It’s not that I dislike dreamhost or anything, I’m just trying to save some money so here I am back at wordpress.com.

I foolishly left my database sitting on the dreamhost servers when I let my account lapse so unlikely that I’ll ever get it back. hmm. Oh wells.
Welcome back me!

Billy’s second day in Wellington

JamesRobertSutherland — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 00:31:53 +0000

Just went to go and buy a copy of American Gothic from Real Groovy in wellington. The dude behind the counter told me that Billy was in store yesterday (tuesday 18th). Said he was there for like 30mins before any of the staff recognized him! He was apparently buying ‘old 60′s records’ with two ‘chicks’ one of which was probably Kirsten Burns judging by the description.

All very exciting stuff.

Lol, my blog is turning into a tabloid magazine. sigh.

First Billy sighting!

JamesRobertSutherland — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 01:19:36 +0000

So I was at the last day of the NZ vs England test match today at the Basin Reserve in wellington today (New Zealand lost ) and they announced over the loud speaker that Billy Corgan had come to the match to watch. so i immediately get excited and start freaking out. Anyway at the end of the game he went onto the field and talked to some press people and walked around, i managed to take a pic or two – mind you from a distance.

Billy on the right wearing black and the big sunhat (very nice billy:) ):

and again using dirty digital zoom:

Following that i went out the back of the stadium and saw him in his car driving away, i called out happy birthday to him but he didnt seem to notice, the girl with him waved

sooo exciting!

So anyway if you ever manage to read this Billy, welcome to Wellington, it’s a pleasure having you here, and Happy Birthday
