I saw them ( back in the 80;s ) at Avalon RSL :-)damn it, forgot her name but (s)he used to be at all the parties, looking immaculate, and confusing quite a few blokes I'm sure heheheIn the actual exhibtion space ( the party with bands playing was downstairs ) they had some those old 80's arcade games, think pacman, galaga, so while everyone was down there, Jacs and I score a few free gamescool pics of me that Jac tookgo pacmancheck the concentrationmaybe we should get one of theseStrange thing about this exhibition is that we were invited as guest to come to opening for a preview and drinks at 6pm till 7:30 and then for a "party" after wards. After 7:30, people who had bought tickets could come in, mainly to "party " and see/hear the bands ( Gangajang & Pseudo Echo ) but we turned up at 6:30 and there no more free drinks, so had to queue up to buy a drink, with over a hundred people there and only 3 in experienced bar staff, quickly turned into long queues , and while the band was playing and Jac and I played pacman, well, when the band finished, at 10:30 and so was the party it seemed, and museum staff and security moved through the crowd telling people to exit the building, well, powerhouse museum people, if you gonna do 80's , you need to learn, that that was no way to party, they usually did not start till 11 at night and went till the sun came up, plus, where was Donna Draper, she should have been on the door working with Tux, telling me I could not come in with a beard like that hehehe.
Anyway, Jacs wrote a little report on the event as well ( better than me of course ) check it out on her blog]]>A few months ago , I was contacted by a curator from the power house museum as they were putting together an exhibition on the 80's ( shit...really ) And one part of it is the partying part, where the...http://sonnyphotos.typepad.com/sonny/2009/12/thai-dinner-with-red-face.htmlblah blahsocialSUNSTERTue, 15 Dec 2009 16:55:19 PSTtag:typepad.com,2003:post-6a00d83451f3fc69e201287658d81e970cFirst night back, and we go out for dinner with the girls dressed in their new clothes Jacqui got for them in Fiji form the Indians, how red is my face !!Evan is the only with colour on his face compared to me and the girls]]>First night back, and we go out for dinner with the girls dressed in their new clothes Jacqui got for them in Fiji form the Indians, how red is my face !!
