Fun In The Sun

Fun day today. We went down and checked out the Guitar Show, which was pretty much a bust, but I'm glad that we did it anyway. I did get to see a car from The Saltmine, which I guess was kinda cool.

I wasn't ready to go home, so we dropped by Kwantis park and had a walk around which was actually really nice. From there we did some shopping and got home just in time to head out to see Marc & Thomas. Despite our boycott of Wongs at the Firehouse. Which was a huge moral dilemma, though throughout the day we decided we really wanted to see Marc & Thomas. If you don't buy anything, then surely you're not selling out too much? That's what I keep telling myself, though I would like to still be able to say that I haven't set foot in the place. It's not like I needed any confirmation, but it did confirm what I knew to be true. The place is lame.

Photobox ImageAside from looking like every other Wongs that came before it, the place is a complete cluster fuck once you get more than 5 people in there. It makes me wish even more that there was a "Long Wongs At The Firehouse is not Long Wongs On Mill" Facebook group. I'd be their first fan. [smile] With that said, it was a fun set by Marc & Thomas and my video of it came out pretty good. And my new favorite comment was coined on stage "I don't mean to sound like a dick, but absolutely no fucking way!" [smile] There was a guy there assumability talking to someone in Australia on sykpe, which Marc enjoyed. I wonder if he knows they had Australian listeners long before this!

In any case, we'd rationalized our penance for stepping foot in that establishment (which I fully place blame on Marc Norman's shoulders [wink] ) to be dinner at Teakwods, and it didn't take us long after the boys had finished playing to get the hell out of dodge and over to Teakwoods. On which point, let's never speak of this again. [smile]
