Someone left a mess in my room

I awoke this morning to find I’d had a visitor overnight. As soon as I saw those letters it bought happiness to my day. Only one person could have done such a thing and even though I knew it was coming up I had forgotten about my second rezzday last night and today. Thank you Buster.



I’ve said this before about Buster, there is something about this guy, he spreads happiness, he brightens my day. Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only Buster will leave footprints.

What shall I be doing with the day? I dunno.

[update]
He also left number 2's all over the place.

CRUSH - Halloween

The opening night went well with about 15 people joining myself and Esmiel for our sets celebrating Halloween.

During both the sets there was a competition for best Halloween fancy dress and Esmiel was voted by all to be the winner, he promptly put the prize money in the sploder, which I think ended up with a payout of over 3,900L$ Well done to the main beneficiary of that who I believe was Gregoire with a win of over 2,000L$.

Played some horror related stuff in my set, but tried to steer clear of the obvious tunes and hopefully I played some stuff that others had not heard before. My set list is below.

I didn’t get any pictures of the club with its Halloween decorations up, which was a shame as I thought the decorations were pretty cool, but it all had to be stripped out today and the club put back to normal.

So, a new venue with a new style playing the best alternative rock and punk around is now open. See you there.
