" thing, and I always aimed to catch the quiet points in the gig (obviously except the times he told everyone to be quiet).
In addition to Ed, he also had some fantastic support acts.One of which, was amazing in terms of vocals and sounded like a one man band Mumford and Son. He's name was Passenger and I guess you could check him out. I think he has a EP coming out soon (or its just come out, I cant remember which).

ANYWAY, last night was pretty epic, I got home mega late, and still had homework to do. I thought, lemme go to bed now, and in the morning I will see a more motivated, young individual who isn't so tired!

Disclosure - The Face EP
Hello I'm back,
I thought I'd feed my blog readers with some more great music!
As many of you may (or may not) know, I am a huge fan of Disclosure. I found out about them some time last year, and ever since I have been hooked!
Anyway they have just released a new EP. On a random note: Doesn't the word "released" make it sound like an animal? Maybe it just me, but you could just imagine that like an animal, the EP being released from the simple knowledge of a couple of people, and then reaching the masses (with a beastly attitude)!
You can find this NEW EP (released just ONE DAY ago - roarrrr), on soundcloud (click on the word soundcloud to be directed directly to the wonderful, amazing, fantastic EP; that is 'The Face').
My favourite song on the EP is 'Control ft Ria Ritchie' - I don't know if that's because I had heard the others way before, and I had rinsed them!
Let me just give you a little background knowledge of the boys:
Called a "Dance pop duo" by the Guardian, so they obvious consist of two people. Those two people are brothers and they go by the name of Guy and Howard Lawrence.
I'm going to use a word that I have been using all week (because of MIC - Made In Chelsea), but they seem like a gregarious duo. They are both very young, both in age and on the scene.
To find out more about the band, go on to their facebook, twitter and soundcloud to follow any updates.

OFFLINE.
Heya Y'all,
I thought I'd leave another post, because currently I have nothing other than revision to do, and its the biggest bore of my life (currently).
So, I say I haven't got anything to do, as right now, if I knew my passwords for some of the social networking sites I have an account to, I would be on it right now. But I have to defeat my obsession with social networking, as I'm not even networking! I'm just stalking people.
I'm planning on going on a twitter and facebook fast. I expect that I'll lose followers on twitter. And well my mates will probably abandon me for the rest of my life (because I'm not on facebook).
I know I keep saying this, but I actually need to change my background and shizzle on this blog. It just looks so boring! Any ideas?
I would say tweet me at @Erica_Mckoy but I currently wont be able to see those tweets so it would be pointless.
I'm going to post some new and current music soonif I find the time.
YOLO
Erica
