Held at The Globe, they played 5 songs, the first of which most of us missed not even realising that they had started playing in an adjacent room.

As usual, I brought my camera to cover their gig and with what little and complicated lighting, I did my best to accommodate it!….After all, Tim did record my dance performance.

My Verdict: I preferred The the the stutters much more then the other 2 bands I heard that night. Simply the fact that I walked out on the other two bands! I don’t think its entirely their fault, the sounds technician did a horrendous job of balancing the instruments and vocals, so bad that I could barely hear the singer let alone comprehend the song lyrics.

However, Tim and Luke’s band did a fantastic job for their first time, thoroughly enjoyed the songs they played.

Plus…..no fun allowed =(

In conjunction with my photo-post, IF90‘s very own Shu take on The the the Stutters. Check it out at IF90.net plus more of photos of the gig here.

You can also check out The the the Stutters website here. It isnt complete yet, but its worth checking out the  link and you can click through to check out their myspace(boooo!)

Im not that fond of bars when im sober(Designated Driver) cause thats when you notice the sticky floors, shoving around, really really corny jokes plus watching all the people around you make a fool of themselves. 10 minutes into the bar adventure, a slightly older man, probably about 50s if I would give a guess joined Ben, Tobey McGuire(a look-alike) and I in a conversation.

He was basically totally ignored so I decided to take the liberty to make extra small talk with him. I noticed he was acting weird, but nothing could have prepared me for the next 20 minutes. Here are a few snippets of the conversation.

Conversation 1(after some menial small talk)

Old Guy: So, do you have a girlfriend?

Me: No

Old Guy: Are you looking for a girlfriend?

Me: Not at the moment

Old Guy: Oh, why not?

Me: …..(didnt answer)….

Conversation 2(as he was leaving to get another drink)

Old Guy: I would like to see you again, what do you think?

Me: maybe

Old Guy: Maybe? what can I do to make that a yes?

Now that I look back at the exact words he said, its so blatantly obvious where he was going with this but its really not the same in person(plus im pretty slow and was tired)

Me: urm…..(wtf? in my head), yeah, you go get your drink and ill see you back here….

At this point, I was telling Tobey Mcguire about my encounter but he assured me that it was nothing…

Conversation 3(after he gets his drink, walks back and stands next to me *sigh*)

Old Guy: I would really like to see you again..

Me: Maybe in some other circumstances….(as you can see, Im way too nice to tell him off -_-)

Old Guy: How about over coffee? Can I have your number?

Me: urhh….no….Youre making me uncomfortable…

Old Guy: alright…

Me: Im going to make a move now, its getting late and I have an early morning appointment(I wasnt lying)

Old Guy: ok, youre a beautiful boy

Me: *stunned* (wtf?)

I then proceed to evacuate Normanby Hotel dragging Ben and Tim out with me to tell them about what just happened….yeah, they couldnt stop laughing…its definitely one of the weirdest things to ever happen to me. What a way to start off my 24th year huh =/

Seriously...

Im totally speachless..so, apparently, Im a beautiful boy?…
