Theatre of Tragedy live at John Dee, Oslo

Went to the ToT concert at John Dee yesterday, it was pretty good! A whole lot of songs I didn't know, and it was kinda weird seeing Nell fronting a band that was not The Crest, but all in all I had a good time.


Ok, so they're crap cellphone photos but you get the idea. John Dee was about half-full, I reckon - which admittedly isn't that much, but then again: it was half-full at the Pain concert last year, too - but the audience was enthusiatic and the mood was good.


Thomas was in charge at the mixer, so the sound was good throughout the concert and pretty much spot on from the 4th song and out. Too bad they stumbled a little during "Fade" (my favourite song so far) but hey, nobody's perfect!

Happy Anniversary!

Well, a year has gone by since I began my journey into the wonderful world of blogging, and it is with much pride I can assure you all that the amount of meaningless drivel here has been held on a surprisingly high level.

So, instead of writing something profound and meaningful about what I have learned this last year, I give you this picture of some funny looking Suricata Suricattas (that's meerkats or suricates to you and me):


Heh.

Macs do Windows. SAS-Braathens does nada.

I'm not quite sure how I'm supposed to feel about this, but for those of you still residing happily beneath a rock:

Apple has let the cat out of the bag concerning running Windows on your Intel-based Mac. It's all very beta and "proceed at thy own peril" stylee so far, but you can actually grab it from the Apple site for a limited period:



It'll be part of 10.5 Leopard, it seems. Woopeedeedoo! I'll expect T to give me an indepth review as soon as he's tested it on his brand, spanking new MacBook Pro (I'm not the least bit jealous, by the way, you bastard).

On a sidenote, I'd like to extend my heartfelt sympathy to those poor, underpaid, hardworking people at SAS-Braathens - Norway's premier airline company - who are now on their, uhm, second (third? fourth? I lost count) strike in the last 4 months. You know, I really feel the general public is getting way to hung up on the entire transportation part of your company; I mean, it's not like you guys can't take the train or carpool every major holiday, now is it? Just because SAS-Braathens pretty much has monopoly on flying in Norway, are way overpriced and as reliable as a flock of Leprechauns on speed doesn't mean we should all criticize them the way we do. Really. I love you guys.


Just get me home for feckin Easter holiday, fools.
