Photo-a-gogo

Hey, I posted some shots from my new cam on my Flickr and a few film shots (including the one below) I had forgotten about, check that shit out - http://www.flickr.com/photos/lookwhatgodjustdidtous/

I don't know how to use the new cam yet so excuse the dslr shots.

O'Doyal RULES!

Hello folks!

Not much going down in the Andi camp at the minute... still crippled by a broken wrist. However, my new camera arrived yesterday so I've been playing with that... Annnnnnnnd... work? nah, not interesting enough to write about. Not being able to play guitar has had me putting lyrics to all the solo and band demos, so thats good.

Anyway the reason of this post is to show you a photo of Chris being a Velociraptor in a Jurassic Park-esque kitchen we stumbled into one night last month.

Broken bones and mircophones...

Ok, so blog entries have been very few and far between over here of recent, but I really do have some great excuses, they are as follows –

I have been doing some serious study recently, as the study year is approaching.

I work full time, and study full time, so when I get the chance, I like to sink into the couch and read a book or just stare at the ceiling – this beats blogging most of the time.

I have been writing lyrics furiously for my band and solo project as both are soon to be gigging hopefully.

And last, BUT DEFINATLY NOT LEAST… I ate shit on my skateboard and subsequently fractured my fucking goddamn shitting wrist, which has really put me out, as I cant ride my bike or play my guitar, two things that help me maintain the little sliver of sanity that I am clinging to… ALSO, because it is my right wrist and I am right handed/wristed, it pretty much makes a complete cunt out of the simplest everyday tasks I am faced with everyday, like opening a door whilst holding something or getting my wallet out of my pocket…. Not to mention the fact that it hurts like a bitch. But luckily I have a great girl who makes my injury easier to bare as well as friends who have been making me dinners, opening my beers etc…

In other news, I bought a DSLR, a Pentax k10d which I should get next week, which will be fun to play with.

I also saw Ben Salter last night at the Alley Cat bar in North Hobart, and that dude is amazing!

Anyway, I will sign out for now, as this pitiful entry has taken over half an hour to write left handed (it’s OK, I’m doing this at work).

I'm not dead...

...just hiding from the internet.

I will return soon, and triumphantly mind you.

Quick little update - I saw Dan Kelly last night and he kicked arse! I also fell off my skateboard and hurt my hand...

Anyhoo... only a couple of assignments to go, and i'll be all yours again.

Peace

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream... for RICECREAM?!

Welly welly well….

Long time and not much blog! I’ve let this place run wild and get over run by bitching about my life and photos… tons of fucking photos… you people don’t want to see that shit do you? Anyway to explain myself: I’m a busy lad, and I haven’t really had the time to do anything profound on here, as I’m working and studying full time as well as writing an (almost finished) album with my band and an EP solo, and keeping my girlfriend liking me, so yeah… I have neglected this space, and for that I must apologise. I only have a few weeks left of my study year, so I’ll be able to do more here…. Probably won’t stop the bitching and photos though.

Anyhow, to fill you in with my past little while – I’ve done something with my foot, which has left me limping around like an invalid for two weeks, and put a stop to my skating and riding and all that, which is shithouse. I also got banned from commenting on the Mercury (Southern Tasmanian newspaper)… so there goes a bit of a time waster activity for work… see I’m bitching already!

I did however get a sweet old 10 speed Apollo road bike for $40, which kicks all kinds of arse! So I’m gonna be riding in style this summer.

But yeah… that’s all really. I won’t write a review on those shows that I said I might do, can’t remember them anymore.

Peace

I want to grab my collar and shake the shit out of myself!

Here's some shots I got on the night that I picked up my tripod.

Not great, but whatever... It doesn't hurt to look.

I am a human tripod...

...and I just bought a new tripod, so I will no doubt be posting some long-as-fuck exposures on here when I get my current roll of film back. Shit's gonna be mad y'all.

Anyway, I have the next few days off work as I am studying and going on a road trip with my main men to see some awesome bands - I might even post my first live show review... if you're lucky that is.

I also got the awesome news this week that the New Pornographers are touring Australia AND they are coming to Tasmania (huge deal if you don't already know) AAAAAAAAAND they are bringing Neko Case! Fuck yeah!

I'll leave you with this pic I took when teaching K-Dub the art of driving a car -



be sure to go to my Flickr thingy and look at my other shots, and you should totally leave some comments, because in reality, it will make you feel good as well as boost my ego... so everyone wins!
