The things I have been up to..in no particular order

I'm not even really sure to start with everything that's been going on - what I do know is that if you haven't heard of this band than you need to get out more.

So first off I need to thank The Musebox for setting up this amazing series of events called Beautiful Noise [not Beautiful Music as Gareth stated during the show with People in Planes]...woah SOLID segue. So Sunday April 6th The Musebox graciously accepted my rsvp to attend the taping with People in Planes [PIP]. A band that Yvonne Matsell [El Mo] turned me on to a few years back when they played Toronto but because I hadn't realized that a supplementary bar job downtown is WAY better than in Etobicoke - I MISSED THE SHOW.

That my friends is one of the worst forms of punishment for a chick like me. Knowing about a band, obsessing about the band, emotionally responding to them and than being unable to get to the show.


Did you watch this?



Did you go STRAIGHT to their myspace..cause dude if you didn't ur pretty much dead inside. Yep - there it is..just gonna put that out there for ya. These guys are from Wales...and I know that pretty much anything out of the UK is pred-disposed to kicking ass BUT these guys are from Wales. WAY different ladies and gentlmen. The Welsh and the English are a whole different breed from each other.


I digress... So the Musebox did these crazy tapings that you can watch one day soon I'm sure...just don't be jealous that I got to see it first.

Who knows - maybe you'll see my face and be all "fuck maybe next time Gill texts me to be somewhere I SHOULD GO!! [raymi] just sayin.

So we get to the show [with polkaroo in attendance in you can believe it!] and immediately head for some Steamwhistles. Amanda and Chris are with us and amen cause Chris knows the band from being on tour with them AND he knows the booker/mgr of Berkeley Church so we gets the grand tour - including the TREEHOUSE - a little bit of cottage heaven in a concrete world.

I'm not going to rant about how amazing the show was - i don't need any haters and we all know how jealousy can twist even the truest admirer.

I have an appt. I'll be back.

interruption

k...so this post has nothing to do with the continuation to the SXSW post I KNOW I've got coming..STILL...I'm at a friends house..and I'm on a MAC..that means I don't actually know what to do for a lot of the punctuation. oh wait. i just stopped thinking and let my fingers react to the keyboard and apparently I DO know the proper key strokes.

so deal with the fuck ups. deal with my misspells. fuck it. if you want to give me $2000 i'll buy a fuckin MAC BUT until than you can deal with all the shit that comes from a PC user struggling in unknown territory.... FYI - MACs are NOT easier.. or cooler...well maybe the commercials are.

So not sure if you're aware but I work at a bar. yep. i work Mon to Fri at NXNE and than I work at a bar. s'alright I guess. we're all friends. money's cool. music 90% solid.  

you know what - fuck it. Now's not the time to write this shit. 'll be back. suffice it to say Lindsey has the best dog voice. Bailey is the smartest dog. and it's 4am and I'm knackered.
