TO MOLLIFY LINGJACKSON OVERDRIVEBERT WHO IS THE SQUEAKY DESERT FIEND, POST ON THIS THREAD AND ONE OF YOUR FRIENDLY ITR MODS WILL TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE WICKED AWESOME, AND POSSIBLY OFFER AN EFFUSIVE ST

Arrived too late for 65dos. Cure = fantastic three hour show, everyone in excellent form, still one of the greatest bands ever.

Mon Dieu! Six hours! Truly a title of magical proportions.

So, I was walking down the street to my favorite local thea-tre, and a woman stopped me to ask if I would model for her Anne Rice-inspired photographs.

Hey, fifty bucks for an hour or two pretending to be a vampire is fifty bucks, right?!?!

oh dear.

xpost, then.

Are we talking Anne Rice or ANNE ROQUALAIRE?!

Dear lord, I loathe morning. And insomnia. And knowing I'm coming home tonight to be faced with writing 30 pages before Tuesday. (Nursing school shouldn't be quiiiiiiite so much like NaNoWriMo for grades...)

xposts to Ned: As I'd hope!

BTW, Dan, I know you got "Freakshow" (we did too, rah) but if you didn't get "Baby Rag Dog Book" at your show, you were WAY missing out.

We got "Sleep When I'm Dead", "The Only One" and "Freakshow".

sorry big.

no, just gaudy

lol. i think it is awesome.
also, pls to listen to jergins re: that poll.

Yay awesome.

We got "Sleep When I'm Dead", "The Only One" and "Freakshow".

Okay, seriously on "Baby Rag Dog Book," that's the one that will make your jaw drop. How can I put it -- it is to them what "Machine Gun" is to Portishead (not so much in terms of reinvention as in terms of loud aggro rigorous FUCK YOU). We also got "Underneath the Stars" as an opener (very nice) and "The Perfect Boy," plus the three you list.

thanks tehresa.

also, AWESOME POSTCARD THANKS. you went to Sonar, yeah? o how i wish i could of gone herc+love affair and villalobos and dozens more. man.

Sonar's in three weeks time - this was Primavera Sound. Such a great weekend; as late as each night went I could quite happily have kept going for another couple of nights. Musically, far and away the best and most interesting line-up I've ever experienced at a festival with some stunning rock, pop, indie and electro and dance performances. My ears may still be bleeding a little bit from Fuck Buttons.

I shall now go and attempt to transform myself from someone who looks and smells like he has spent the last four nights "having it" til dawn and then sleeping for a few hours at a time on the beach (forgot my tent - oops), into one who may perhaps make it to work tomorrow.

HErcules and Love Affair are wicked awesome live btw - playeed their first UK dates t'other week.

can't wait to see them

WHOA @ that lineup

postcard WOW brilliant!

aww fanks you guyz.

Primavera forum has(had?) a sweet ysi forum i recall.

Okay, so, I have taken a nap and I'm still having trouble understanding this thread. Exhaustion is not very funny.

BUT one huge paper and I'm done for the summer.*

*not including meetings with profs, whatever else I might not know about

(yes, I am also still so out of it that it took me 6 minutes to remember my asterisk. This paper is going to be hilarious.)

somebody translate

a three bar rinnai heater

for me plz

I wish I could help you, but I'm almost not grasping one syllable words right now.

Sleep well, ITR. Tomorrow I will complain to you many times about the thousands of words I must produce by Tuesday. (apologies in advance...)

yeah no clue. what time does nz/aus get up?

It is 3:20pm here atm.

I also don't know what three bar rinnai heater specifically means.

rinnai is a brand i guess

thankfully we don't need cheap scotch explained to us

it could mean one of those big long heaters with the three tubes that heat like glowing rods. i think.

inspired by our discussion some time ago, i have dug out my two enya albums and imported them into itunes. she shall lull me to sleep tonight.

i forgot to tell you guys about the totally embarrassing thing that happened to me on saturday night:

the restaurant i work at is small and overcrowded so i'm squeezing btw tables. i was in a hurry and i got my apron strings caught round the handle of a 2.5 litre glass water jug that was sitting on the edge of table behind me and managed to send half of it cascading down the back of my legs, into my shoes and all over the floor. and the jug was still hanging off the back of my apron.

Wow, that's just...beautiful.

RR - oh dear... Working in wet shoes and pants = not the most fun. And yet your description is so awesome. Somehow the "most embarrassing" stories are usually the best ones.

HELLO

didn't die.

I did!

ha! later tonight i will start posting some of the 50 odd drunk text messages i sent to peoples on friday o_l0l_o

it is true that i slept in my suit in a backyard for a while

just so that when that becomes common knowledge or a picture surfaces you guys all got it straight from the source

drunk texting thread on the sandbox if you are so inclined

"an important archive" says lxy so there's that, posterity

it is awesome you slept in a suit. did you get grass stains?

Oh yeah, glad you had a fun trip, John!

Of course now I'm bitter that I have not ever received a drunk text message from anyone, but I'm sure I'll get over it eventually. ;_;

no grass stains, but i did get dewy, which woke me up

unless it rained

or the neighborhood raccon family peed on me

I sense a trip to the dry cleaner in your near future.

you give me too much credit

Sara: YOU NEVER GET OVER IT

PS John, how was Sex and the City?
