A selfie of me, a white man with a relatively short but getting somewhat scruffy-looking red beard and short brown hair, wearing a black Fear Factory t-shirt. I'm holding a white Fender Player II Stratocaster electric guitar and smiling at the camera.

You'll have to speak up, I'm playing a guitar. 😎

I finished the bass line this morning, I've got the broad strokes of the rhythm guitar down and just need to record the rest, so now I'm mucking around with the lead. I recorded some lead earlier in the week but listening to it again now I realised it doesn't go, especially with the increased energy of the new bass track, it was just too slow.

A photo of four smiling people sitting around a restaurant table. There's me, a white man with a short red beard and short brown hair, @yayKM, a white woman with short brown hair, @200ok, a white man with short-ish black hair and black-rimmed glasses, and his partner who is a white woman with shoulder-length tinted light purple hair wearing clear plastic rimmed glasses.

Mamak for the second time in two days, whee! Met up with @[email protected] and his lovely partner before they move to Melbourne.

Our final outing of this trip was meeting up with @[email protected] for dinner, after MANY years since we last saw them! A++ company and food.

A photo taken at the intersection of George St and Park St in Sydney's CBD, looking up at a building with a whole bunch of dangling string lights over the outside. They're making animated patterns and the one in the photo is a series of circles going outwards.

It was most excellent to finally meet @[email protected] in person tonight!

Then on the way back to the Metro station, the George St Woolies building had this big animated light display going.

I was in the office today for another post-work jam session! It was a lot of fun, I just stuck with the drums this time and we played along to a number of songs before we did some general improvising. The best thing about drums is that I don't actually need to know how the drums REALLY go, I can just get the tempo right and off I go. We played Creedence Clearwater Revival's Bad Moon Rising, and a number of other songs I've never heard of, but it was great.

There was a non-work university friend of one of the work people on vocals, and while we were improvising and she didn't have anything to do I asked if she could take a video of us, longer than the six seconds from a couple of months ago. Next time I think I need to get it taken from where the speaker is actually pointing to because the sound is not great in this as the speaker was over by the bass player and pointing out to the right, oops. I also managed to get the recording done RIGHT before 8pm which is when the lights in the building automatically turn off, hence why it goes dark right at the end. 😅

(We have a big multi-channel mixer that I could probably hook something into and record the proper audio straight from the instruments, which I think I might need to look into at some point...)

A photo of three people sitting around a restaurant table smiling at the camera. There's me, a white man with a short red beard and short brown hair, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, and Rebecca, a white woman with long brown hair.

As always Mamak was excellent, and it was lovely to meet @rfernandez in person!

(Although I think @rfernandez's choice of dessert was... not excellent. 😅)

A photo of three people smiling at the camera. There's me at the very right, a white man with a red beard wearing a Metallica t-shirt and while you can't see it, I'm holding a guitar. To the left is Hob, a lanky white man with shoulder-length curly hair and a bass guitar on his back while he's sitting at an electronic piano, and then on the other side is Dan, an Asian man with... uh... not long but also not short hair? He's sitting at a Roland electronic drum kit. The floor of the space we're in is a bit of a mess of wires.

And last on the agenda today was a jam session after work!

A photo of an open grassy area surrounded by tall trees, with a little stream off to the right and a chonky plank of wood going over it to allow for crossing.

A photo of four people smiling at the camera. There's me, a white man with a short red beard and short hair, velvetrhapsody, a white woman with VERY long light brown/bordering on blonde hair and glasses, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, and w0d, a white man with long dark brown hair that's dyed neon green at the front and a huge long dark brown beard.

After yesterday's efforts we had a relatively chill one today. Went to Araluen Botanic Park where there was allegedly a tulip festival, but October is right at the tail end of things and the tulips were looking pretty ratty for the most part. It was still nice to get some nature in and take some photos though.

Then in the afternoon we went over to visit some friends from LiveJournal who we've known for nigh on 20 years and used to live in Sydney (w0d and velvetrhapsody, in case anyone from the early-to-mid 2000s Sydneysiders community is on here). He plays guitar and drums and she used to play saxophone and apparently electronic saxophones are a thing and she'd been toying with the idea of getting one, so we're going to make some music together at some point!

(Also I say "chill one" but I just checked and I've still done over 10k steps.)

A selfie of four people grinning at the camera. @az's partner, a white woman with really cool bright pink hair and glasses, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, me, a white man with short brown hair and a red beard, and @az, a white non-binary person with brown hair.

Met the extremely lovely @[email protected] and their equally lovely partner tonight! We went to the Japanese place that's just around the corner from where we're staying, and while it was quite tasty, surprisingly the place we went to in Midland the other night was better.

Final step count for the day is 17.5k steps, 13.43km. Ded.
