CHAOS! thought we were seriously not going to make it after tram/train and every other form of transport were delaying us.
anyways... finally got there after an amazing race-esque run to the national theatre (which, to get there just take the no. 16 tram and will take you right there) and we met some pretty fabulous people who were also off to go.
mmm... so, get there and theres a lot of empty seats... and she comes out in all her glory and says...
"there's a lot of empty seats ... i might be breaking theatre rules but can everyone just move to the front..."
like a fucking plague of people trying to get on a lifeboat as the titanic is sinking they scrambled for a prime position. including us. so, we ended up about 6 rows in front of where we were.
sooo cool. anyways... needless to say it was a good night and her voice and little dancing skills were fantastic. although i dont know much of her music (my knowledge consists of little fish flame trees) i was really moved and it was pretty amazing that people (her) can just use her voice and make me get goosebumps. and then there was the piano, cello, violin, trumpet, flute ... and the fucking drummer was hella good. and then there was the main singer dude from augie march making a cameo.
so... overall i was really happy and it was a "splendid" night. after that it was time to dine on acland st. which was actually not as scary as i thought it would be. i had a really good chicken salad and carol had gnocchi. mmm.
ok. gotta go. carol's freaking out coz she has eggs to paint.
p.s - here is a picture of the "gorgeous" sarah blasko.
