http://jonnyandhdownunder.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Travelling in a fried-out combie. So what really happens when you get Permanent Residency status for Australia? H and I are about to find out. Saturday, September 30, 2006. H and I went with Will to see Hard-Fi last night at the Enmore Theatre in Newtown, a part of Sydney that reminded me of Camden in London. I'll keep it short and sweet. They were bloody fantastic. I'd listened to their album,. Living For The Weekend. And we were at the front! Posted by Jonny @ 10:32 AM. Thursday, September 28, 2006.
