Just as everyone's getting all hyped up for SXSW, the papers had to run a feature, a feature! on the trend of Singaporeans travelling outta the country for music festivals. Yea, a trend I sadly, neither have the money nor means, to be a part of! So it's bye SXSW, bye Coachella, bye Bonnaroo, bye Glastonbury, bye Fuji Rock. Grrrr...
BUT, at least at least, The Rapture will have a gig at Zouk, April 7th!
I lean my head slowly to the side, reflect on the camellia on the moss
of the temple, reflect on a cup of tea, while outside the wind is rustling
the foliage, the forward rush of life is crystallised in a brilliant jewel
of a moment that knows neither plans nor future, human destiny is rescued
from the pale succession of days, glows with light at last and, surpassing
time, warms my tranquil heart.
