so today was the start of a thoroughly exciting weekend.

as zoot and i left the house, we saw a taxi driver beating his passenger up along missenden road. then we realized that we'd printed 2 of the same ticket for the operator please gig so we stopped by a net cafe to print the 3rd one out ...

"girlie, look behind you", i stage-whispered
"OHHHHHHHHH", responded zoot

for there was a thin 65-year-old chinese man watching girls in string bikinis wrassle on youtube, and he was filming it on his digital camera. nooooo shit. zoot had to suppress a shriek while i was having a conniption.

fast forward to the gig, the supporting band for operator please were absolutely fantastic! they're called little red and they are simply the cutest boys ever ever ever, especially the drummer who gets up and dances every now and then. 1.5 songs into their set zoot and i decided to get their EP and it really is worth every cent.

and then operator please came on and they were jumping as usual and did a most energetic cover of devo's whip it.

so even though between zoot, craig and i we were older than the combined ages of everyone in the metro, it was a most excellent night out.

ooh and tomorrow's the surry hill's festival and we're going to see the bakery. so *squeak*! best weekend ever in a long time!
