I did end up going to the Assemblage 23 gig. I figured what the Hell, with the new job I can afford to take a punt ( Read more... )

Okay, I'm planning on wandering along to Sekt this evening. I know neefsck is planning a similar foray, but what about anyone else?

It's been quite some time since I've bothered to venture out to Club Land, for a variety of reasons. Tonight, though, I'm very seriously contemplating heading off to Sekt. I went to their NYE thing at the start of the year and quite enjoyed myself. Monthly clubs tend not to pall as rapidly as weekly ones.

I didn't, unfortunately, make it to tyggerjai's ( Read more... )

Last night I wandered off to a little bar called Lambs Go Bar for the birthday of an old friend, Jody. It's a nice little venue, quite relaxed and certainly conducive to catching up with a number of friends I hadn't seen in ages.

I spent a bit of time talking up Shantaram to all and sundry, even though I'm only half way through it (well, a little ( Read more... )

I've just returned from a very pleasant evening spent at the Supper Club with Jo, imajica_lj and neefsck celebrating the 35th anniversary of the beginning of The End of Dick Nixon. There was tokay, port, a little whiskey and, of course, cuban cigars. Followed by some much needed coffee.

Decent conversation and seeing old friends was, of course, the best part.

I will be DJ-ing at Nemesis tonight, sometime after the witching hour.

I know some of you are already planning to run off to Revelations for neefsck's set and I know some of you can't make either for other reasons. The rest of you can get your arses along to the Coronial for mine.

I wandered out again late last night, I needed distraction. As it happened, the club I'd meant to go to was closed, so I resorted to Old Faithful (DV8) even though it often devolves to being more like Old Yellow. Not so last night; wendorama was playing a very entertaining set which, even though I didn't drag myself onto the dance floor much, kept me more ( Read more... )

Nemesis was fun, the huge break in playing anywhere has resulted in my interest in it has returned somewhat. So there's the definite possibility of a repeat performance at some point in the future ( Read more... )

This Friday night I will be dusting off the DJ cases for Nemesis as part of the tribute and fundraising for AvelineWith the exception of a few tracks on Saturday at the wake, I haven't done this in a while and may be a little rusty, but that's certainly no reason not to do it. Proceeds from Friday's gig, the profit from the club and whatever ( Read more... )

I've had quite an enjoyable little birthday celebration. A few hours at Polly with friends, followed by a brief respite from the hustle and the bustle, then a few hours more with a small contingent at Nemesis.

Much to my surprise a dear friend brought me a present of one of my favourite films on DVD, The Lion In Winter, which she'd recently ( Read more... )
