genuine apologies for how much this tumblr has turned into photos of myself, swear i’m not a 15 year old girl but I am a narcissist who just quit his job he hates and is leaving a city he needs to leave real bad so just lemme have this one huh
not exactly a deep cut or nothing but it does seem fucked up that this wasnt a live staple for therm forever, song is such a jam
as always, great crowd shots
DJ’ed tonight for the first time in forever
didnt go super good
was super late notice but i should be able to do this shit in my sleep
didnt matter, the other dude did most of the hard lifting (in all applicable senses) i just brought a huge crate of records i could barely carry and then lost this dudes coke somehow unless it was a scam which i dont think it was, hes a friend and i felt bad so i gave him ten of the 20 bucks i made
dont remember the order, sure im forgetting songs, we kinda tagged each other in and out but he played way longer and covered my ass to where i didnt mind being bossed around for once
i know i played more stuff, i know my goddamn copy of perverted by language is missing and so is the sleeve for my tubeway army 7”
fuck this kinda djing i think

started a bunch of things at the wrong speed or put the needle on the wrong song or didnt fade quick enough
never made any of those mistakes before which just made it feel worse, was also not drinking very much
upside: i found these retarded sunglasses at the bar after they closed
they are bad but they are also mine, now

oh fun postscript i went to the atm and as soon as my records were safe at home i went to pill hill and bought $25 bucks worth of methadone even though i said i was done

this was the most money ive ever paid for a show but i got to see sparks for free the next night so i try to pretend like they were both fairly priced big name shows :/
sparks show was a big ol kick in the dick though, the 2 hands one mouth tour is a neat idea but i wasnt feeling it at all, the newer stuff sounded great but all the classics got totally butchered, i almost left when they did “sherlock holmes” as a jaunty cabaret thing
anyway this show was great, the crowd fucking sucked (70 dollar tickets tend to bring out a certain element, especially in san francisco 2013), someone actually laid “is this your first concert?” on me, just unreal, apparently he had a 2nd encore on the setlist but didnt do it because of lack of audience response
the thing that really stood out to me, at the very beginning it felt awkward and stilted, watching this pretty old dude slink around, it didnt look good, it didnt have his whole electricity and then like 2-3 songs in i realized like
he has to ease into it now, every time he did a stage move it seemed more natural, by a few songs in it was like “oh ok nick cave is here now”, totally incredible show
weirdly, same deal as the spiritualized show i saw in joshua tree, the one letdown was the song i wanted to hear the most (deanna for nick, medication for spiritualized)
everything else just worked perfectly at this show, the kids choir wasnt annoying, the new album shit all sounded great and made me like the album more, setlist was amazing
best birthday present i ever bought myself
