Uuuummm, why the fuck is the ad on the youtube video I am watching a video of Alexander Gow talking amongst books? I don’t even know what he was supposed to be advertising, I find it hard to concentrate on his words when he’s there just being all standing-y, and existing-y.
Why Simon? Why do you have to be different? This is why you’re the babe-a-licious guitar man and not manly, manly front man.
Also Happy Birthday Bianca!
Awwww!!! Thanks Danielle, the awesomest person ever! And Bo Bo, thanks for your assistance in the photography. Yay!

We were sitting out the front and started a bizarrely passionate conversation about burgers as we ate our meal.
(halfway through conversation)
Bianca: YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES AN AWESOME BURGER?
Me: WHAT? WHAT? THIS IS FANTASTIC MY MUSICAL AND FOOD SOUL MATE, WHAT IS YOUR OPINION ON WHAT MAKES AN AWESOME BURGER AN AWESOME BURGER? *notices an attractive, manly hipster (not one of those pissy ones) arrive on bike two meters in front of us standing in front of the venue and looking at us obviously listening to said conversation*
Bianca: It’s all in the bun…
Me: *interrupting rudely as per usual* I AGREE I 100% AGREE. *looks again at attractive manly hipster still standing and looking at us, strangely familiar*
Bianca: How good are they? Crappy bun is a crappy burger. Awesome bun makes the burger.
At this point we are both getting just a little to over stimulated talking about burgers.
Me: Amen. Tip top buns. Shit-house. Hate those things. *look at guy again because he is still looking at us and he is quite attractive but face is just not placeable at that moment*
Bianca: Agreed. Sesame seeds? Fuck that.
Me: You’re a genius
Bianca: You’re alright.
Guy goes inside venue
Me: Was that Alex(ander Gow lead singer and manly hipster front man of freaking awesome band Oh Mercy.) watching us have a ridiculously over the top conversation about burgers?
Bianca: Yeah, think so.
Haha omg, I only just saw this. Fantastic. Although you seem to have paraphrased me to talking in your style of speaking. Not to say I don’t approve, or dislike your turns of phrase, just that they are noticeably different from mine, and humorous to imagine coming from my mouth. “You’re alright.” We’re such dickheads though.

Here follows my collection of scribbles written by people I idolise, who probably think I’m abnormal. If you can’t recognise the scrawls or inner pages of album booklets then you fail at life.
Wow, and there’s a story behind each and every one…
Oh Mercy at Mojo’s Bar, Fremantle. Alex walked off stage unexplained for a few minutes, leaving Rohan and Eliza to try to talk to the crowd alone, slightly confused, when he returned they were even more confused about what song to play next, until they realised he’d just gone out of his way to play a most ridiculous joke on them. (You were right Dani, he did do it just for the joke)
“And no one’s ever going to know about that”, and he proceeds to explain it to the entire room.
What? No, I already own the album, why would I want a dumb digital version? No, this will not do, I am ringing Mojo’s as soon as they open.
Let Me Go - Oh Mercy
“I’m a single man, don’t fuck up my plans”
I went to Perth to save money on a cheap haircut, but I accidentally tripped while walking past JB Hi-Fi and landed in front of the counter with these CDs. Naturally I had to buy them then, so awkward when that happens.
Sound checking at our EP launch at The Toff. I am doing up the buttons on my shirt. Thomas is playing the guitar. Eliza is playing the bass guitar. Rohan is looking at the camera behind the drums. Rohan looks a little creepy.
