I confess I've lost control

Today I went to Oakleigh music fesitval. Oakleigh has always been my second home anyway, so it was really nice. I bought cupcakes and drank hot chocolate and then I remembered that I performed there a few years ago with the school choir and I thought that was random.

The main reason I went was to see my sis play a small set. The venue they played in was so cool, very intimate but the stage setup was amazing. Apparently a lot of now famous people have played there. It's the kind of venue that every artist has to start at. I fell in love once I walked in, it was small, there were tables with candles on them and band posters covering all the walls with the stage at the front. It was just so...cosy?

Anyway, my sis did an awesome job! Every time I see her perform at something like this I get continually impressed, she's just such a good singer and she keeps getting better! The good thing is, the sound producer who was working the sound table is actually quite well known in the music business, and he apparently promotes acts which he likes, and he really liked my sis and her friend! That made me happy hehe, if I can't be a musician, I'll live through my sister and be a stage mum MWAHAHAHA.

Anyway, the whole thing got me inspired to play the guitar when I got home, and after I finished my uni work I told myself I'll allow an hour just to muck around on the guitar. One hour somehow turned into 3 and I didn't even notice! It was awesome, it just felt so good to get back into it. To actually get excited once I learn a song and want to just keep playing it over and over. Honestly, I haven't felt that same thrill in a while. It was so wonderful to feel it again. But now my hand hurts, it keeps cramping up. GO HARD OR GO HOME.

I heard Garbage play this song at Soundwave and I remember thinking to myself to find out what song it was, because I REALLY liked it. I searched through all their old albums and my search came up with nothing. But then I bought their new album and it was on there! So weird because it sounds like an old Garbage song. Anyway, I really like it. It's pretty dark and sad. Sometimes I think I'm meant for the early 90s when there was grunge and teen angst.
