For my birthday Pieta, Jenna and I went to Pressure Drop. A play/gig about English life in 2010 for middle class white folk. It was at an art gallery called the Wellcome Centre in Euston.
Billy Bragg and his band provided the music. Wicked.
There were 3 stages + Billys stage scattered throughout the space. The crowd gathered and moved around the gallery as the actors moved from stage to stage. It was amazing. Fantastic, passionate acting with a great storyline and rad tunes provided by Mr Bragg and co.
I got to meet him again which made my night. He's so cool! I got an autographed book too which I can add the Bragg memorabilia pile. He's playing 20 nights so I may go back.
After the gig we headed to Shoreditch as I was taking photos at a bar called McQueen. Cool place. 3 rooms, bars, bands, djs, performers. It was a rad night, with rad peeps.
The next day we decided to hit the park and catch some rays. We bought a shit ton of food, cider and Jenna bought me the raddest cake EVER. It was a STIG Top Gear cake. U rock Jenna. haha genius.
Evan and Amanda joined us but after about 45mins the clouds came so we went and chilled at Jenna's. That night I was working at a new place in Brick Lane called 93 Feet East. Trendy area in east London. It was wicked. Amazing bands and DJ's. Huge crowds, 2 huge rooms, outdoor bar and food stall area serving all sorts of cuisines. I got asked to take photos there every event they have now so I'm pretty psyched about that one. Only thing that sucks is getting there and back! 1 hour each way isn't fun. But that is London.
Tonight is Gang of Four and after party! Yew.
Some photos of my Bday weekend.
