Please!

Snakebite are really good.
Got a rockin' week-end plan underway. I say week-end because the weekend is Saturday and Sunday, I'll let Friday night slide. But God-damn it, Thursday night does NOT count as the weekend, you retards.
Step one is complete, The Underworld was shaking with all the \m/, had a good time and only got headbutted once.
I got tomorrow morning off work, so lovely lie-in to set me up for the rest (was going to call in sick, but I couldn't handle all the disapproving looks I got when I suggested it; probably shouldn't have done so while I was actually at work).
Then I'm heading over to Fabric for Harriett's birthday celebrations (sans drugs, I have decided), which I'm rather looking forward to. Never been before and I hear it's quite the party. I'm in the mood for some dancing, and I haven't been pissed for just long enough.
After that I'm going to thisisourpunkrock:

"Kicking off at 4pm early arrivers will be treated to an exclusive series of screenings by MANGA, WARP FILMS, ONEDOTZERO, HALLOWEEN and BBC FILM NETWORK featuring films by MAMORU OSHII, CHRIS CUNNINGHAM plus many more.
Then from 6pm the Audio/Visual dance floor carnage will begin with an unprecedented line up of tech-noir visionaries.

Canada’s finest VENETIAN SNARES will twist eardrums with an apocalyptic CDJ mashup playing exclusive new works.
A man who needs no introduction, ALEC EMPIRE returns to UK shores with his brutal electronics and intense ambience."
Manga? Yes. More dancing? Sure. Brutal-ambient-electronic Alec Empire? Good Lord, yes. Venetian Snares? WELL, GIVE ME A Y...
Last time I saw Empire, he played a much more traditional live-set, with a drummer, guitarist, bassist and sampler; definitely looking forward to hearing his more 'out-there' stuff live. DEFINITELY.
Also, they encourage the use of recording equipment (audio and visual), which is nice.
Then Sunday, I'm going to spend £800 in London on various pieces of electronics, and come home with Sachio from work and cobble together myself a sweet-ass computer.
After that, I imagine I'll settle down for a lovely, relaxed Sunday evening.
Just talking about it all has got me all excited.
