I mean, you don't go there to hear new and challenging music. You go to dance yourself stupid to the big club hits. Which is what I did. Plus there were good friends, and beautiful women, and several who were both.
The 9th birthday team-up with the old Oxide crew was a Damn Fine Idea. Got to jump around to the Mighty Mighty Bosstones. And Nirvana. And some dumb punk cover of "The Summer of 69".
The only downside to the evening: my lower back is fux0r3d.
I blame the training course last week. Humans are not design to sit behind a desk for 8 hours a day.
Saturday...
We slept late, then meandered into the city for Free Comic Book Day. I bought Adrian Tomine's Scrapbook (slice of life minicomics, big inspiration for Death By Music), while![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
andricongirl rifled through the free comics box.
Then we went down to Missing Link. I bought Minor Threat Complete Discography and the new Bad Religion CD, The Empire Strikes First. A* bought a Wire box set.
We were served by a bored blonde girl wearing a Ralph Lauren t-shirt. It was just wrong.
Saturday Night
Party atmorgan303 and reinzero's house. Reinzero showed us his scorpions (they glow under UV), morgan303 let us handle her snake (very friendly, very cute), and the evening ended with a potted history of Melbourne's gothic basketball team.
Great party. Thanks guys.
Sunday
Slept in. Did back exercises. Played guitar.
And later we went for a walk across the Yarra, past all the giant, turreted mansions on the hill. Evening was settling down around them, and they looked like buildings from a dream.
