1. Watching one of the "Grindhouse" movies that came out about 5 years ago. I've been tallying movies I've seen for the first time this summer- (since 8th May)- and I'm on #58. Bit of a movie buff.


  2. Bagpipe is a Scottish instrument! Annyoing too.
  3. Planet Terror, to be exact...the one where the girl ended up with a machine gun for a leg. Were those popular outside America? Quentin Tarantino directed one, and Robert Rodriguez directed the other, they were released as a double feature.


  4. Speaking of Scotland, Kieran, my band played The Proclaimers' "500 Miles" at all of our gigs this year
  5. That's a lot of movies :O I almost never watch movies, more TV series.

    Kieran: I know bagpipe is a Scottish instrument This is some kind of flute that imitates its sound.

    Oh, and speaking of Scotland, I've been listening to A LOT of Paolo Nutini lately.
  6. I intend to actually extend my "count" til 8th May 2012, to see how many new ones I see in a year. I make it a goal to see as many as possible, I really have always loved the art of film. Longer than I've loved the art of music, even though music moreso defines me.

    I should rephrase, too- not "new" movies- NEW ones to ME...meaning films I've never seen before. So, from all eras.


  7. Ahh, The Proclaimers. My parents saw them a long time back and said they were actually pretty good.

    Got any videos of your gigs yet btw?
  8. I do, actually. Pretty good one of Pearl Jam's "Alive" from the other night. Played in front of a pool and our singer did an angelic back-flop into the pool at the end of the song; it was our last song of our last gig of the summer. I'll find it and post it.

    Yeah, there's always a couple of people on Princes Street with kilts playing bagpipes, basically busking. You can hear them from ages away.

    Not a fan of Paolo if I'm honest.
  10. The heat was so unbearable that day, it was ridiuclous...played in something like 95 degrees F?!
