With the radio on

This just in:

The Jesus & Mary Chain will be playing at the Øya festival in Oslo, August 10th.

WE HAVE TICKETS.



Plus, Amazon just kindly informed me that the last book in Katharine Kerr's Deverry saga has finally been published and dispatched to me. I've had that pre-order in for more than a year.


This is a beautiful day.

Wow, neat! Although...I haven't followed up with anything after Stoned and Dethroned.

I've told you, you need to listen to Munki. Tsk tsk.

I haven't seen them live since I was 18. Not that they were a particularly great live act, but it's JAMC! *pant pant pant*

Guess I'm not the only one who got ecstatic over this :-)

I haven't even got around to reading my friends page yet. Can't concentrate. I actually hyperventilated and shook this morning, when I saw this in Dagsavisen.

I dropped the festival pass this year, as there weren't enough interesting band to make me fork out that much, and see what happens. Woven Hand, damnit, but I miss them, since I'm probably not going on Wednesday. Sigh.

I will see you there! Wheee!

Yay! I'll be the shaking, chain-smoking wreck who waits through four rubbish bands just to get a spot at the barrier.

I booked a hotel for the last 2 days!

This is the one

What do you think?

[identity profile] lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com 2007-06-07 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Holy hell! Now, that's pretty posh. Great hotel, very close to the railway station (and to us), AMAZING breakfast buffet. I just attended a seminar there, and I overate like whoa at lunch - which was pretty similar to the breakfast.

Didn't that cost an arm and a leg?

[identity profile] blue-chris.livejournal.com 2007-06-07 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
No, incredibly it was one of the cheapest, I found a good offer, probably because they have what they call "moderate single rooms" that are surely incredibly small but the hotel looked well and the location too and it was 1890 NOK, breakfast and taxes included
