Ruins

I guess it's been a decent amount of time since I updated, so I thought I probably should post something. 

Life has actually been pretty great the past couple of weeks. I meant to make a post last week about my mid semester break, but it never happened. I spent my week off seeing Shipwreck 4 times. It was fucking rad. I got to hang out with rad dudes I don't see as much as I'd like, go to Byron Bay, drive a lot haha, eat rad vegetarian chinese after a show etc. Probably one of the best bands/tours I have ever seen. Shipwreck being heavy as fuck, Ceremony being mental, new Carpathian being pretty rad. Kids's being decently siked. I wish more people had of been into Shipwreck but what can you do. I hope they impressed a lot of people at least. 

I had my birthday during the holidays too. I hung out during the day, did some shit around the house, did some uni work, mates came round during the arvo and we hung out then went out to dinner on the gold coast. It was rad. I even got ice cream afterwards and bought a porno at a servo with a chick I went to school with on the front cover haha. Good life. 

Last week was alright, a lot of uni work and work work happened but I managed to go to a rad show around that and that was cool. The Gifthorse, a band I've now forgotten and another Brisbane band named In Sepia. In Sepia were a 90's emo band kinda like Mineral or something like that, I only saw a few songs of the band I've now forgotten and they were alright too and the Gifthorse rule. Rad melodic emo/punk, they even play a Samiam cover! So many rad dudes were at that show, Scrad, Luke RVK, Ryan Sim, Nick Taco, etc. etc. The list goes on.

Turns out I didn't end up getting a referral to see a psychologist like I mentioned in the last blog post. I guess a combination of having a decent week and really being too pussy to bring it up with the doctor let to that, but I think I made the right call for now. I have another referral to see a hearing specialist now, I just gotta work up the guts to actually make the call. Closure can be pretty fucking scary I guess.

I've been listening to Rise and Fall a lot tonight, so I've decided to put the Rise and Fall interview I did for Gb#3 on here, expect it up very soon.
