I found an original LP of the Lawrence of Arabia movie score. It's a bit crackly but that's because it's been in a bad record sleeve. I have a huge supply of special sleeves now and all my LPs are carefully cleaned, the sleeves replaced and the cardboard cover cleaned and repaired if need be. The humidity of the room is still a bit low tho, that cause crackle too so I must water the pot plant.

What's the best concert you've ever been to?

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Difficult call between Cyndi Lauper She Bop anniversary, and Flogging Molly. Neither are my utter favourite artist but the way they ran the shows was amazing. Whole experience rather than just seeing songs.

Oh and a highly honourable mention to what I believe was the second last ever Prodigy show.

Oooh. Watsky because it was a kickass experience. One Republic because I love the band. The Killers because they put on a helluva show.

Toss up between seeing Cotton, Keyes, and Morris in the 2000s singing all their hits and dancing with the audience.

And Montaigne at the Croxton on her Complex album tour.

Edit: I did see Pink in the 2000s as well for her Funhouse tour I think, at Rod Laver

I thought it wouldn't take long to make some patchwork cushions. I'm 6 hours in. 🤯 Looks like I'll be working on them the next few evenings. Handcrafts take so long.

Hey who ate the other half of the castello blue.. it wasn't me I thought we were all doing the no snacking.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

I just ate 6 cashews. Otherwise I'm doing really well. ( I'm starving half the day )
