Well actually, Heather, I'm glad you asked. hmmmm, I think I may go see Revolver and The Slacks tonight at the Bollix. Then tomorrow Pine, Fang and Ejector are playing at the King's Arms. Ooooo, that'll be fun! Pity I'll miss the free Augustino gig out in Highland Park, but hey! they're doing a whole stack more gigs over the next coupla months. AND then 1QA are playing with Bolbox Rex on Saturday at the KA! Wow, what a weekend!
Pine were really great, Fang started a bit hesitantly but warmed into a really good set, Ejector were loud. The audience were really really crap. My giant friend was cranky. The highlight of my night was meeting Prozaco and Koe, and Blink briefly.
<? - do you care to elaborate.....like does that mean:
1/ ahem - check them out
or is that in fact
2/ I don't want to mention Blindspott for fear of people thinking I am uncool, in which case I simply cannot go on living as my self esteem is directly fed by what other people I hardly know might think of me.
Also, while I am threatening to whinge and complain, might Heather stop talking about her man so much - it ruins the idealist image all the man/boys and lady-loving-ladies on the site who like to picture a scantilly-clad Heather Mansfield look-alike typing furiously over her computer, sipping expensive red wine and reaching into her vault of wit to issue another IQ stretching comment of enlightenment and yet still be quite sexy while doing so
Aha! I don't have a man. I have some friends though. And one accomplice; a partner-in-crime if you will... And, as luck would have it, a backup-partner-in-crime for when my partner-in-crime is busy. And I decided a little while ago to stop whinging about that which wasn't meant to be, because it's unbecoming. So I'm about half a step ahead of you.
//scantilly-clad
hmmm, not quite sure whether I want to encourage that...aw, what the hell, knock yourself out.
groove armarder (spelling?) this sunday
moby on the 17th (dunno if you guys like his music, but i do lke some of it)
counting crows (on the 10th i think) for all you crows fans :P
ben harper on the 28th, auckland is stacked of gigs.
plus you got all the nz gigs in there too. god damn i am lovin march '03
in other great auckland band news... the new kids on the auckland rock block are the scabs (sp? unsure), skinny white rural kids singing midwest white trash - they're ace.
hmmm.... All the cool stuff was crammed into O-week.
Augustino & Jordan Luck's RocknRoll Circus on Friday at a venue delicately named the Outhouse... I'll probably go, although most of my friends would take an invitation as an insult.
However, Mother Guru CD release party at KA next Wednesday, supported by 1QA. That sounds pretty promising...
//not keen on getting up at 6am the morning after a gig
fair do's. I'm not keen on getting up at 11am the morning after a gig. If it makes it more possible, you're welcome to crash on my couch...it's a really comfy couch and all...
//any good gigs this weekend?...i need stuff to do!
//augustino: this friday? i might have something on this friday... grr...
hmmm, subtle. Is this your polite way of saying "ugh! Jordan Luck & Augustino at the Outhouse! Spare Me!"? Actually you won't be missing much, except for perhaps me trying to hit on the guitarist (which, as you can imagine, is not really the height of entertainment either). Their upcoming gig at the Bollix will be way better (ha! you're not here for that one either).
//Go see Mr Lemon & Goon
Hmm, maybe. Will you be there Big_Stu?
//actually it was more like my way of saying "i really want to go to summer jam but i don't want anyone to know about it"...
Ha ha!
//and then on thursday you can wake me with CAKE because its my birthday!
Oh, god, no! Another Pisces-Aries cusp! EEEEAAARRRRGGGHHHHH!!!
I mean - yeah, great! We'll have cake...
// i'm 100% pisces thankyouverymuch
hmmm....ok then, I'll give you cake. But if I find out you were born in Europe in the evening, by corry, I'm taking that cake back again!
hmm... i think i missed something again.
i'm not going back to starmart to stand in the cooler again (as refreshing as it was) and have the attendant ask me if i am going to a fancy dress party. i don't look that scary! hmph.
