昨晚去了唱K 賀陳生 誕辰，可惜只唱了3 小時便被cut 鐘，我們跑第二場，去了以cosplayer 侍應的樓上cafe 坐坐，一行四人玩了鋪貫徹「飛行棋基本法」「弱肉強食」的飛行棋，當中爾詐我虞可謂十分現實(人不為己，天誅地滅喎)，笨實的我亦大敗於三人之下。然後Eddie 說平日看我們的blog 篇幅不短，問我們平日放工後花多少時間上網？我只能說花很多時間上網，每晚有幾多很難說得準，因為有很多資訊要看嘛，知識是無盡的。然後他說自己的生活習慣因為份(Fortune 500的)「藍領工作」不得不改變，又說自己像8 Miles 的Eninem，住在城外，但在城內工作。之後他又問我們最近想甚麼歌，陳生說他只是聽Nirvana，我則是Beyond，不過其實最近常聽的是Joe Purdy 的Wash Away(reprise) 一曲，可在iTMS 買到。
他問我們有沒有聽Coldplay 新專輯？Tiney 說有些review 評分是「Masterpiece」，之前也有點心動想買，剛才買了，整張唱片聽了一次，我給的評分是★★★★☆(Masterpiece)，目前喜歡的歌：Square One，White Shadows，Talk，X & Y，Speed of Sound 和Low。最喜歡是White Shadows。
另外我還買了之前想買的Audioslave 新專輯Out of Exile，在iTMS 試聽時已很喜歡，因為未聽完，暫時未能評分。不過Chris Cornell 加Audioslave，我的評分不會低。
其實還有唱片想買，Billy Corgan 的還未買，不過iTMS 戶口已所餘無幾了，唉！非iTMS 國家用戶的困境，戶口無錢後又要張羅一番。
所有歌曲下載好後，iTunes 彈出貼心提示，不過那句「您的音樂是具有價值的」譯得有點怪。
現在聽歌只能用MX400，無癮！好無癮！好無癮！我會買新headphone 的了。

聰哥哥說auction 有Darth Vader kubrick 賣六十多元(街有賣的要百幾)，問我買不買好，我答他隨你喜歡啦，鍾意就買吧，可惜他嫌我答案敷衍，最後我重述上星期我看了一條好喜歡的項鍊才八十多元也沒有買，似乎他聽有甚麼懂弦外之音，嘻嘻哈哈掛了線。其實我只想說the choice is yours.

噢！那間cosplayer cafe 的評分是★★☆☆☆，重點是收足等同Starbucks 價錢，可惜食物飲品的「素質」則「未到位」，cafe 內有煙味和油煙味，坐位也不算舒服，結語是下次不會再光顧。還有，我們甫坐下，有位貌似老闆的人遞上紙筆叫我們填表做會員，我即時問「有甚麼著數？ 」他亦很爽快地回答「無」。I feel embarrass for him, is this membership just a complete joke or just a crappy marketing strategy? If I’m not getting benefit from it, I’m not going to join it.

Coldplay的X&Y之中”Fix You”也不錯，但是要用headphone(可能我的Altec Lansing喇叭太弱吧)才能聽出韻味~

ha, right now listening to coldplay when reading this post~
just to leave a note~~

Coldplay was always to mainstream for me, I like them a lot, but personally I prefer Muse more.
Audioslave, maybe I will listen to it someday, their debut album was very disappointing in my opinion, especially Chris Cornell, maybe I still can’t get over the Rage Against the Machine hype I had from 8 years ago when I first listen to “Evil Empire”.
Speaking of Cornell, I actually like his solo album “Euphoria morning” even more than Soundgarden’s “Superunknown”. Now that’s strange.
FYI: I’m listening to T-Rex lately, and Gorillaz’s new album is surprisingly good.

那間cafe的曼秀雷敦(所謂mint)可樂好難飲。

Billy Corgan’s album is very good!

Cosplay Cafe就是在旺角高氏大廈那家嗎？我只去過隔鄰的5/F Cafe和二樓的Home Place Cafe，基本上樓上咖啡室的大都不夠專業，唯一好處時可以坐好耐。

係呀，全中。

早前逄週六小弟都要到Poly U 上堂，經常見到Cosplay 人及Loita 人在Poly 校園大拍做型照，若一心想見識Cosplay look 及loita look
不妨到Poly 走走

Just curious, do you register iTMS with a US-based address? I was not able to register due to the lack of such an address, so if you have some alternative way to work around this, a lot of people might be interested, if you would like to share.
Thanks!

第一個方法是完全老作一個美國地址, 不過老作都要做下功課, 到網上查下邊一個postcode 地區不收sales tax. 否則你會白白比多左錢.
第二個方法是索性填Microsoft 的地址, 不過Redmond 係收sales tax, 買一首歌要比US$0.11

Don’t tell anybody: I faked an address in Stanford University campus and it don’t need sales tax.

hey, the speed of sound MV is just kinda like the one of REM “Losing my Relgion”, I don’t know if you’ve noticed that. BTW, the ending of the speed of sound MV sucks….The still shoot of their self-portraits, totally fuck up the mood built up thruout that MV. (P.S. I love the type of font while I see I’m typing here.)

Have you try the tears a.k.a. Suede in 80s?
