Where Were You While We Were Getting High?


Post rock blues. That's what we're suffering from. *winks at Pong*

What a night that was. The gig was kinda crazy, but in all fairness, it wasn't really because of Oasis.

Their performance was really just alright. Firstly, the set was more or less predictable, word was out they'd do a cover of The Who, and they actually played Champagne Supernova right after Wonderwall. Somehow that just didn't work for me, two of their most hyped-about songs from arguably their best album back to back. And they weren't very entertaining on stage. But that's what Oasis are about, isn't it? Plenty of lan-lan attitude. All the photos in my camer (taken by Boon. not bad eh?) showed Liam in the same pose. So, no point posting them up.

To their credit, they played lots of their older songs, which were really why so many people became fans. They played mainly stuff from What's The Story Morning Glory? and even Definitely Maybe. All my favourites, such as Cigarettes And Alcohol, Acquiesce, Live Forever and Masterplan (the latter two being really heartfelt). We huddled closely and held ice cream hands during Don't Look Back In Anger. Pity though, they didn't play Supersonic or Roll With It. They should've just not played any of their new songs.

The crowd around us was very enthusiastic. The crowd in front of us was very tall. Anyhow, everyone was screaming along to every single word and jumping up and down. I even got punched in my left jaw by this dancing maniac of a guy beside me.

Found it rather odd also, that the last song (My Generation) was played with the audience lights turned up.

After the gig we all huddled around the table and watched the self-made porno clip starring the now famous NYP couple. How many people get to do that the first time they all go out? Haha. We rock.

The Masterplan!

You want to but she won't let you

I've been gone for the longest time Billy Joel would be so proud of me. Been busy busy busy!

Now i shall put up this public service announcement and warn you all about delivery services. Beware, folks, when you're lazy and wanna have your meals sent to your doorstep.

Once i ordered a Fillet-O-Fish from you-know-where, it came without cheese! And then the other time we upsized the meal but the fries in there were only half-full. (Trust me to still be an optimist in a situation like this) Nobody cheats me when it comes to fries!

And then the people at Canadian Pizza also deserve some mention. They managed to burn a pizza and a shepherd's pie and still send them to me. I called them back to complain, and they actually said they couldn't replace my pizza cos we had already eaten 3 slices. Come on, what were we to do? We were so fucking starved, having waited nearly an hour. As for my shepherd's pie, they said they'd replace it, and the delivery man came after yet another hour.

So if you order food, be sure open it up and inspect it thoroughly, in the delivery man's face!

Last week at the Franz Ferdinand gig, i got my mind blown away even before the band came out. At the door, i was so amazed at all the different kinds of people who were there. In that condition, everything was mind blowing and amazing. But there was this lady who looked 30-something, wore a white blouse and grey knee-length skirt, completing the look with a pair of plastic frame specs. Like i told Ann, that lady looked just like a librarian from 1991! And she was there to groove along to FF. Speaking of which, i'd die to see another FF in action. Foo Fighters of course.

And come tomorrow, you will find me caught beneath the landslide!
