Little update

Synthetic Culture was quite fun except for the ca. half hour when they played rubbish synth/futurepop/overplayed EBM on the second floor and the stuff on the metal floor wasn't to my liking. There was no Goth/Deathrock etc. Loft as it had been double booked for a private party. Not too bad from my point of view but not very good for those who went because of it. The selection on the 2nd floor was a lot more varied than usual, especially in the set between a bit past midnight and 1:30ish which had everything from classic industrial to powernoise with a bit of trancey stuff and digital hardcore thrown in. I can live with that. Most of the people who were supposed to be there couldn't go in the end (ditzy_pole, I hope your tonsils have shrunk) so I only knew reindeerflotila plus Terminal and Viru5.

Did anyone go to the Betty Ford Clinic? Any good?

This morning I had a long breakfast/brunch with three women and after a long chat left again for Cambridge. Coming home I crashed out and watched some A-Team Season 5 (not really my thing, but the episode in the mock Eastern Germany was funny in a cringeworthy way). A bit too serious for my taste, none of the building-a-tank-from-a-lawnmower-in-a-garden-shed hilarity.

Then a long phonecall with mum (still no date on birthday party but at least I know I'll be free on the 3rd), then shopping, prepping dinner, watching Primeval (again not bad), making/eating dinner (pan-fried mackerel) and, forgetting about it and having drunk a large glass of Chardonnay, failed to get to robinbloke's for board games. So I watched Bones and last week's episode of Supernatural instead. Might watch another ep of Masters of Horror and then call it a night.

Are you aware that the DJs who organise Godlike (The middle floor at SC) are none other than Terminal and Viru5, the vocalist and drummer of KreuzDammer?

Yep, met them, too. I knew there were two more people I knew but couldn't remember. I'm getting old.

Poor ole Synthetic Culture. They just keep fucking it up don't they!

I think it was the EGG's fault for letting the double booking happen (at least that's what the note by the DJ booth said) but you can never be sure.

No, bloody tonsils appear insistent on staying...

I'm annoyed at not going, but at least I didn't subject people to my petulant 4 -year-old routine.

Next month!

Hope you're feeling better soon!
