hello

so, i've worked out that blogging is actually a little on the boring side... i dont blame you people, i just cant really think of anything to write... so, like yous, i will just recount a few things that have happened lately:

- the adelaide tram line is gradually being extended: which will make it extend to the doorstep of my studio - already its at my front door. so, perfect. and i like trams. alot. not quite as much as trains though... though maybe i more...

- melbourne has new smoking laws. they stink (strangely more than when there is smoking). they're coming here soon. non-smokers are conformist cunts. go back to 1940's germany!!!

here's some records i've bought recently:

- can - delay 1968
- the velvets & nico
- lou reed and john cale - songs for drella
- neil young - on the beach
- the modern lovers

they are all brilliant - esp the can - cant believe i found it; they're so rare these days - even the re-issues!!

i'm going to try and borrow the following albums from secrets:

- guided by voices - bee thousand
- the zombies
- the stooges

i'll have to riffle through her stuff a little more too... she's bound to have some killer vinyl, she's got 3 crates and a washing basket full of the stuff... maybe more...

my brother just bought justice league for the ps2. its pretty good - wish you could be batman all the time - most of the others are lame jerks.

making large paintings is daunting but fun in a mindless hurt the back kinda way. this week i have to paint a fucking wall for 3 days straight though. at the jam factory. lame. i think i might use the cash to make some tombstones...
