Poor start

Well after all my talk it looks like this has been just as succesful as my other attempted starts. Ah well, this is post number 2 and I've never even gotten that far before so I guess it isn't a total loss. It was an interesting weekend. On friday myself and some friends went a to see Lifted Sessions in the Rockhouse here in Salzburg. A very good night all round. State of Mind, Axiom, Chris Renegade and Spor played. Heavy DnB with a second floor playing dubstep. Ended up jogging home from town at 6am trying to beat the sunrise to my favourite bridge. Well long story short, I beat it easily, and after an hour of sitting in the freezing dawn cold I decided to head on home. It never occured to me that sunrise time gets delayed by a few hours when there's an Alp in the way. Either way a fun night.

Then on Saturday I went along to launch of Katapher's first CD. I'm friends with the band but I had never heard them live before. They put together a solid show and really impressed me. Their style lies somewhere between Foals and The Mars Volta. Keep an eye out for them, if they decide to push it they could go far.

Looking back on what I've just written I feel like that may be the most boring thing I've ever thrown out. Ah well I just needed to get some words down.

Baby-steps

It's about 18 years since I took my first steps (there or there abouts). Right now though I feel like I'm taking them all over again. I've tried starting this kinda thing before but it was always with a different purpose in mind. I dreamt of starting a hip-ass music blog for a while, get famous on the web for my in-depth knowledge and insightful taste in music. But I was always too lazy 1. to bother posting, ever, and 2. to actually stay far enough ahead of the pack to get any attention. Then I tried making one based on my writings, like actual fiction and deeper thoughts, but again laziness got in the way. So now, third time around, I'm going to try and make one just about my travels and little different bits and bobs that might be of interest to someone somewhere. In a way I guess this is like an online diary.. maybe journal would be a better term. So I guess if I ever tell you about this it means I trust you enough to read whatever I have to say without being a dick about it. Maybe I'm being paranoid or immature but thats just what I'm thinking right now. Anyway, I'm gonna try post every sunday, starting this one coming.
