just a quick one… you won’t be hearing from me for the next month really. so if you don’t see a posting or don’t get an email reply back… don’t worry, i’m just busy.
last wk i got 3 bad pieces of news concerning the thesis. this is why you won’t hear from me. i will be working my ass off for the next month. if you IM me & i don’t reply… or if cut you off… apologises now.
but one quick thing i have to tell you about… the umbria jazzfest is here this wk. i found out there’s a few free concerts & rockin dopsie & the zydeco twisters are one of the free shows. of course by the time i call, all the freebies are gone but they are also playing at the hyatt. if you look at the page i just linked to you’ll prob notice a few things that are plain weird.
first off… they’re playing at a hotel. in the cafe. why bring someone across the world & have them play in a cafe?
second… they’re playing at 1pm. there are no evening shows at all. ok.. maybe some of the twisters are getting on in age …..
third… there’s a buffet! zydeco & buffet? hmm. and no, it won’t be poboys and jambalaya. i called to enquire re: the veggie options. they claim there will be salads & couscous. um, yeah, ok. so i confirm that it’s really 1pm. yup. and then i ask if there’s a dance floor. now i’ve REALLY confused the poor girl. no, there’s no dance floor. she wants to know why and i tell her about zydeco. she had no clue. she said the whole idea behind this was for people to come for lunch and have the jazz to listen to as you eat.
shit, i might have to pay $32 just to watch people try to eat during this.
