Minor Pleasures (4 Viewers)

Cool I can do that. Here's the gig blurb and now we can share a minor pleasure in it keeping it all on topic. :D

Milgram Records presents....

FRIDAY 14th JUNE

WÖLFBAIT (Ireland)
http://artforblind.bandcamp.com/album/w-lfbait
"Horrid, slow, relentless, pulverising dirge.
Swans.
Describe themselves as "kraut violence". Imagine Man Is The Bastard covering a Neu song. But a Neu song written by Chrome at their bad acid addled worst.
Like being tarred and feathered and thrown into a cesspit."
ex-Drainland folk by the way.

OMMADON

ex Snowblood. dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom.

ART OF BURNING WATER
http://artofburningwater.bandcamp.com/album/this-disgrace
"Art Of Burning Water channel the prime noise-rock of vintage Zeni Geva and Godflesh with the more complex rhythmical riff obsessions of the Melvins, Keelhaul and mid-period Voivod. In saying that however, AOBW also adhere to the original punk philosophy of ‘anything goes’, fighting the often ugly hardships of everyday living. There are no restrictions. Punk isn’t about Discharge (as good as they were and are), studded belts and crusty bum flaps. Punk is the heart to tell the narrow minded to get fucked.“This Disgrace” continues the more spontaneous writing approach of third album “Love You Dead” with some emotionally draining dirge sections akin to a more budget “Children Of God”-era Swans, “What’s This For?” period Killing Joke as well as the “Souls At Zero” beatings of Neurosis. All subject to opinion of course."

Being absolutely broke, shopping is a piece of piss. I just pick up food I know I can make last, tomatoes, some meat, herbs, pesto, pasta, rice etc.

It's when i have to go to Sainsburys for something in particular that the real hell begins. Everything looks great, I want to eat it all, there are cheeses and vegetables that are surplus to requirements, which i promise myself that when I have money I'll buy them and find a recipe, an excuse to use them. The shelves mock me, they beckon me to smash my self, my budget on the rocks of their prices. A decent piece of Lamb on special in the "soon to go out of date" discount section calls to me like a sirens song and I have to grit my teeth in my salivating mouth, and close my watering eyes and press ahead to the express DIY checkout where I count the change in my pocket twice to make sure I can get the one object I came in for. Then I slink away, ashamed and defeated, taunted and even more convinced that the day I make money is the day i have a heart attack.


fairly spot on there. i earn about 6 euro an hour at the mo. tesco's reduced section is keeping me alive
 
I remember reading about people using the supermarket to find dates/rides in an Armistead Maupin book but I've never witnessed it or tried it myself, even in san francisco.

Dunnes Stores down in Blackrock went 24 hour a good few years ago. Tuesday night after 9 was designated 'singles night'. Dunno how that worked out
