'tumblr' for those not familiar with it is
an aggregation of stuff
the web collected throu' someone's eyes
a curation of the web

there are thousands and thousands
millions
of curators

but the one above is the best I've found up to this point
pairs of contrapuntal images
many elemental
with a high diet of 'animated gigs' [tiny repeating movies]
captivating

and the tumblr trick that
when you get to the bottom
scroll slowly
as it refreshes on an on

LOU BLACKWELL – "SEA IS TURNING"
The first set was surprisingly good.
[I like to be surprised]
I liked her interpretive powers in particular,
which are some what evident in the images.
These original songs are an aquired taste, too many sirens &angels.
but i guess, there was some acquisition, on my part?

CARL MORGAN QUINTET (Sydney)
This was a confident, diligent, original contemporary outfit.
how come these sort of bands, start to blend together ?
Perhaps they all 'uniquely' listen to metal.. radical.
the drummer was the stand out for me..couple of great grooves.
they all geniunely enjoyed themselves..
It was a small, but appreciative, crowd.

What a strange public relations exercise?
Maybe i should ask to be friends?
or should I report them?
The photos are generally underwhelming?
surprisingly few faces?
maybe Facebook next?
