The Queensland Music Awards were held last night. And the one thing I got from it was that if you want to be recognised by the local music industry, and prepare for national/international recognition, just peddle mediocre tunes that pander to the lowest possible denominator. YAWN.

Its funny how bands/artists who really work their pants off, touring every other weekend up and down the east...

poncy radio friendly ballads are THE best though.

Also, I'd probably not call the dick of mediocrity long. Perhaps...average ;P

Day two of training course.
So far its been pretty good (not to mention breezy).

I am really tired though. NO ENERGY.

I came up with a tattoo idea which I want to get done as soon as possible.
A portrait of my mum from a photo from a few years before I was born, while she was modelling. *if* I am remembering it properly,...

Some people say never to get a tattoo of a name or picture of anyone who's still alive; but there are a few who say parents your or your own children are an exception.

Cemetery gig may be back on my agenda after all.

This not knowing what is going on thing is just plain confusing!

Cemetery gig?

Ever get that 'OMG EXCITED!!' feeling that is underscored with doubt that the expectations will not come through?

I've got that right now.

Only because people, in general, are incredibly unreliable.

But that isn't going to stop me from being optimistic.

I'm listening to the album Jimmy Page did with The Black Crows.
I don't like it. The Black Crows singer murders Robert Plant's vocals....

If it's Chris Robinson you're talking about, I can well understand the sentiment. Sometimes I wonder about certain musicians choices in side projects. Just doesn't seem like the two styles would mesh well. Happily, I have been surprised by a few.

#Insomnia

After tossing and turning for the past 2 hours, I figure getting up is in order. Its only 430AM!!!!!!!

Seriously, I am getting REALLY sick of this.

Hopefully a friend will come through for me tonight so I can enjoy myself.

If not, I will just drink to oblivion and back.

Ninja gig in a graveyard tonight!!!

I've never been very good at sleeping and lately it seems I never can get enough.

Also a comment for your previous entry about taking care of your mum. I know exactly what you mean. When mine was dying from cancer, I walked to her house everyday to take care of her but not one of my siblings could be bothered to visit her daily until it was near the end.

Cheers, dropping the opacity is exactly what it needed.

Bad news: Phono pre-amp doesn't seem to do a thing.
And my insomnia is back. And my doctor thinks I am just scamming for drugs (which is silly, I only am interested in psychedelics, not sedatives)

The good news: My Cerulean Heart + Trip Sinister live today in a beautiful venue. I think I will catch a ferry to the Powerhouse. Boats are FUN

melluka:
how was your sleep?

Killing time waiting for afternoon to roll around (I'm *supposed* to be seeing Captain America with a friend, but she's notoriously unreliable, so we'll see) so put on season 1 of Frasier. My belly hurts from laughing so much.

We've had our shower head replaced and it is JUST like this. It is totally unacceptable.
gelth:
Kramer isn't in Frasier surreal

Captain America is awesome! Nerdy side went to overdrive, girly bits melted. Chris Evans *unnf*

Waking up and 'getting' such heavy concepts as nirvana, or The Night Of Pan as Crowley put it, is a really unsettling.
Understanding something enough to know that you MUST attain that and experience it is even more unsettling. In a good sense, though.

I have moments like that more often lately but not nearly as much as I used too.

Oh no, I've read Lost Souls about three times. I always come back to that book as it's one of my favourites. And thanks for the hug. smile

Whoever said fortune favours the bold should be stabbed in the throat with the stem of a wine glass.

In other news, my shower will apparently be fixed today, which is good, coz I *really* don't want to go out with two days worth of dirty tonight.

I signed up for a couple of training courses this morning. kinda refresher type things, I really don't...
