I went to Halves in Whelans - they were absolutely brilliant. I was so impressed. Really great. I’ve run out of superlatives.
Hope you had a good weekend - what did you end up seeing?

Ah, I knew that Halves gig was going to be mindblowing! I really wanted to get along, especially to get one of those bags! I love their products, the Revenge EP is beautifully packaged…
And busy? No.
I got to Tracer/ASIWYFA on Friday. They were amaaaazing, expect photo-plethora soon! Resulting post-rock madness ( I mean post-gig) scuppered all other plans for the weekend. *groans* Don’t ask. Just…don’t.

Leigh : curiosity killed the cat..or stripped it of its clothing, threw it down some stairs and stuck it in a microwave.
Cormac: right you are. I seem to make these gaffes with frightening regularity. Boo.
Yay Halves though, by all accounts I hear it was a fabulous gig. RoJo at http://thisredbook.wordpress.com should have some vids up soon.
Shane, shame! Hope it was a good gig? How were HRA?

Em, if soon means ‘hopefully some time before summer ends’, then yes. Also, if they let me put up the song I want to… It’s from the tower instore.
(I was wondering where the sudden increase in blog views came from).
