Music.

We don't talk about music a lot here, but I thought I would mention that one of my favourite Melbourne Labels Mistletone is having a sale at their online shop, all Cd's are only $15 and that includes postage, it seems really great to me, I'm going to place an order soon!

Mr. Byrne!

I just came home from seeing David Byrne play at Hamer Hall, the mood in the room was good, Byrne's lyrics were really fitting with our current situation. He only played songs that involved Brian Eno, especially songs from their new album, which is quite amazing. The whole band was wearing white, there were back up dancers and back up singers and one of the dancers jumped over David's head, and he danced too or grooved really, definitely some feet action. At the end of the show the Arts centre staff were collecting money for the red cross, some really full buckets was very nice to see!

P.s He looked exactly like the picture, except his hair was whiter, I swear!

Mr Cohen!

The other night I saw Leonard Cohen play, and it was amazing, I mean really really special. Seeing Leonard Cohen play has always been a dream of mine, and I was quite excited to actually see it happen, he played all his amazing songs for a set that seemed like it would never end. I'm still happy just thinking about it, that's the best part really. He look exactly like the above photo, and jumped on and off stage with such enthusiasm, he's great I wish I could see it all again.

This is...My Favourite Band!

Sigur Ros would definitely have to be one of my favourite bands. While I have trouble committing to one band as my favourite band for a lifetime, I have no trouble expressing my love for Sigur Ros, for a myriad of reasons. They create some of the most beautiful music I have heard, it really takes you off to somewhere really lovely. They also create the nicest film clips I have seen in a long time, and they play the most amazing live shows, complete with marching bands and falling confetti. I would love to share some of my favourite film clips but still have not mastered the You Tube sharing technique. Instead here is a link to one of my favourite songs. You could also visit their myspace if you wanted to listen to some more, i really recommend that you do. 

Thanks to Curly Pops for a great theme this week.
