Withnail and I
I watched "Withnail & I" last night, I hadn't seen it since Napoli, I 'd almost forgotten how hysterical it is. It just goes to show that holidays are not always a good thing, unless you like fishing with a riffle. It certainly highlights all the 'pros' to alchoholism and insanity.
Next time I'm out at the pub (and in a hurry) I will certainly be using the line "We'll have to work fast, bartender, a couple of quadruple whiskies and another pair of pints". Certainly one of the finer new additions to my DVD collection. I wouldn't however recommend the "Withnail & I drinking game", namely drinking what Withnail drinks when he drinks it... Roughly 9 ½ glasses of red wine, half a pint of cider, 1 shot of lighter fluid, 2 ½ shots of gin, 6 glasses of sherry, 13 glasses of whisky and half a pint of ale. Since the whisky alone would be more than enough to necessitate a trip to hospital for most people, few, if any, keep pace for the entire film.

What a weekend
Wow, so Friday night I went and saw 'Laura' (Caz, my Cellist's other band) at their album launch, great gig. Saturday Fi & I and Dave & Alita drove to Ocean Grove to see Tom and his holiday home down on the beach. It was an arvo spent sitting on the beach with a beer kickin' the footy around. It was after 3am we crashed out after all the girls became addicted to Poker. Beginners luck I say!. Sunday arvo we all drove back and I played the first of 2 gigs with Lyndon, it was a really relaxed Sunday evening gig, I think we were all pretty pooped from too much running around on the beach... and perhaps the booze too.

Hope from Hope
Hey, check this out, Hope Sandoval is the singer from 'Mazzy Star', she has posted a review of our new single "Were you listening?" on the JJJ Unearthed competition. Coooool !
Rating: 5/5
“Finally a track that sounds like it should be unearthed. From the sparse intro from which this track begins-to the build of lush instrumentation as it kicks in; before one of the most gorgeous sounding female voices I have heard in a long time sets the lovely-yet quite melancholy tone of the track. ‘Were you listening’ really pulled at the heart strings as it builds to a final; quite understated but cinematic conclusion. Would be perfect on a movie soundtrack. Should be hearing more from these guys soon!”
