I just haven't gotten round to adding anything recently.  I've finally sorted out the good pictures/videos from the Paléo Festival last week.  Check them out in the gallery if you're interested.

On the subject of pictures, I started playing around with our new camera.  As you'll see in some of the firework pictures in the Paléo album, I started leaving the shutter open for about 5 seconds to get a blend of 2-3 fireworks.  This worked pretty well, so I moved onto lightning when I saw a storm over the Alps.  They didn't come out too well, but they were a lot better than I thought they would be.  See here.

Meanwhile, only 2 more weeks working full time!  Just as our office gets "expanded", too...

I win .  I was at the OpenAir festival in St Gallen this weekend.  I hadn't seen a programme since Thursday evening, so I completely forgot who was on and when.  Turns out that the Manic Street Preachers were there (that's twice in 3 weeks for me), followed by Lenny Kravitz (very cool).  The Fratellis were on yesterday - perfect concert music.

Yesterday's concerts were all during the day time rather than the evening (I think there was a football game on or something), so the sun was out and shade was hard to come by.  As a result, I'm white on the left, and quite badly burnt on the right side.  Yes, its funny to look at, but it hurts quite a bit.

I should just point out that I do not recommend using trains as a hotel - its very tiring, and you have to wake up every 2 hours to change train.

No new poll this weekend, sorry.  I wasn't at home much so I didn't get a chance to upload the new thingy.  Besides, I haven't thought of a new question yet...
[Edit] - New poll is up, from the mastermind that is my sister.  She'd thought it'd be funny to know who you are.

The last poll turned out as two lumps majority - 18 out of 22 people voted for two, while one lump and more both got 2 votes each.

Well, that's the Caribana festival done with.  Two more to go...

Caribana is tiny!  Its almost cute.  Its not often you can't see the stage because a tree's in the way, either.

A fairly wide range of bands were there, from the Stereophics to Boy George.  Infadels were also there, which made them the first band that I've seen twice.  For some reason, the Manic Street preachers did a cover of Rihanna's Umbrella song (which was pretty good), and Boy George did T-Rex's Get It On.

I've stuck some pictures up in the gallery, so go have a look if you like.

Apologies for the cheesy title, but that Kylie concert was pretty good in the end.  It was almost 3 hours!  We all had to sing Happy Birthday (40) to her half way through (though that was actually Wednesday).

I didn't take any pictures, but here are some I found on the web (taken by Mark Remund):

I did have a video from YouTube on here, but they've all been removed, so never mind.

First off, Konk: the new album coming from The Kooks.  It's out on April 11th (buy it here).  I've erm... "acquired" it, shall we say (I have actually pre-ordered it, so I've already bought it really...), before hand and I can report that it is very good.  It still has the same uniqueness about it that their first album had.  One can only hope to see them at Paléo again this year.

Speaking of Paléo, Romandie.com have got their grubby hands on a 'leaked' preview of this year's schedule.  Mika, The Hoosiers, and Maximo Park all on the same day - sounds good to me.  REM on the Sunday, too.

I know what I'm doing this summer :) ...mind you, I knew in December when I bought the tickets...
