joburg....interesting

hello there!!!

well, even though i said that i would probably not be hitting band vibes in the jhb, i actually ended up doing just that! was weird. found out that my dear friends from captain stu would be gracing the fabulous concrete jungle with their presence, and it just would not have been right if i didnt pay my respects.

but this post isnt about them as performers, although once again i thoroughly enjoyed it. i think im beginning to prefer them to ashtray. but thats neither here nor there. anyways, im here to discuss the environment that i suddenly found myself in that i just didnt understand and still do not understand. weird.

so, this gig was at cool runnings in fourways, which as a venue, is a really sweet spot. they even have a fire in the middle of the yard. i could imagine spending my lazy saturday afternoons there getting exceedingly drunk on booze and good banter, but the people might just kill the vibe. its this giant hole of inbred individuals who were caught in a timetrap of 90s grunge. its the most bizarre thing i have ever seen! but like, not even in that cool, quirky way that capetonians seem to do it with. its in that really worrying, what the fuck is happening here, kind of way. captain stu are a happy bunch, i felt like these people drink each others blood instead of a glass of wine.

thats my uninspired tidbit for the day. i have loads of work to get through, so cant regail you with more exciting/scary tales of my experience at cool runnings fourways.
