    My old flatmate was asked to go for a drink with her. He didn't know who she was at the time, plus he's gay and couldn't force his boaby in her pie.

    But local bands (free gigs at festivals etc)
    Green Day
    and OMFG My Chemical Romance *passes out* There was no way I was gonna miss them and saw them in Dec :D

    Woulda seen Kings of Leon last month (they came to my city too :( ) but it was too expensive. I woulda gone if I wasn't going to Australia a few weeks later :(
