It’s been a bit quiet here in blogland. Work has been relentless and the internet was cut off at home after the greedy corporate bastards at Telstra delivered a $3000 bill. After i was so nice as to be their poster child for photoblogging. Fuckers.
But onwards. Here’s some photos from the Levity Records christmas party at Oxford Art Factory (where else?) last Friday. Levity’s two bands Mercy Arms and Cut Off Your Hands were due to play, but unfortunately Cut Off Your Hands had to cancel after lead singer Nick broke his ankle jumping from a speaker stack onstage in London. Bummer.
In their place The Scare played who, like Cut Off Your Hands, have an unpredictable and wild stage show, with lead singer Kiss spending much of the set in the crowd getting in scrapes. Andrew G loved it.
My social shots plus the odd band photo can be seen in the Levity party photo gallery.
Haha I love the cross reference to Andrew G
He’s right the Scare are super awesome live, he’s got his finger on the music pulse that one eh!
I wouldn’t go as far as Andrew’s assumption that they’re on their way to “drug and alcohol fuelled destruction” their off stage personas are very very different to their on stage antics. They like the boozamahol as much as the next man but they are very focused young men finally getting the recognition they deserve in the UK if not in their home land, go the Scare!
I’d say Kiss (the singer) is more like Nick Cave cThe Birthday Party era?
So have you and Andrew G kissed yet? Or are you still in that awkward stage where neither of you want to make the first move?
xx your favourite sister
Whoa, what’s with that girls spray on clothes.. Tightest jeans I’ve ever seen..haha..
I’m a get all geeky on yer ass, but… considered shifting your internet to a more reliable provider who won’t charge you an arm and a leg for going over your limit?
I recommend iinet, possibly a naked DSL plan. You go over your limit and they throttle you to 72kbps until your month resets. Very bearable.
Adam – yes, i have considered not using Telstra. But we share a connection with out neighbours, and neither of us have or want a phone line. Telstra seemed to be the only company that would do fast internet via cable, without needing to pay line rental.
