To Norwich!
It's been decided, I'm getting out of this one horse town before I suffocate or something. Next week shall be spent in Norwich as of Sunday night. Thus my grand journey to Reading Festival come next Thursday shall begin in said city of love. Sounds like a plan to me.
As much as I love ye lil Fuckstowe I just can't bare your repetitive droneful existance anymore. Also means I get holiday pay! :D Getting paid for nothing is the kinda situation I could get used to.
It feels quite refreshing to get some things done like this, I have a problem where I just let things pile on top of each other and in the end they tower over me like a giant leaning tower of problem. Today was surprisingly productive, so I can take that away from it.
Finishing up Elley's birthday CD right now. Putting compilation CD's together is something I really enjoy. I love putting together sets of songs that convey messages and feelings and suit situations as you see fit. CD's for parties, CD's for driving, CD's for the pub, CD's for fun, CD's for love. I'm half tempted to burn the CD then record it to cassette half-arse-dly so you get that authentic clicking and fumbling between tracks. It adds so much more feeling to a recording. Speaking of which, a record I mentioned a while back by a band called Sleater-Kiney is recorded in a similar fashion and it adds an awesome atmosphere to the album. You just get the feeling their hanging out in a room with their gear and a tape deck and putting their tunes out there for you to take them as you like. I love it.
