I got home on Friday night, watched some tivo, got into doing a bit of coding.

My mate called me and asked if I wanted to see The Beatnix tomorrow, and also asked about the CDs of The Who concert (they shipped a few days ago).

I said I was interested, and would speak to him again tomorrow.

I ended up sitting up coding, went to bed about 5.30am, it started to get a bit bright outside.

I got back up again about midday (or maybe it was 1pm or something) had some breakfast, bummed around a bit.

My mate called me again about 3pm, we went through the organisation again. I said I'd get to his place about 7.30, and we'll go from there.

I bummed around a bit more, started getting ready about 6.30pm, jumped in the shower, got dressed etc.

I took off, and headed up to his place.

I went to McDonalds on the way, grabbed some takeaway, and some cash out (convenient).

I put the food in the right hand saddlebag, which sits just above the exhaust, should keep it warm.

I headed up to my mate's place, and not paying attention, when right past it again, just like last time.

I came back, found his place.

Went in, ate my dinner, my other mate was already there, they were watching a Frank Zappa dvd.

I finished eating, and we went outside to wait, they'd called a taxi.

There were a couple of spots of rain while we waited, it was a warm night though.

The taxi turned up a couple of minutes later.

We jumped in, and went up to the club. We wnet past a bit of scrub on the side of the road at one point, and the taxi driver mentioned it was where some woman was killed, apparently they found her body in there. Nice.

We got to the club, went in, there was a line of people waiting to get into the concert area.

We walked around a bit, my mate got some money out of the machine, we went back to the front desk, bought the tickets ($15, pretty good).

We got in the line, went in, grabbed drinks, and found a seat.

We were in there for just after 8pm.

The Beatnix came on at 8.30pm, and right from the start I was impressed.

My mate had seen them before, but said they were even better this time.

A little while later a couple of women that my mates work with turned up.

A couple of times I thought that it sounded so good they must have been miming, but then I realised that they weren't.

We had a couple more drinks.

The went off for a break about 9.30pm, and came back on about 45 minutes later, done up in Sgt Peppers outfits.

They did a couple more songs before we all got up to dance.

They finished up just after 11pm.

I would have been happy to just come home at that point, but the others wanted to go out to the club or something. Whatever.

One of the women my mates work with had driven there, so we jumped in the car, and went back to my mate's place. I got my gear, and my bike, and I followed them back to the leagues club.

We hung around in here until about 2am, it was really poor.

The only enjoyable thing was the 2 skanky chicks having a catfight on the dancefloor, punches, slaps, hairpulling. It was great. They even did a couple of rounds.

Eventually security came in, and dragged them away, and threw them out.

I bumped into a couple of other mates as we were leaving, and the others I'd been with disappeared.

I chatted to them for a while, then they came out to wait for a taxi, and I came home.
