What matters, really — is the will to happiness, a kind of enormous, ever-present consciousness. The rest — women, art, success — is nothing but excuses. A canvas waiting for our embroideries. — pp91. A happy death, Albert Camus

Sounds like Mum, I think.

I went to Auckland's top ten music venues last week for old mates at Beck's and Concrete Playground. It was a mild weather conspiracy and it was a bit of a pity they were all closed, but what do you expect on a rainy Sunday morning. Still the outside of the places made for a somewhat bleak morning after series, it was fate.

See the pictures and read the story HERE. This one here is the Wine Cellar, it's probably my favourite.

I wanted the moments of my life to follow one another in an orderly fashion like those of a life remembered. You might as well try to catch time by the tail — Nausea, Jean Paul Sartre

The pirates were asked politely by our old mates at Concrete Playground and Beck's to shoot a list of Auckland's ten top art galleries. I have a loose and discretionary policy which says 'If someone asks you to go to an art gallery always say yes' — so I said yes.

This particular gallery was of one my favourties, TWO ROOMS in Arch Hill. Click HERE to see the rest of the galleries and photos. Muchas gracias CP & Beck's.
