I think I might be tipsy. I still appear to be able to write coherantly (ha, I guess I’ll find out when I read this tomorrow) and I seemed unaffected on the walk home though I’m getting that kind of delayed feeling type thing where everything seems to take a little longer to reach the brain.
It’s been a while since I hit Bondi and so having got exams out of the way it was time to pay another visit. Which worked out quite well with Rachael’s current visit to see Michelle. We hit Bourbon at 8 and then after stopping off at The D (at which Claire ate some food, mu ha, even if it was only 2 chunky fries) we hit Bondi and danced the night away. Well, for a bit, we left at like 2.
All in all the day made a bit of a recovery after this morning’s not so great start. I either slept through my alarm or turned it off in my sleep or something because I woke up at 1:03, having been supposed to start work at 1. My mum kindly gave me a lift so that I could make it in for 1:30 though.
It’s been quite a long weekend as we didn’t get out until 4am on Saturday and then 3am on Sunday. Indeed, we were still outside on Saturday when the openers turned up.
I also want to briefly discuss Bondi’s sound system. They seem to have plenty of speakers although their bass is disappointing. It sounds kind of over driven and while seems to handle the higher frequency of bass well, and the very low frequency that makes the floor shake, the low audible level seems fairly non-existant. I’m not sure whether this is just the quality of the audio they are using though as it all seems to come through a computer so they may just be playing MP3s as some songs sounded better than others. It was also interesting that they seemed to have floor monitors mounted to the ceiling.
As for the lighting rigs, they had two rigs of mainly par lamps which just had a coloured filter and turned on and off as well as one or two moving heads on one of them. They also had two rigs of scanners one of which had a large but disappointing strobe light on as far as I could tell. They also had two normal lights just shining onto disco balls. The point is, I recon we can match this system next year ;).
