After a midweek jaunt, Friday soon crept up and with it came a second gig in 3 days. This time, the John Butler Trio. Not a band I've ever really spent much time listening to, though I've certainly been told a lot about them - especially how great their live shows are.
For this reason I bought myself a ticket some months ago, and was really looking forward to seeing what they had to offer. Soon after the first notes had been plucked, the Hordern Pavillion started to smell a little different, and from no help of the stage smoke machines, the atmosphere a little hazy.
So with the crowd about as mellow as they could be, the gig played through to the delight of everyone in the building. Even without knowing too much of their work, I could really enjoy the talent that John and his two buddies brought to Sydney.
The following, surprisingly pleasent morning, I rode my bike across Randwick to spend some final time with Em before she jumped on a plane to Cairns. Em's goodbye brunch was followed by some weekend down time. The evening time Jock & Di were in town, Aaron, Jarrad & I met with them and their friends for some Spanish Tapas.
The weekend ended with yet more drinks, this time over in Pyrmont.
After some careful thought and deliberation, I decided I'd had enough of drinking for a while. So from that day forth I was to be T total... for a while anyway...
