Lately (recommendations)

I've been watching Mad Men lately, loving the differences between life in 1960 and life fifty years on.
I'm also madly in love with Christina Hendricks from her Firefly episodes some years back, so I'm very much enjoying watching her character development in this series.
The whole thing is fascinating, and gripping! I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it.

One of my dear friends who is my Go-To Music guy, the person. I ask when I want an opinion on all things industry, has asked me to do backup vocals on his next project for one of his bands, and I am so excited and honoured!! I have sung with them before, but never on any recordings, so I am going to work extra hard on just the right notes.
Also, I found out yesterday that The Darlings are playing with The Spitfires (a well-known Perth band, and one of my high school best friend's bands) and a touring band from Adelaide (where I spent my youth) at Ya Ya's next Thursday. Very exciting stuff for only our fifth gig!

We saw Tangled in 3D today, I swear I was just like a kid! Also highly recommended! Even if you're not a kid, you can always enjoy a great kids film, and this one was the best I've seen in a very long time, its up there with Meet The Robinsons, which is a brilliant film, see that one too, if you can.

Finally, my music tastes hve broadened. I've massively fallen in love with Passion Pit, despite my hardest attempts not to. It's probably the happiest music ever! I'm hoping they play it at Ya Ya's next week, being indie music and all!

Ciao for now.
