In which I am a groupie
If you’re a follower of this blog, you would know that I went to Sydney last week to see NIN, QOTSA, Brody Dalle and Sweethead and it was amazing. Last night, on the spur of the moment my other plans having fallen through, I decided to go again. This time in Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena,…

Epic Night of Epicness – A Review
Featuring: Nine Inch Nails, Queens of the Stone Age, Brody Dalle and Sweethead. It’s Thursday 6 March, 2014. The day starts with me getting up at 6am. I stumble around in the dark (yeah it’s dark then, who knew?), get all my shit in order and head out the door of my house at about…

Watching Movies: Bloody Shakespeare
Ok, so I should probably admit right off that this only barely counts as a movie; it was the National Theatre Live’s recording of ‘Coriolanus‘. This was staged as a play in the Donmar Warehouse in London, filmed, and shown at the Nova. ‘Coriolanus’ is one of Shakespeare’s lesser known plays, and is a political…

The Nymphs and White Night
I meant to do this post earlier, and I’m going to try to keep this short and sweet. Saturday 22 February 2014 was epic. Not only was it White Night Festival in Melbourne but it was The Nymphs first album launch. White Night is a festival held over 12 hours, 7pm to 7am, in the…

Watching Movies: Flickerfest
I don’t know about you, but I enter competitions for things under the assumption that I’ll never win. That assumption has been severely challenged the last week as I’ve won movie passes twice! One is for Dallas Buyers Club (so I’ll be reviewing that in the next week or so, yay!) and the other was…

St Kilda Festival 2014
Yesterday afternoon I braved the harsh summer sun to wander around St Kilda and soak up some of the festival good times. The St Kilda Festival is a free annual event which runs for a bit over a week and culminates in Festival Sunday (yesterday). There is free live music, and rides, and stuff, and…

Happy 2014!
Welcome to 2014! Like many of you, I spent last night out and about welcoming in the New Year. I decided at the last minute to join a group of people on the roof of a bar in Windsor, Melbourne, called Mother’s Milk. The group was one that I’m part of through Meetup, so I’d…

The time I discovered poetry videos on the internet
I spend more time than I would like trying to forget that I’m unsatisfied with where I am right now. Some of that is when I’m at home, alone, trying to find inspiration or meaning or rest. Some of it is when I should be working but I can’t bring myself to do it because…

New Year’s Resolutions: how did I go?
So, it’s getting to towards the end of the year and I’ve been thinking about what I hoped to achieve at the start of this year and thought I’d go through a bit of a performance assessment of my own ability to achieve my New Years’ Resolutions for 2013. For those of you who need…

Dear Universe
Over the last few weeks I’ve been thinking about what I want out of life; what I would like to have in order to feel really, truly happy. I have a few things in mind that I think will help so I’ve decided to write them down and ask the universe to bring them to…
