It's dangerous, you know.
Now that i've calmed down enough to return to a semblance of coherency, I'll talk. I'll talk I tells ya!
Patrick Wolf was GODDAMN EXCELLENT. The shit he managed to pull off using just himself, a piano, a violin and two ukeleles is quite astounding! Not only did he play musics, he bantered with us a lot. He gave lengthy (relatively) intros and outros to the songs. He let us pick! He felt bad for turning up in Australia so late, so he had a songlist and asked us for requests. He then proceeded to play songs that weren't even on the list! Like the excellent Tristan, using just him and a piano, though the album cut distinctly features cowbells. Where are my cowbells damnit! He's such a nice kid as well. Plus he *cough* shaved his legs *cough* as well. Hawt.
And once again, I'm left bewildered about the vagaries of production. His voice really is quite good; and yet, this is not easily apparent on the album. Admittedly, I do like his beats and melodies and such, but his vocal capabilities are rather more impressive.
The concert was sooo good, it was like sex. Except i'm having it.
Old joke.
It was quite so great, I had to pin myself (okay, more like give in to inertia and not move from my bed) so I wouldn't go and buy tickets for the next day. That was why Saturday was fun! I managed to stay in bed the entire day! So proud of me. A good 18? 20? hours of lying in bed. I didn't even read or nothing. My parents didn't do anything! So glad. Well, they did, but that was much later and I didn't mind as much.
It's been something I've wanting to do for a while, but i've finally managed to, and I is proud of myself.
I'm going to only do three units this sem methinks. I'm 'deferring' a sem, by doing 4 sems of 3 units each. Ingenious no? I only realised this recently, I should have done this from the beginning! That way, I would have got to 'defer' a year, plus have an actual year of deferment! Oh the fallacies of youth.
