Bloc Party blur

image

I’m still coughing like an emphysemic 80 year old and feeling all dizzy and weak, but nonetheless I wasn’t going to let that stop me go to Bloc Party. I popped vitamins, walked everywhere very slowly and drank a few cans of V.

It was completely, insanely awesome. The crowd were so happy and positive and into it. The band were beautiful and talented and smiley. The songs were nothing less than epic live.

If you’re really interested you can see a song from the gig here. That’s me in the middle/front with my hands in the air. Hee.

I have sore calf muscles from two hours of jumping up and down.

It cost far too much money, it fell in the middle of a crazy-busy time with work, Fraser had to take two days annual leave so I could leave the kids behind, I was sick and tired and unsteady on my feet…

...do I regret a moment of it?

Hell no. Sometimes a little bit of crazy is good for a girl.

did you come up to auckland for this> or most likely down to wellington (sorry I have not been paying attention these days) Looks like it was worth the trials and tribulations.

I _thought_ that was you on the bus on the way back into Auckland, but I didn’t have the guts to come and say hello, just in case it wasn’t!
