Now trying to decide which Perth International Arts Festival shows I'll be going to since I don't have that much money.

Think at this point I'll just be going to Yo La Tengo and Dirty Three (performing Ocean Songs).

Oh hey what's up fellow Perth dude o/

Anyway, I am definitely at the Dirty Three show, and beside from that there is not much that looks interesting to me. Oh, except for Asterix and the Vikings at Floating Films...

Dan Deacon in Ithaca next Sunday.  I'm pretty excited if only because of the antics I've heard from people who have seen him live before.

With Pavement playing? Be quick.

I'm seeing The Flaming Lips tomorrow!

Also, to whoever is going to see Dan Deacon live, I hear he's brilliant, really really entertaining. I'm extremely jealous, and wish that he would come to the UK.

EDIT: I just went to his myspace, so looks like he isn't doing any shows anytime soon cause of a manky leg. Bummer.

Yeah he canceled the rest of his tour.  The show I was going to would have been today.  Pretty bummed about his major back problems, but I hope he recovers and reschedules soon.

Lied in my last post (twice actually.  I saw the Pack A.D. after the last time I saw BtS and before I made that post)  I suddenly saw Russian Circles tonight with Git Some and Young Widows.  Fucking brilliant.

Still have Built to Spill Monday, and Minus the Bear with As Tall As Lions is a week from Sunday.  Joy.  AFI is coming in January, I am also very excited for this.

Too bad, Mudhoney are fantastic live. They usually start their shows with a cover of This.

Sometimes they even throw in a Black Flag cover!
