a wee update
Hell, I haven't posted to LJ fer a spell, coz I been having technical difficulties & all, but I thought I'd do a little update -- new blog home exists & working a bit on the fezwrecker website -- pure vanity shit, natch, but thought I'd collect it all in one place anyway. But for now, here's the cliffnotes version...
News:
music - playing in Ireland next weekend with Bailey, Phanthomas & Lars Vegas... Irish wedding... God help us. FTB on haitus in Haiti, Bolshoi Bandits still trying to break singer Kolja out of jail, Fuzztones can't afford me for the next tour, & I'm currently writing Western ballads for no apparent reason.
work - We've rearranged the Speakeasy & it's even cozier if you can imagine -- it's been busy as balls the past two months, & cool parties happnin the next few weekends... Cool to have some LJ buddies stop by recently too.
poker - I've also been killing it a bit in my Nebensberuf -- poker. In Berlin there are only two proper casinos, the SPielbank at Potsdamer Platz & the Park Inn Hotel at Alex... The Park Inn casino is on the 37th floor and has an amazing view of the city, & a much stricter dress code which is quite suitable for a snazzy gent such as I. The Potsdamer Platz one is for all the riff raff, & offers very little in the way of aesthetics, but it be more popular & has bigger prize pools. I've only got in the money one out of three times there, but I placed 1st & 3rd in two of the three tournies I played at the Park Inn, & tonight I finally get to play Omaha, my favorite game... It's not as popular as Hold 'Em, so I'll be fortunate if there are at least two full tables tonight. The whole reason I started playing the tournies is that I need a new Macbook Pro, and we don't sell enough Absinth at the bar for me to afford it... So I've earned 1500+ in poker this month, and I need about 1000 more to get the proper machine, so wish me some suited aces y'all.
health - I've healed rather nicely since the incident. still have a little Sugar-pop scar on the forehead, but chicks dig it. Not drinking too much these days, but Tadas from Vilnius cursed me with another bottle of Starka the other night, so again I'm fortunate to be alive.
love - painful & grand, wie immer.
