Busy month ahead – a month of jam packed with events + appointments.
There are two more sessions in our epic Star Wars game before we take a much needed summer break. Sniff sniff. No more excellent Tanake action but she needs a break from being such an amazing bad-ass 
Great films open this month including Spiderman III, PotC with my fave Chow, and Satoshi Kon’s Paprika, which will be cool as hell. Check out the trailer if you haven’t seen it.
Going to see some things at the glorious Paramount – a great venue built in the 20s.
Flying going solo to the Morrissey gig on the 6th. He’s just too emo for GC’s tastes. On the 14th, it’s a double bill of Harold Lloyd films complete with live Wurlitzer organ-playing. It will kickin’ it old school style Many people aren’t familiar with Lloyd but he made more films than Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton combined… and he’s one of my favourites 
. The next night is Loreena McKennitt, whom I’ve never seen live.
Then there are two concerts on the 16th and 18th performed by The American String Project, a fifteen member ensemble that will be performing pieces from Bottesini, Grieg, Schubert, Haydn, and Bartok. I looked it up to see the make-up of their group: five first violins, four second violins, three violas, two violoncelli and one double bass. We’re going to be in strings heaven.
Final gaming day happens around there. And finally to finish out the month of May, we have a show at the Moore, built in 1907. We’ll be seeing the phenomenal Lisa Gerrard with unheard of front row tickets. My head might actually explode from the proximity to that woman’s voice.
It will be a damn good month kicking off the summer with a busy little bang.

Currently listening to some Kaiser Chiefs. We just recently saw them live and they were a lot of fun.
Meal: A bowl of hot chili with fresh green onions, shredded cheese, and crumbly corn bread. It polished off with a glass of some sort of bubbly blackberry fruity drink with ice. Mmm.

Dude! All those awesome things you get to do! Totally unfair
If you need someone for the Morrissey gig or the Lloyd films, do come pick me up on the way
Lots of love from Finland,

Hey there stranger!
I couldn’t find anyone to go with me to the Morrissey show, hence my solo flight but sure, I don’t think it’d be too out of the way to swing by Varkaus.
*hugs*
I hope you are well!

Hrm, my monthly music plans include seeing Rhodes play in Pismo and then seeing the Cuesta Master Chorales’s spring concert…but, I shall knit, knit like the wind!

I googled because I had never heard of Rhodes before. I think I found their website?
You should do knit commissions for cash so you can afford to buy more yarn.

I may now add a last minute concert. My friend Brad took me to the San Luis Obispo Symphony’s Series Finale Saturday night. Very good show. The featured pianist in the second half was dazzling, even if a bit over-dramatic with his hand motions.
And if you’re not sure about Rhodes’s home page, you can follow the link on my blog’s sidebar.

Fantastic! I quite like going to classical concerts as well. I’ll check out their link from your site – thanks for the 411.
