A night of XS

Had a fantastic evening yesterday, as Paul was in town and offered me a ticket to go and see INXS!
I've never been a fan of them, but I've always been aware of their status, and their drummer is quite well known. And considering that I wasn't a fan , I was really very impressed with their performance. They played a great set and the new singer of theirs seems to have all the requisite energy for the job. The opening act we saw was Killing Heidi, and though they're past their heyday, they played solidly too.

The only downside was the rain, but given that we're in such a bad drought it's hard to see that as such a bad thing.

In other news
Q: "What are the good movies coming out?"
A: The Science of Sleep, The Prestige, The Fountain, Sunshine, Marie Antoinette, Art School Confidential, Zodiac and Inland Empire will all be great in my opinion. Check out the trailers for some of them if you have time and tell me if you agree. Time will tell, but these are my bets.

Woah, I had no idea Chris Nolan had another film in the works - looks sweet too.

I suggest you check out the trailers for The Illusionists, 13 Tzamati and Children of Men, if you haven't already done so.

The Illusionist looks pretty good but eerily similar to the Prestige.

Children of Men looks very good, and if theres more to 13 Tzamati than Russian Roulette, it could be good too.

Also, check out The Black Dahlia trailer, it looks pretty good.
