Post Apoptyma Berzerk
Hey All,
The Apoptyma show was surprisingly good. It was very euro-techno in places, but for some reason it made sense in the live context (live being a flexible word... most of the keyboards were clearly sequences/loops triggered off one of two powerbooks).
At the show saw: Liam, Nick, his AFI obsessed friend Dinah, Electro Rose of Texas, Glen and Davey Havok, who was enjoying the Dark EBM/Whatever sounds. I had a quick chat to him, but I made a spot judgement not to introduce Dinah.
Also present were three old-school Brisbane folk. One of whom is moving to Switzerland at the behest of his employers soon. Same pay, less expensive city (but not by much) plus a $2000 American grant to take German Lessons.
After Apoptyma I talked to a Swede and her American Friend (who also spoke pretty good Swedish), before going with a bunch of friends back to a post-thing in a flat off Newington Park Road.
I possibly should have gone straight home, but I felt that I had earned the night out (like that has ever stopped me before...)
Anyways, it is going to be a busy couple of days for me: writing the ETID review this afternoon, Impaled Nazarene and their Misogynistic Nationalist anthems tonight, writing the review of that tomorrow, finishing the AFI transcription tomorrow, polishing it Thursday and Friday (AFI show Thursday Night) and sending it off either Friday Night or Monday Morning.
And Monday I probably hear from Foyles. Fingers crossed again.
There is probably more fun waiting for me in my diary, or I'll see something else to add to the list from some other source.
But for now that's all I can think of.
I need a shower and a nap.
Over and out.
