About me:
country kid who moved to the city on a high school music scholarship. at age 17, realised he probably didn't have what it takes for a professional career in music and opted for computer science instead. now working as an application developer. recently started playing the guitar again and now practices religiously. loves music more than anything. also loves traveling the world, is a big gamer, collects video game consoles, reads comics, watches anime and dabbles in photography. drives faster than he ought to.
hahaha i think ive actually lost weight on this trip. i ended up at pukkelpop !! the lineup was fucking intense. saw editors, eagles of death metal, tool, nine inch nails, smashing pumpkins, silverchair (they were actually good!), kings of leon, lots of drum and bass and electro and a whole bunch of other shit i cant remember. there was a guy with a cardboard sign that said GUNJA hahah take a guess what he was selling !! hope things are fuckin awesome back in perth !
is that US or AU dollars? haha... for now i'm regretting the purchase; i just use it to watch dvds and the occasional blue ray rental. :) Hopefully the fall lineup will be good for the system...
