circa now!

Broken branch on the family tree.

Uh……..yeaaaah.

Hey gang

We had a really shit gig the other night at the Towny, and apologise to anyone who attended. The only shining lite was the introduction of our new tune "Fuck off". I thought that the K'road Queens were really cool too. I took some snaps of them, which I'll post on Flickr tomorrow. Went to see MYC, A Death in the Family (also more snaps), and Angry Kid on Friday night for the Arthouse's 15th Birthday (Happy birthday guy's). The Arthouse has been the backbone of the underground music scene in Melbourne for a long time, and Marie, Peter and Mel should be really proud of what the Arthouse has done in those 15 years, and for what the place means to so many people. It is, a very special place. So to Marie and Pete and their family I say, Thank you. Schottky Noise played there last night, for what will most probably be our last show with Lee, before he makes the idiotic move to Perth. I'm really, really really gonna miss Lee, he's one of coolest, funny, most genuine people I've ever met through playing music. I hope he comes to his senses, and comes home soon. Also had a fucking car accident last night on the way home. Some ass clown turned right in front of me on the Errol/Queensbury St intersection. So the front end of the wagon is a little fucked up at the moment. Hopefully the guy wont try and wriggle out of his responsibility for the accident, and his insurance company and my insurance company, will sort it out quickly and with little fuss. I can really recommend

Later

R.I.P. Fidal Gastro

Ok…here's the deal.

I'm getting rid of my ill-conceived and mis-spelled food critic alter ego, Fidal Gastro. It was just a pain in the arse keeping him going, So from now on I'm just gonna talk about food here. The joke got to old too quick for me. So expect to hear me banging on to no end about food, food, and more food.

While we're talking about food. Mag's Carey took Craig and I to an Ice cream joint in Bay St, Port Melbourne (just near Grandma's) called Gelati Sky. Man….this place is pumping out some serious iced quality. With lots of exotic flavours to choose from, such as Peanut butter, coco lime, tim tam, pina colada…plus all your old faves, it wont leave you wanting for choice. I got the "double cone", one scoop peanut butter, one scoop coco lime….which is just coconut flavour. Both were awesome. It's a bit…..no….it's fucking pricey, but it's hella good ice cream. $3.80 will get you a double cone with 2 flavours. You can get expensive take home tubs at $8.50 for half a litre(2 flavours), and $15.00…..(fuck me) for 1 litre (3 flavours).

And while were still talking food…….The Rajah of India in North Melbourne (king st), one of Melbourne's best, has recently changed hands. The name has also changed to "Le Taj", which is "Le Gay". I've only sampled the chicken makhani take away lunch pack, but it did seem to be like the new owners claim, "…a step up in quality". The Veg pakoras seemed to have improved as well. I'm sure C$ and I will put them through their paces in the next few months.

Rock, Beer and Bangers.

The CD launch at the Tote last night was awesome, props to everyone who came down. The eating contest was a pisser. Xavier took it out easily, with Liam in second and Willy third. Micky V would have got third, put he went to hard on his last three snags and puked. I'll post some pics on my flickr page tomorrow. Thanks to PussyXXX, Dr Invisiablo, and Bakerlight Age for supporting……..ooooh and Culki too, she was awesome!
