I apologise. When your over here you’ve got no one to share your experiences with . You don’t get to go to work or the footy or school and say , ‘ how was that concert ‘ or ‘did you see the mad crowd down at the beach . Theres no whinging, celebrating or talking shit about your weekend . It gets stored up and clogged up in your memory space . I get rid of it by throwing it out onto the net . I want , we want you guys to see , feel and smell what we are experiencing . It’s surreal ( I know I’ve said that too much ) and I’ve been prone to go overboard with the live streaming , but fuck it . Your in Mornington or Australia and we are living on the beach in California . Can you believe that? Today we saw Everclear with thousands of yanks on the sand at Hermosa Beach . Ok , they’re not the Chilli Peppers but who’d say they’d come to California for a beach concert to see Everclear and then walk home to have a beer and write about it. It’s definitely been a tough transition for myself and the kids but it’s these days that you put in the vault . Storage, for another day down the track when I can reminisce and talk endlessly about that day down the beach . You guys getting tired of me talking about Californian shit , …. again. This is real , I’m writing to you guys now with a slice of American frozen pizza( the frozen pizza here is better than the majority of the pizza bought in Australian pizza restaurants) and a 1 pint can of Wolf Pup IPA beer at 8%, We’l go to bed soon with the fan on and feet hanging out of the doona . Can you believe that? It’s Sunday night and we’re just lounging around like it’s it the 1st week of January on one of those beautiful balmy nights in Melbourne while sipping on a nice beer with the leg hung over the arm of the couch . Soon as you get outside you can see your somewhere totally different to what you’ve always known and I apologise because I’m gonna keep throwing it your way , cause I need to get it out .
August13 sorry
