Second impression: This needs to go back to a 2 day festival.
Third impression: I hated that I let myself wishfully hope for Blur when I knew it was never going to happen (there was legit talk this would be a warm-up to London but it was a long shot.) And also hoping for James.
I need to sit with this line-up some more. I’m tempted by Friday. And Sunday. And heck, Saturday. Have to see…
Regardless, I’m going to be one of the many who will be trying to get into Amoeba tonight for the Franz Ferdinand performance and signing. Wish me luck! It’s going to be a madhouse!
While we didn’t attend the last BrickCon, Remi was there in spirit. He sent along two MOCs that were part of a coordinated massive display devoted to Battlestar Galactica masterminded by Ryan. Remi built two green and white Vipers that Ryan brought up to Seattle to add to the amazing display.
The other day, Brothers Brick posted about the display. It was a surprising treat to see them link to a photo of one of the Vipers Remi made. Then the news spread… Gizmodo blogged about it. Two familiar green Vipers can be spotted in the opening photo. DVICE blogged about it next. Again, two green Vipers are in the opening photo. And then it made it to the front page of the official BSG website. And crazy enough, you can also see two green Vipers in the photo used there too.

This video makes me cry. For all sorts of reasons, mostly happy ones.
You need to see the full HD version on YouTube to really appreciate it.
Yesterday I purchased 2 things that will help fulfill a long held dream… an amazingly comfortable pair of mary janes and a Moleskine Paris notebook.
This year, I may not be seeing Blur in London, but there’s another dream trip I’ll be doing instead. Remi and I are traveling to Paris this Spring. We’re going… no what if’s or maybes. We are going. Planning is already underway.
If you’ve traveled there before, any tips, recommendations, suggestions are most welcome!
