Punks Rock!

Tanya came down from Newcastle on Friday night, I think mostly as she couldn't wait for our Punk Rock party we were hosting on the Saturday night :) We ended up going out for a drink and some pizza, but the next day was ridiculously busy. Jo and Tanya headed out shopping for food, drinks and god knows what else. I went out to buy some speakers for the computer (something I had been meaning to do for about 3 years now!). I finally found the elusive Harman Kardon Soundsticks II at Bing Lee and they didn't disappoint! When Jo and Tanya got home, we had an entire afternoon of preparing and cooking food for what seemed like 100 people, even though we were only expecting about 17.

The Punk Girls!

We finally finished about 5pm and then had to get ready for the night - we had been out shopping earlier in the week to get our outfits - so this part didn't take too long.

People started to arrive for the party around 7pm and by 8:30pm things were in full flow, with Jo belting out "The Greatest Love of All" on SingStar!!

Phillippe and Donna

A special mention has to go to Philippe, who was easily the coolest looking punk at the party! We rocked on until the early hours, quickly going though our reportoire of songs on 4 SingStar CDs (PlayStation game) plus Donna's playlists on iTunes. And all of the food got eaten too! Hurrah!

No, call me pedantic if you like but why was Jo singing "The greatest love of all" on Singstar when it was a Punk party!!?? Surely a cover of "Anarchy in the UK" by the Sex Pistols would have been more appropriate!!??

Gotta love Singstar though...
