The Garden of Unearthly Delights

So I went to the Garden of Unearthly Delights last night with my friend Renee who I hadn't caught up with in forever. It was a really fun night. First time I'd really gone out and had some fun in a long while.

We primarily went to see this cool Jazz-y band called the Barons of Tang, but we had a bit of a wander around aswell (plus the gig started an hour late). The band was pretty awesome - they were a mix of jazz and some sort if quirky gypsy stuff. And it was at this gig that we realised there are some really retarded dancers.

But the music was great. They were a five-piece band comprising of drums, guitar, double bass, accordian and sax/clarinet. Something that caught me off-guard part way through was that some of the time the lead singer would scream the lyrics. It didn't ruin the experience or anything, just sorta suprised me.

Another highlight of mine was that I'd found out that a question that I'd sent in to IGN's Game Scoop podcast a few weeks ago had gotten read out on yesterday's episode. I won't repeat it here but if you listen to Game Scoop, just listen out for my name.

Anywho... Uni starts up again soon. I'm sort of looking forward to it and sort of not. I'm more looking forward to seeing the people and not the heap of work that's coming.
