'where the city meets the sea' the getaway plan

November 30th was possibly the most beautiful. perfect day to have an outdoor concert. With not a cloud in sight and a blue sky that seemed to stretch to each ends of the horizon, the weather could not have gotten any better.

The four of us [Sona, Dien, Jenny and myself] had dimsum much to Dien's dismay. BUT IT WAS DEELISHOUS... damn those squid tenacles were beautiful... During the yumminess of Dimsum, it was discovered that Dien had quite the collection of Singstar volumes. So we ventured to his new place near Beaufort St [ great location for shopping btw Dien! ], and timed ourselves for an hour. CAN NOT WAIT TO PLAY AGAIN!! Ting Tings were so fun to do... Sona was overjoyed to see Disney Singstar...however no one but Dien could compete with her impossibly high voice.lol. 

Belvoir Park was hoooge. so cool though... [will add pics when Dien sends them]. We decided to sacrifice front row standings for Merch. . . bad decision that I will explain later on.*sad face

I got a pretty snazzy Bloc Party tee...With an estimate of 10,000 concert goers, it was set to be quite a night. 

Opening up the show was Mission Complete [?].... They were pretty decent... and they better have been, to open up for Bloc Party =O... Anyways Dien and Sona became engrossed with the lanky boy in the background...we had all these theories including "band-aid"...l o l

Then it was time for Van She... Now at the time I hadn't really heard of any of their stuff... and their performance was not all that impressive.. BUT daaayam. the drummer was hot. Tomek Archer... now is that just not the most awesome name or what? After further listening post-concert, I am quite enjoying their music though. 

It was only after Van She's performance we found out lanky boy's real use. He was the sound check guy =S. Jenny then goes "OMG guys... I think I know him! I think he went to my school!"... and that's when the obsession started....lol This was also when the crowd started ,getting a tad rowdy ... but the guys in front of us were lovely. IT WAS THAT STUPID BITCH ERIN!! YEAH YOU SHORT SHIT! I don't care how short you are bitch... I waited way longer for you and I don't give a crap if you came from bunbury... should have lined up earlier then! She kept flinging her feral hair onto my back so I retaliated with jabs to her back that kept coming into contact "accidently" with me. yeah immature but it felt good. =] The poor girls behind us were getting harrassed by huge guys to let them in front... which was ridiculous. These girls were tiny and even if they let the guys in ... their line of vision would be no different. There was this one feral guy that I swear was on something besides alcohol, the things he said were a bit wtf. lol

Anyways the intermission between Van She and Bloc Party was T-E-R-R-I-B-L-E!~... I've been to other concerts... and by far this was the worst one yet. We decided to make the sacrifice of our awesomeness spot [4 people front stage] for the safety of our organs. Sona came out missing two thongs [TOLD HER NOT TO WEAR THONGS =S] and a nesty cut on her foot. We watched the rest of the concert from a comfortable distance .. and it was awesome. The energy of the crowd plus the pumping beats ... perfect. All the songs I wanted to hear were played so I was a very happy girl. Helicopter was definitely the highlight for me...

Afterwards... sitting on our little grass hill we saw lanky boy walk pass. Jenny the courageous decided to scream out "james"... He started looking around only to be faced with four sets of eyes on him. *whacks head embarrassing much? lol. But yeah guess we know it is her classmate, not that I cared.. he was U-G-L-Y...but I'm sure if Sona or Dien reads this... they'll make some snooty little comment to disagree lol 

We went back to Dien's to disinfect Sona's foot and I must say that was one of the highlights of the night. Watching Sona disinfect her foot while trying to hold in the pain to not wake up the other housemates...gold. After a midnight snack at Maccas, we all decided upon some well needed rest... I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say I slept like a log that night...

I WANT MORE OUTDOOR CONCERTS!!!
