It has been a while since my last blog update so I figured it was about that time to update it, I am however suffering a pretty nasty hangover so my English may not be at its finest.
Life – Last night DJ Tiesto (www.tiesto.com) was in Perth doing the last of his Australian Kaledioscope world tour so my friend Brendon and I went to see him play. The crowd packed into Metros Nightclub in Perth City from 9pm when doors opened and Tiesto finally started his set at around 11:30, many red bull vodkas later he finished his set just after 3am and I drunkenly stumbled through the streets of Perth trying to find a taxi to get me home. Overall I thought his set was pretty good but I would of liked to have seen him play some more of his old classic stuff, although he did do remixes of the tetris theme song and Calvin Harris’ not alone that both went off! (youtube dj tiesto tetris remix to get an idea).
He is well known for his awesome light shows and visual displays and last night was no exception, I had seen him once before at Roskidle Festival in Denmark but the two shows were nothing alike. I tried to take some videos and photos with my crappy Nokia camera phone but the videos didn’t come out so well, I got at least one decent photo however.
Poker – After having a short an unsuccessful January thanks to my excessive partying and relaxation in Thailand I am back in fine form in February with sights of a record month, both in terms of money made and volume of hands played. I have been trying to focus and play between 2-5 hours a day pending what else I have booked for the day. I have also started getting back into the coaching which is a nice little amount of side income that is relatively stress free (email me for info about coaching, contact me section) and enjoyable with the right candidates.
Basketball – I have been playing a load of basketball along with my weekly games which has been amazing, I feel like I am getting a load fitter and my play in the post is improving as I try and play more aggressively both in our practice and real games. We unfortunately have been on a small losing streak losing both our last 2 games, on Thursday the 11th we played the top team in the league who has gone undefeated all season and we lost by 6 and only started the game with 4 players so we were quite happy with our effort. I only got about 4 points and went to the line twice shooting 0/4, even Shaq would of been disappointed with my big man efforts. We have a tough run of games in the next few weeks leading up to the finals with most of our games being against teams higher then us on the ladder, here’s hoping our fitness keeps improving and we play some solid games.
That about does it for now, I look forward to blogging again soon hopefully without a nasty hangover next time!
