GIG!!

Easter is here...together with copious amounts of chocolates and the long-awaited holidays.

To kick off the festive season, there was the The Beautiful Girls gig at Manning Bar. why didn't anyone tell me that live music is so SO much better than listening to it out of your mediaplayer or yp-f1 (i don't have an iPod, unless someone is to be so kind..)??

two words: THEY ROCKED.


Eunice, fellow marine-biologist.


Forgive the grainy picture...no flash and no stabiliser..


Live rendition of Lamar (The Ocean)...it was the best thing ever...evereverever...it transported me back to a time and place where assignments and deadlines were far from thought.

which is funny..because they're more of a groovy sorta band than a rock band..

later we jimmied over to the 3wisemonkeys..couldn't find Sam et al, was running up and around the top level of the bar..got accosted by so many drunk men..disgusting..i ran away. found them eventually and we hopped on over to..

somewhere.

the next morning...Good Friday didn't seem so good after all..slept at 4 woke up at 9..kneeled through the whole 13 Stations of the Cross. did some repenting and soul-searching. ended up trying to be a photographic genius.

failed miserably.


Inner sanctum of the cathedral of St Mary...peacecalmsolitude was what i needed then.



Finis. Truly.
