Good luck with the tat.

Yeah I'm going to see some more stuff, I was just really shitty when I found out I couldn't see one particular movie.

There's a short on Monday night called house of names or something like that which my friend is in. It should be pretty funny.

hi
went to the RRR/PBS sacred heart mission fund raising footy match on subday. hilarious! the umpires had full KISS make up. i went to drink beer and watch the bands and give a few dollars to the cause.

I didn't make the match but it sounded like fun. Weird how both PBS and RRR are making big moves within a year or so of each other. It always seemed somehow natural to have the "Fitzroy" station and the "St Kilda" station, with the two main "hearts" of Melbourne indie/sub-cultures represented.

Hey I've been a bit slack with the cd so far, I'll come round and pop it in your mail box when I get a chance. It'll be quicker and best of all, cheaper for me.
