ugh that always ends badly! mongrels, spring '09

in the bloody office on a weekend again

i should learn to start taking my laptop home on weekends

I LOVE ILX. walked into the club and who was the first person we saw but our Haitch. good to see him. how else but with ilx would i know someone in a club halfway around the world. <3

this was totally hilarious! had been waiting for my mate C to turn up and then you guys did too, was convinced that with all the people there last night i would've had not chance.

think jim's hangover has migrated to parkville ifuknowhatimean

xo haitch & friend, such a nice welcome wagon. <3 melbourne.

tuesday's good. i think our train gets in around 7, so we'll be over after that.

oh, train from Melbourne? might as well just go straight to the Clare then, easier to find from Central.

unexpected oktoberfest booze kept me asleep till 1pm. should take a day off til tomorrow but there's so much to finish in the house...

would wednesday make any more sense for you all? we could go earlier (post-work) and lxy and i wouldn't have to worry about bags or being late

Wednesday would suit me more but I'm cool with witheva.

Dont forget daylight savings tonight peeps! Unless you are backwards and live in WA or QLD (sorry estela heh)

dalisaster. 2+ hours wait. we fucked off within 15 minutes thankfully.

fitzroy! <3<3<3 finally a chill nice neighborhood without drunk dudes every 5 metres. ended up at this place http://gertrudes.com.au/ v v nice

oh brown couch! that place is nice.

isn't it? i loved it very much. would couch again.

afternoon

how is everyone coping with daylight savings

i managed to turn off my alarm in my sleep and wake up exactly 61 minutes late

lol

dealin OK - nodded off yesserday afternoon tho due to early rise for bike ride

thinkin i might go and check out this sunday reeds band @ tote tomoz, h-man & dogg welcome to join me if so desired

woops its on thurs not tues

that would have been embarrassing

possibly...

good show on weds also at hoarse bizarre.

what be on

hmm i see camera obscura back in aus in jan

that singer of theirs was SO CRANKY onstage last time they were here. so much anger for somebody so tiny.

Sydney, Wednesday, The Clare.
Name the time and we are there.

ah, everyone already knows Tuesday! Let's say Tuesday whenever you can get there after 7, hopefully people will show up, and then if we survive alcoholic annihilation, refappage on Weds remains possible.

Tonight isn't looking too likely for me now (tis a long, complicated story) but I can do ReFAP on Wednesday if anyone is up for it.

weds is just as good for me if that makes more sense for other ppl. still not fully recovered from sun night tbqh :O

did erol roq the house then

gonzales version of 'waves' = fantastic!!

yeah erol was great! my mates piked out fairly early but k1t and me kept it real till the bitter end

tbh i wasn't exactly sure of what i was gonna get but yeah he really brought it - plenty of records i hadn't heard and not too much of the ed banger-type stuff. (altho did play 'waters of nazareth' as last track, haha)

sorry bros defintely can't do tonight, must deal with university dealings :-(

can do tomorrow night if it is a goer :-)

gaz is on hols but I will probably be working til after 6.30 so def down for crossing the road for beers and chatz and then winning many more beers thru trivial powers; edwardo is coming too. roll up jabba!

and MOLEY if you are reading this today and can drop by for a glass or two I will buy! the Clare is on Broadway opposite UTS.

Haven’t heard the Gonzo Waves so didn’t recognise it if Erol did play it! Most surprising floorfiller – his re-edit of the Aeroplane mix of Williams Blood that removed all the verses and choruses. Jabba’s best trainspot: half a note of the Knight Rider theme, an hour before the actual melody bubbled up in something. Biggest shame: that they closed at 3:50 when Erol stopped, and OH LET’S SAY Joakim (who was hanging out and bringing Erol beer) didn’t drop some wonky grooves for the die-hards. But I guess they had planes to catch. (I went to see if I could get into Claude Von Stroke, but entry had stopped at 3)

Great set though, miles better than either of the Disco 3000 podcasts and lightyears better than the Ed’s Banginest Bangers he was playing on the main stage during the day.

otm, def the best set i've heard from him in ages. barely a whisper of frankendance to be heard. i'll see some of u down at the clare shortly...

my initial forays into making acid remixes are proving more difficult than advertised

If jergins is stuck on a train, or in a hostel in the cross, and reading this, still come down to da Clare - we are here. Otherwise tomorrow we'll go somewhere fancier!

I just got a letter in the mail reminding me I havent paid an overdue final invoice from Simply Energy. I havent had them as my elec reseller for over 12 months. I've changed suppliers AND moved house since, and on top of that its a bill for $560-odd which is abou $300 more than I'd usually rack up for an invoice.

This is the only correspondence ive seen from these guys since I changed away from them well over 12 months ago. WTF? What do I do about this shit?

call & make sure it's not a mistake for starters

Yeah it seems pretty dodgy. Why would they send this now, a year after I cancelled with them?

Hey does anyone know anything about this Mr Let's Paint! guy doing one of his "exercise, paint and make drinks" thingies this weekend? His site says Horse Bazaar but their site doesnt mention it.

i know even less than i did before you posted that

LOL I feared that might be the case.

Hes one of those lol Youtube sensations, runs on a treadmill doing (fake?) shopping channel type rants, while painting on an easel, and making mixed drinks in a blender.

Its as stupid as it sounds but Rob loves the shit out of it.

it sounds like a japanese tv show. even the name!

Let's Paint, Exercise, and Make Blended Drinks

Apaz also on Friday at some place called Tape Space in Carlton. Where the eff is that?

dunno, sounds hip

1/81 BOUVERIE ST, CARLTON apparently

Never heard of that street, weird. Anyway Rob was gonna go to Jack On Fire so I dount he'll do both, and I dont really feel like getting covered in paint and smoothies :/

Oh rite thats easy to get to.
