Don't touch the brown acid people.

About Me

I'm 20 years old. I live in Melbourne and have done so for the last 10 years and it's my favourite place in the world. I love music. I love listening to it, watching people play it live, playing it on instruments, and lately writing it (albeit not very well). It's my dream to become a musician/singer/songwriter. More realistically, I have no idea what to do with my life.

My Interests

Music - the listening to and watching and making of, Food - the making and consuming of, Travel, Writing, Art, Dancing, Laughing.

I'd like to meet:

Franz Ferdinand (again). I'd like to sit down with Alex to a nice meal and some good conversation. Neil Finn, I'd ask him for some pointers about the guitar. Or I'd just kowtow and make a fool of myself.

If you share my interests, are broadminded and can broaden my horizons or you can make me laugh or think, then I'd like to meet you too.

I wouldn't like to meet:

snobs of any kind (ie: 'What!? You don't think that Smile by Brian Wilson is the greatest album of all time? And you actually listen to some top 40 hits? Oh, go away you pathetic pleb and leave me to my obscure and tuneless esperimental soundscapes.'), people who are hardxcore and think Sum 41 are lyk the rockingest band around, pEoPlE wHo TyPe LiKe ThIs (you've got WAY too much time on your hands. Get laid already!).

Music:

My favourites only, alphabetically: Lily Allen, The Arcade Fire, The Beatles, Sarah Blasko, Crowded House, End of Fashion, The Fiery Furnaces, Finn Brothers, Neil Finn, Tim Finn, Franz Ferdinand, The Grates, Missy Higgins, Jebediah, Kaiser Chiefs, Bic Runga, Split Enz, The Whitlams

Hey Guys

I haven't blogged for a while. Well, I have, but it's been on my non myspace blog - I don't really use this one. But I figure I'll do one just to keep the four of you who read it happy. I joined a ban...

I got stoned for the first time on Wednesday night. We made hash brownies the weekend before but never really got round to eating them, so we had them for dessert one night. I was pretty much just cur...
