It seems like there is going to be a fair amount of Stockhausen music at the Proms on 02/08/08. I would like to attend this. Let's see whether my finances and absent-mindedness allow me to....
It's been a strange day, with all four seasons rolled into a few hours. There was howling wind and ice coming down from the sky just a short while ago, now it is bright sunshine and blue skies.
Also for me it has been a funny day, spent mostly fire-fighting -dealing with awkward stuff and not always delightful errands that nonetheless had to be done, for me and possibly for others. And not achieving much.
I might not go out at all tonight. What is there? Sedition? Might like to go to that but I'm a bit low in energy and money, need to save both.
Playing in public last week reminded me. I need to do more of that. Pity I'm so rubbish at selling my own product. I do believe I have a product to sell, as a musician, but I'm crap at persuading people that they have to pay in order to listen to me play the guitar.
Last night went to Greenwich to the Union, for dj_alexander's birthday drinks. There were some photos that will come up eventually. It was a pleasant occasion, I liked the Greenwich Union, and I like Greenwich. It doesn't feel so much like London but rather like a sea-side town, like Whitby or some of the places in the Isle of Wight.
I also liked 'Mean Time' (silly pun name, and noondaydemon and I have a song with that title as well), a chocolate beer. Yes, I thought it would be horrible, but it turned out to be not sweet at all (why was I thinking that it might be?) and very yummy. Thanks pitufina for introducing me to this. I think. As it might be an expensive addiction...
