I feel rotten, really ill, don't know why and its just come on really badly last night + today. I watched 'Dark Habits' today, the almodovar film, which was really good, there was this one bit where mother superior held a party and the party was amazing, like my DREAM party. I really think parties are the best things ever.
Tour was so good, I can't remember if I wrote ab out it, but it was wonderful meeting so many amazing people still totally active in the d.i.yladyfestish//queer feminist kind of scene, it was sooo good, nearlyall our shows were put on by likeminded people and it felt totally fantastic and empowering playing in such an environment, that pretty much encompasses all I believe in. It was funny because every house we stayed in had reoccurring similarities - certain books (d.i.y; the rise of lofi culture, manifesta, riot grrrl book to name buta few) records (ones I noticed that most people had that I am desperate for - the fakes real fiction lp + cupid car club 7" + phranc + viva knievel!) + a lot of moomin cups!
the day after we got home we wrote a new song which is good and short and its mainly good because flo and ted both sing on it and ted forgot the whole tour to sing. I can't wait til next weekend when we play the slamptrospective...I still feel so honoured to be asked to play.
back to reality working in exeter and getting drunk is boring/. I have to go back to school next week and feel sick about it, its so boring but I guess its only a few months. Im doing my dissertation on women, creativity and self destruction, obviously that is the vague topic and not the actual question but is something I feel very important on a personal level. especially since being in a band I feel like I have finally found some way of working stuff through in my head, which has helped me no end and I think its enabled me to channel stuff, without sounding ridiculous.
