LET'S SUPPORT RUSSELL

Russell Brand is not everyone's cup of tea. Personally I think he is hilarious, risky but never the less hilarious but whether you are a lover or a loather (there seems to be little in the middle) I think this gig will be one not to be missed.

I have had experience first hand of addiction so I really can connect with the personal journey Russell has been on and I know and can totally relate to his passion to help people who he so rightly describes as "pain's in the arse"

Addicted people are horrible much of the time, they are completely self centred and self absorbed which means even the most tolerant of family and friends give up eventually. If you haven't been addicted and got better you just don't get it and if you are addicted and haven't got better you don't get it either and so addicted people are often left, and thus eventually kill themselves one way or another.

I really admire the spot light Russell Brand is shining on this social problem which affects so many of us, we may not be addicted but likely we know someone who is, and I don't just mean addicted to alcohol or drugs because anyone who is obese also has addiction issues and that includes many people in the UK.

This concert includes Emeli Sande, Jessie J, Kasabian, Noel Gallagher, Nicole Scherzinger in the line up, I'm so happy to see so many big names giving their time and talent in support.

Not cheap I know at £54 pounds per ticket but I'm sure the gig will be amazing. I'll be there. I hope you will too.
