Concerts

Frederic sent me this shot of some synth related concert tickets he's been to. Pretty cool.

I've had a few people ask me more about myself. I think it takes a lifetime to really get to know someone, and even then you might not really know. We are pretty complex with a myriad of things that make up who we are and we change over time. Hmm... Kind of like a synth when you think about it. What patch are you today? : )

The music one listened to can be an intersting insight to some of what has influenced you over the years - just some of the oscillators, envelopes, filters, etc in our lives.

That said, click here to see every concert ticket stub I saved over the years. Unfortunately the shows frederic was able to attend were just a bit before my time.

Hopefully I won't lose any readers after this one. My girlfriend at the time made me go to Erasure. It was actually pretty cool, like a Vegas burlesque show on acid and tons of pastels. Unfortunately some of the better shows I went to, like Wire and early, early NIN were at clubs, so I don't have stubs for these.
