The Mayan's we're probably wrong

Spending new years eve on a boat passing by hong kong's skyline was one of the highlights of the whole 2011... such a stellar group of people dancing the night away listening to shaggy and other ridiculous tunes from the early to mid 90's. Now I must get back to the real world....








After disembarking from our boat, we headed over to Wan Chai and spent hours upon hours at Xperience. 

Where danger lurked....

Highlights of 2011

GET A FREAKING BAND OFF THE GROUND!

Back from Slack

You'd think since I am not working day in and day out I would have more time to blog. Alas, laziness ensues and I have not been blogging. SLACK you say? Agreed. An update on the last couple of weeks...

Okay, first of all I went to the Shotgun Politics CD Release Party
Although I took no pictures of Shotgun Politics themselves, I thought they put on a very good show! I did however get some good shots of Hungry Ghosts...

... here are my favs.


The CD release party was held at Graffiti, a new live music venue in Lan Kwai Fong. Sucks, the place looks retarded and the vibe is lame. Good show tho!

Finished off my last week of work after that. Had a great going away party at Karaoke.

Then over this last weekend I went to the 2 day music fest at The Wanch


Pretty darn great time if you ask me (chances are if you are still reading up to this point, you probably are asking me). Who played:

Super Metal
FAAAR too many pedals!

Live Fast Die!



And 22 more bands I didn't take any photos of...

until next time.

the service was shit...

Had lots to do yesterday... stayed up the night before until about 3 or so working on those books, then woke up to finish them off before doing anything else, dropped em off at Zane's and that was that.

From there I went to Mong Kok to the Modern Toilet Restaurant. Basically living in mong kok these days... This is the second time I've been to the toilet restaurant since it opened like 3-4 years ago. My rating from both times -> Decor = top notch 10/10! Service = 0/10 Food = 1/10.
This is not a place to go if you like any kind of service or half decent food. We were the only group in the restaurant besides another group, there were about ten servers that you pretty much had to get up and beg them to come over to you so you could ask them time-wasting questions like 'can I get a glass of water?' then if you're lucky she will come over with a pitcher of water but noooo glass. anyways, they were just crap! So back to what I was saying, only ones in the place, so we finally get to order our food, it takes them an hour to cook the shit, everyone's plate comes just enough apart that the last person finishes before the next starts.... no one is eating together. The food that took the "chef" an hour to make specifically, was really kinda gross...

Well enough on that, here are some pictures of the place.
plunger and poo lights!
wall of urinals that change lights..
Hot Pot Toilet and Urinal Drinks on a Bathtub Table.
there was a very large collection of poo toys.

Speaking of toilets and such, Is it just me or should 'automatic hand dryers' be obsolete? These things suck (when they should blow, hah) but really there is no point to them, they NEVER ever dry your hands, I have to press that stupid button like 20 times to get my hands half dry-er. They have always pissed me off...

Enough ranting like a loon.

After the toilet restaurant we decided to take Derek and Roger (Derek's father) to Stanley. After the long bus ride we got there went through the market just quickly 'cause Roger was getting very tired of shopping. I found lots of pokemon cards and an AMAZING remote control helicopter. I didn't buy the helicopter but did pick up some pokemons. Haha, so after the market we walked along the ocean to my favorite little Stanley pub for a few pints.
Smuggler's inn...
writing and crap all over the inside:
KRUNK NINJA!!!
love you more than money... oh, no wait..
all the breast!
robot guy..


and, we ended the night in Wan Chai of course. Greg and Lindie came down and met Derek and Laena and I in Galaxy... we had a few super cheap drinks, we ended up loading our bags with 711 drinks and played drinking games at the park.
Was a pretty good day really.
