Its like a movie, but Im standing still – Bob Dylan

I saw M83 last night at the Disney Concert Hall. I gotta be honest, when I saw more the LA Philharmonic gang I thought hey they’re nice and all but Im here for a rock band. All the cultured types (Im tempted to say New Yorker types) and some really hot women all sitting down quietly, intently, listening like its a physics lecture. The parts when M83 did perform was really good. M83 uses a mix of “noise” and very simple loops and layers it with classical music. I wanted something really loud but this is pretty neat. Disney Concert hall is very cool too.

The night before I saw Watchmen, which is the most awesome movie in recent memory. Awesome slow-mo opening credit montage with Bob Dylan’s ‘Times-They-Are-A-Changing”, other flashback montage with other awesome music, awesome sex, the girls are hot, the violence is so satisfying when the bad guys get beat up/cut up/fried, the glowing naked blue man has awesome powers and he does it fully nude(with full frontal penis too), the FX are awesome, they crammed so much story in almost 3 hours, it actually had an ending.

Ok so it was good.

There’s been many things Ive been wanting to say since the last post, which was, like, a year ago. Man, time moves so fast in the USA.

I was in New York last December. Saw the American dream incarnate, and found out New York is actually quite old – its skyscrapers are easily older than 60 years. Seeing that skyline of buildings and the vibrancy of people coming from all over the world to it – its a “wooo” and some seconds of silence. Saw, felt, and drank snow for the first time in life.

Things are going good here now, it definitely aint a bed of roses but so much to be thankful and to look forward to.

I’ll probally make the entries as simple as possible. I like that.

Until then.

Oh did I tell you the Thai restaurants here are the closest thing to a mamak nasi kandar at 2am? Yes and the american size is satisfying as hell.
