Franz Ferdinand - November 30

Is the turning point coming? Not the best one, but at least to make things a little better? I might change jobs, expect news.

I haven't talked about Franz Ferdinand gig on November 30, not that it wasn't worth talking, but you know... Sometimes I just don't feel like writing at all. Or maybe I do feel like it, but I enjoy doing it drinking a beer and smoking a cigarette and I'm not allowed to smoke in the house, apart from Friday. And then on Friday is usually the day that Ethan comes home and we talk and then Paula arrives and we talk some more and drink and listen to some music and drink some more and talk and drink and talk and drink... And when Adri and Lula are online we talk some more...

Anyway, last Wednesday was the gig. 7:30pm (there would be two opening bands). I met Paula at her work and from there we walked our way to Moorgate to get the train to Alexandra Palace (which is in zone 3 or 4, I don't know for sure, but pretty far away from Brixton!). It was raining, but not pouring rain, a 'boring' rain... and cold!
We got there and the place is on the top of a hill, amazing view, but we had to walk to the top, 15-minute walk, not cool. At least to go home we would go down!
There was a pub in the place and I got two pints and Paula went to get some chips. She bought two bowls but she managed to pour some milk on one of them thinking it was salt! It got ruined and we got 2 pounds poorer.
We entered the place and and it looked like the place in front of the airport in Porto Alegre, no kidding!!! To our suprise, there was a stall selling 'Brazilian Dough'. What the fuck was that? Nothing more than CHURROS!!!! Can you believe it? I think it had been more than five years since I last ate one and I had to come all the way to London to eat some churros, unbeliveable...





We bought some 3-pound beer (Budweiser) and waited for the show. I have to say that I didn't know any of their new songs, only the old ones, but it was great anyway. They played most of the songs from the first album and we got a good spot (always by the corner, never in front!)









I just wish I had a better camera. The pics aren't good but you can have an idea. Foo Fighters in 10 days time. I'm asking Paula for her camera, I've gotta register evey single thing of the show!
