I have seen a fair bit of live music lately. There was the Church, the Pixies, Jarvis Cocker, Sarah Blasko, Gomez and Stephen Cummings.

This one is Sarah Blasko at the National Theatre in St Kilda.

They were all good in their own ways. I've been waiting for the Pixies for nearly 20 years. Gomez are probably one of the best acts I have seen live. Sarah Blasko blew me away and I've never listened to her before. The Church were brilliant as was Stephen Cummings.

the Pixies were about to come on.

You really have to admire people who do the music thing for a living.

I took some pics.
