Of music nerdery and insatiable wanderlust

Yesterday, I heard about a documentary film made for some Australian film festival, called "4". All it is is four different violinists in four different parts of the world, each showing an insight into life there in four different seasons, and each of them is playing a movement of Vivaldi's four seasons. Spring is set in Japan, summer in Australia, autumn in the United States and winter in Finland.

I really like the idea of this, since it ties in my music obsession with my massive desiresee things in the world, to not to mention my interest in the countries of Japan and Finland.Unfortunately, said film seems to be nigh impossible to get hold of. Still, I found a littleYouTube. bit of it on

Of festival seasons past and present

I love festival season. I've been watching Glastonbury all this weekend (Blur are on soon ♥). So here are some of my favourite gig videos.

Florence And The Machine - Rabbit Heart. 
This isn't from Glastonbury since those aren't on YouTube yet but I saw them therereally liked them! This is live though. and

Nightwish - Ghost Love Score - RMJ Party Camp.
Favourite band of all time.

The Prodigy - Omen - Isle Of Wight 2009
My dance-junkie brother showed me this and I thought it was quite cool.

System Of A Down - Psycho - Big Day Out 2002
Yeah I know this isn't recent but it's a great video.

Peace & Love

Of revision and romanticide

Made some physics notes today. The exam is on Wednesday, and then I have no more exams for like, a year! 3 months of summer holiday (& a week of work experience) here I come!
I can't freakin' believe that the BNP have two seats in... whatever it was people were voting for. Are they mad?! I mean, I don't blame people for not voting labour, they've made a royal fuck of things, but the BNP are still a bunch of bloody racists! Grrrr... at least they're still pretty small, and I hope it stays that way.


--Music Junkiness--
I love this band so much. This is a video of them at a recent festival in Finland, they look absolutely freezing!
Nightwish - Romanticide live at Sauna Open Air
