Blurrrrr

Todays writing comes from New York City. I am currently extremely hung over at my friends house in the East muvafukn Village and i have to head to Midtown in 15 minutes for a meeting. Man i feel lame.

Anyway so the last week i have been in Austin, Texas for SXSW. Here is what i can recall from it, excuse me if i tend to be a little broad as my recollection of the festival isn't the best right now.

Wednesday - Flew into Austin with my bros, Stefan Wade and Matt Wardle. See Josh Pyke at LAX, he's on a different flight but heading to the same place. I love Josh, he's my bro too. Get in late - we are staying at the Sheraton with Stefan, meet up with our other bro Tex Perkins - then head to see Lily Allen but it's packed and we can't get in. We go and see Scanners at the Dim Mak showcase who are awesome and then head to see MXPX, their sound sucks so we decide to go home but stop off at The Bravery first, watch 2 songs and leave.

Thursday - My brain is killing me right now trying to remember what i did on this day. I know i got really really drunk but the exact order of events has left me. Fuck. OK no i remember. Get up real early and have breakfast with Adrian at the Driskill, he's cut off his glorious curly locks. Go and see Limbeck do an acoustic show for Xfm, head back to the hotel for a nap, wake, meeting at the Hilton, go to Pats showcase and see Ronnie Day. Bump into my friends Chris and Chris and also see Pat. Start drinking, drunk, drunk, gone.

Friday - Wake up hung over around Midday. Meet up with Adrian the drunk, he's still drunk. Goto the Aussie BBQ and see Children Collide who are awesome, get a sausage and leave to the Nylon/Diesel/Dim Mak house out of town. Honorary Title are playing, Limbeck are chilling, Matt and i start drinking free Vodka Red Bulls. Bad idea. I'm drunk again 3 and half minutes later. Ok so the rest of the day i think goes like this, got free jeans from Marnie. Thanks Marnie. Met up with Andy Jackson. More drinks. Back to the hotel for a bit. Dinner. Go see Hot Rod Circuit at Ellis showcase. Then off to the Diesel Party. See this awesome band called Matt and Kim. Leave there to meet up with Adrian. He just got a tattoo of a pig on his arm. He is wasted, it's hilarious. Head to the Pure Volume party with Laura at around mid might, i sing 90's punk rock songs with Andrew from Receiving End Of Adrian(sirens) for about an hour. Some girls try to interrupt us but we keep singing. I'm still drinking Vodka red bulls. Oh bad. Been drunk for 12 hours now. Jacki messages me, she's at a room party at the Hilton. Meet up with her, she's there with Matt, Dallas Crane and Trevor and Dan of Young Love. Leave around 4 or 5am. Get back to the Sheraton and wake up Stefan. I think he's angry with us. Night.

Saturday - Awake. Oh hello again hangover you fucking arsehole. Today is St Patricks day, i quit drinking. Have lunch, then off to see Love Drug at the Paste/Militia party. Frozen margahreta. Yuk. Back to the hotel for a nap. 8pm, Laura and Alex come over - we head to the Nylon party again. Marnie is playing. Vodka Red Bulls again. Jai drunk again on 1st drink. Hang out with Trevor and Dan again. Young Love play, they're my new favourite band. Soooooo good. Hang out in the vip room for some unknown reason with Mickey Avalon, he's a pretty nice dude. Then he starts playing. Good set. Hanging out again this time with Spank Rock. They play. AWESOME. Why am i even talking to these people? Matt and i walk back to our hotel, stop by some house party on the way full of metal heads, find some roller chairs and ride down the road. Get to sleep around 4am... 6am BRIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNG ALARM TIME. Oh shit no, flying to New York now. Still drunk. I'm a shit head.
