Oh, guys, I'm so excited! Boyd oh Boyd and Essentially Billy were mentioned on yesterday's XFM show!
Danny Wallace: Listen, you've got fans, yeah, I've been cruising the interwebs, you know, things like Boyd oh Boyd dot net, which boasts the only half British, half Czech Billy Boyd Fan site.
Billy: I may be checking that one out, I haven't seen it.
DW: And Essentially Billy - have you seen that one?
BB: Essentially Billy? No...
DW: Ah come on, you must have seen these!
BB: There's one, there's one website on my groin, which is a favourite of mine, I can't remember what it's called, but it..
DW: A website on your groin?
BB: Yeah, basically.
DW: Let's have a look...
(pause while they look it up on D's laptop)
RG: Absolutely magnificent!
DW: I can see how that would be appreciated.
BB: I don't know if it's worth a whole website.
DW: Do you think this is too much? I don't know [missed bit] i'm putting this to you: do you think that 8000 pictures of you on a website is a bit too much?
BB:Well, that one's my own website!
DW: (Laughs)
You can listen to the whole show here. Just click on "listen again" and choose "Last 7 Days: Danny Wallace". I'm just listening to it :)
EDIT Billy appears after two hours from the beginning. None of our questions mentioned :(
XFM Radio Billy was on today's Danny Wallace show on XFM Radio and as far as I know, he should answer on some questions which we made up. I don't know the result yet, but I hope someone listened to it and recorded it :)
EMPTY From February 28 you can watch this sitcom on BBC2! It starts at 10pm and as you know, it's all about Billy (Tony) and Gregor Fisher (Jacky) :) A description with two pictures can be found here.
Have I ever said how I hate not living in UK? Any chance of recording?
Although this is an article about Dominic Monaghan, there is a little mention about Billy and Beecake, too :)
• LOST STAR GETS LEAD ROLE:
Meanwhile, it has emerged that Dominic provided the inspiration for the name of fellow LORD OF THE RINGS actor BILLY BOYD's band.
Boyd, best known for his role as Pippin in the fantasy films, changed the band's name to BEECAKE after Monaghan sent him a picture of a cake covered in bees that he had seen when holidaying in Spain, reports the Inverness Courier.
Investors willing to stump up at least 5,000 will get the chance to audition for a speaking part in a trilogy of films set in London.
A trilogy of films set and filmed in London will have at least one new face among a cast including Neve Campbell and Kelly Reilly.
Any investor willing to stump up at least £5,000 will get the chance to audition for a speaking part in one of them.
Quicksilver Films is looking to raise £2 million of a total £2.4 million budget for the three scripts.
Matchstalk Men, based on a play by Mark Underwood, is a pyromaniac thriller. It has Campbell, star of Scream, Reilly from Mrs Henderson Presents, Leo Gregory, of Stoned and Green Street, and Billy Boyd, from Lord Of The Rings, attached to appear.
The other two films on the slate are The Last Olympian, a futuristic thriller set in 2054, and No Reason, a psychological study of a London office worker.
The projects have been brought together by Rebecca Long, a Rada and King's College graduate; Lance Roehrig, an assistant director, whose work includes Mr Bean's Holiday and Hotel Rwanda; Alexander Holt, a director in film and theatre, and Underwood himself.
Long said: "We figured there must be a lot of small investors out there who would love the opportunity to act in a movie."
BEECAKE Beecake has another gig! It's on February 13 at at X FM SCOTLAND in Glasgow. More information here.
AN OLDIE I came across a 4-yr-old article I have never seen before. If you have a little time definitely read this, they talk really nice about him :)
• Billy is just a home boy at heart
Renate just sent me a piece of information, that Billy will attend the premiere of the Lord of the Ring concert tour which will take place in Munich on March 26.
180 musicians will perform the complete original score of “The Fellowship of the Ring” while the film is shown on large-screen display.
BEECAKE John Crawford, the drummer, posted yesterday this entry about Grand Ole Opry Gig:
Just arrived home in the wind and rain...however had a great night playing with my bestest pals...we seemed to laugh more tonight on stage than played music.I had a great time.B.J couldn't stop smiling through the whole gig.Great to see everyone who attended...you do scrub up well...hope you liked the adlib at the end on Soul Swimming...a little twist to the original song...very laid back and a wee bit sexy.
The other performers/bands were great too very nice people,a pleasure to meet some new friends from L.A. & San Diego...and Chargers fans...nice!
I am dissapionted about the Ironworks gig cancellation in Inverness as we loved playing there in December,great venue and we were looking forward to the trip and the gig.Im sure we will make it up there again.
Another gig for Beecake and another great week on the myspace charts...the number of plays are truly amazing.
Keep listening...Go on...dive too deep...its fun !
