It's amazing that the slightest comment someone says can piss you off so much, like, incredibly. Feeling pretty naff this afternoon, to say yesterday I was proper buzzing from the good weekend. Brainwash festival was a really good effort. Saw some awful bands & some awesome ones. HEALTH were phenomenal, melt banana, the plight, dolphins, black moth, blacklisters, dosh were all really really good too. Humanfly weren't at their best. Chickenhawk sound better on CD.
Disapointed with the shining. Was it dumb of me to be expecting the old black metal outfit!? Instead we was greeted with a group that looked like Rammstein, and sounded like Mindless Self Indulgence. It was disgusting. Avant-garde jazz nu metal tripe. Avant Garde is french for bullshit hah.
Off to see Eagle Twin, Pombagira and local lads Normal Man tomorrow. Looking forward to Pombagira equally as much as eagle twin now, purely based on the equipment they use. 2 people playing through 7 cabs, 1970s Sunn amps, it's gonna be amazing.
I think me and Cara are going to Constellations Festival in november too; Broken Social Scene, Four Tet, Liars... should be alright. It's been good seeing more of Cusic recently, had a proper good catch up with him and been to a couple of gigs/nights out with him.
Can't wait to get my speakers wired in. Need to tidy my room big style. I need a new room in a new house, but that's not the point.
