The Japanese bluesgrass busker on Bourke St held a fundraiser for Japan on the weekend and I went. He'd teamed up with a Shamisen player and it was a fun night. I'd never seen a Shamisen played like an electric guitar :P All the bluesgrass music made me nostalgic for Cowboy Bebop :)
Randomly went to the Belgian Beer Garden down at southbank and it was fun. Sat around talking and drinking cider...a good time was had.
Went to another MIFF member screening, and saw some old MIFF buddies which is always good. The movie was "Never Let Me Go"...a very servicable british tragic romance. Notable for Carey Mulligan who is just awesome as always, and getting to see Andrew Garfield act before the new Spiderman comes out. He was alright, but if you want to see Andrew Garfield looking a lot more cooler and better dressed, I recommend the Social Network. :)
Went and had dinner at "After the Tears", a Vodka bar which was really nice. I had some awesome vodka, so awesome in fact that I had to mass spam people to share the love. It's called siwucha and if you ever see it, give it a shot. It's super smooth and has no burn.
In other news, goulash definitely does not agree with my stomach :(
