    95
    I've just got home from seeing HDU. The first time I saw HDU was at the Empire in Dunedin in 95. It cost $3 to get in, there only about 10 people there, and the gig was unsurpassable. i went off them a bit over the years as their sound changed and they got a bit mellower. Anyhoo, it's been a few years since I last saw them so when I saw they were playing here tonight i decided to go along even though the door charge was $27. Í'm real nostalgic for NZ music of that period at the moment so I really wanted it to be good, but really I'd be hard pressed to say the gig was anymore than OK. There were moments when it was sweet but overall? The bass player insisting on tuning his bass between every song? Come on, get a decent bass chump! And the drummer? What the fuck's up with all the dumb 'I wanna be a disco drummer' beats? Tristan was on fairly decent form. Only one song from the early days when they were good. For that brief moment, it was almost as good as being back at the Empire in 95, great days...
    Other than that, today I finally got round to getting my Learner's Drivers license.
    I also got me a Django Reinhardt record & a Perez Prado record:)

    Sniffles.
    This morning I'm rediscovering the joys of GG Allin after a few years' absence. For a while there back in Dunedin it seemed like you couldn't go round to anyone's place or go to any parties without GG rockin'and it got to the point of over exposure. And then there was the GG tribute album a friend of mine put out a few years ago that i recorded some songs for. Anyhoo, I bumped into him again this morning on a random mix cd I put in the player and it was good to hear him sounding nice and fresh again. Classic, vintage GG, pre prison stay and before his voice got all fucked up.
    So I'm sitting around after another week on the new job and I have my first cold of the winter. It's just entering that yucky stage.
    My job is quite challenging, mainly to my sense of morals and ethics. I don't know whether this job is gonna be longterm or not. I enjoy approving shit so people can have surgery and stuff, but I hate declining people. That shit sucks.
    Soon I shall be startingmy psych study so that'll be cool.
    Nex weekend I might be biting the bullet and finally getting my learners license...

    Current Mood: sick
    Current Music: GG Allin - Needle Up My Cock

    The task this weekend was to start sifting through hundreds of digital photos to work out what to print. What a ballbreak. So many subpar or funny angled photos! So glad I didn't take them all on a film camera...
    Looking forward to getting the prints out when it's all down though. Looking at pics on a poooter screen just isn't the same as having a hard pic I reckon.
    I got all my stuff out of storage this weekend including all my old pics which are are all water/moisture damaged... Sigh...
    Training for my new job is finished now so today I start my frst week on the job proper, let's see how bad I fuck up...
