Theres that unmistakeable buzz in the air. You know the one. Something hot is about to happen. You could be anywhere, Fitzroy, Byron, Bondi the feeling is always the same. Six musicians with fire in their bellies take the stage, hundreds of hip-shakers shuffle forward ready to party. You hold your breath, not taking another for fear of missing that precious first note. An explosion of sound fills the room and from the first downbeat the crowd begins to pump. Raw energy pours off the stage as the mob begin to jump and gyrate. Sweat is flying (onstage and off), and the frenzied party comes to a climax. A trend-setter up the front is screaming her head off and the guy next to her is about to make his move. The band rock out one last finale tune then stagger backstage as the bouncers move the party somewhere up the street....... You wake up the next morning, a smile on your face and the words renegade reggae scratched into your arm. Sharp flash-backs of brass explosion and fiece drumbeats ambush your fragile state, and the words of a song called 'Lazy Sunday' repeat over in your head. But, the question still remains,

Big gypsy tunes will echo around the centre of Melbourne on Friday 7 August when The Woohoo Revue head up a massive line up of bands and DJs at the Forum Theatre as part of the Melbourne International Film Festival’s Balkan Beatbox Night.
In addition to The Woohoo Revue, the show will also feature such amazing acts as Vardos, BabaGanoush, 13 piece brass band Opa! as well as DJ Gabriele Urban Gypsy (PBS Trans Europa Express).
The combined talents of these performers will make this a rampaging Balkan carnival of oom-pah, gypsy swing and huge brass band sounds.

Sounds good. I know I start training for my teaching position on the 6th and it will be ongoing for a few more months but hopefully we can work something out. the extra coin i make from taking those paid surveys online helps out alot tho; you should really do them too; i mean, hey, the extra money comes in handy, right? i guess you'll have to type the link into internet explorer or whatever, but here it is: www. surveyblingbling .com I prolly won't have anything going on that weekend so if nothing else, maybe I can get back to town for a few days then. If I can work it out, you'll have to meet 'em too. Talk to ya later buddy. Keep me updated!
UGH! It's just that he picks the damnedest (I know it's not a word) times to take a nap. I am STARVING and I didn't plan on cooking because my dad gave us a gift certificate to go to Ruby Tuesday and we had plans to go. I tried to wake him up over an hour ago and he's still laying there. I'm moving on from annoyed to pissed off! anywayz, it went good. We got stuff for our wii. How was yours? know what sucks? that IM supposed to be the one that knows about "web-stuff" and your profile is better than mine? Maybe I should just let you take care of mine like mom does Dan's...ohh, that reminds me, speaking of mom; i finally got her to start taking those surveys online like i'm doing, cuz i know the extra money sure comes in handy. you should really try em. i mean, if i got mom to try it, psh, i can get anybody to, heh..i guess you'll have to type the link into internet explorer or whatever, but here it is: www. workforblingsurveys .com ... anyhow, I know we are both kinda like "woah" right now. But I just wanted to take a second to remind you that you are Amazing!
