I didn't do it!

There's a lot of angst in my hometown lately about classic music venues shutting down, and rightly so.
The big news this week was the closure of The Tote in Collingwood, followed a few days later by an announcement that The Arthouse on Elizabeth Street would also be closing.
It got me thinking about the great bands I'd seen at The Tote, like the Dirty Three and SixFtHick...and then I remembered that I had also played at The Tote!
As well as The Arthouse...
Hmmmm...
Other places our band had played included the Punter's Club in Fitzroy (closed), the 9th Ward in Flinders Lane (gone), Joey's in South Yarra and St Kilda (both shut), the Greyhound in St Kilda (no bands anymore), et cetera, et cetera...
We did have our CD launch in the Espy Gershwin Room, though, and that's still kicking on.
I, uh, hope I didn't just kill it, though...

Twi-lite

According to this article:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon is pretty sure who would win in a fight between his hunky vamp Angel (David Boreanaz) and Twilight hero Edward Cullen.
"Angel would kick the s**t out of him. He's Angelus," Whedon told MTV. "[Edward] just gets shiny in the sun. Boreanaz would have him down in a heartbeat."

Totally.
UNLESS that Edward guy was able to bore Angel to death before Angel got close enough to thump him in his stupid face.
I know I may upset 12-year old girls everywhere with this comment, but my God*, that movie was a snorefest! Here's an example from the script:

Moderately attractive so-called-vampire looks longingly at moderately attractive human girl.
Moderately attractive human girl looks longingly at moderately attractive supposed-vampire.
(Repeat)

Which reminds me, I've seen a lot of crappy films I could rant about. Must get on that.
Oh yeah - and here's a cool song about vampires from a band that's SO last century.
