~Ahh finally two peacefully, chilling
weeks wait for me…
Not only because my French cousin is
here with her lovely family and we go somewhere almost everyday [after work
only…] to eat and have fun, but because my jerk boss is on
holiday!!!!! ~Yeehaww Don't misunderstand me, I'm grateful that I have a job, I'm
helpful and polite in the office, I'm grateful that my boss is somewhat nice to me
and he is not a satyr harassing type either, not like one of my colleague, a 60
years old coot… not to mention the "Casanova" in the next room [whom every young female worker avoid…] but they surprisingly don't like me, oh why? Maybe they feel my anger towards them, although I politely can send away a perpert into hell and not on a loud way, I hate scandal... but that doesn't
mean boss is alright too... On last Friday I was there I kick him out to
the roof among the pigeons, hear them his chauvinistic, homophobic and insulting
jokes and stories about baby poo, because not long ago his son has born so
every day is another happy baby poo story…. NO MORE BABY POO STORY PLEASE!! Not only average people there hey, I don't want to hear about babies,
especially about their end products… His other favourite anecdotes and jokes about debasing
women [but having a caring wife is enough confortable, eh? Hypocrite jerk…],
mocking and parodising gay people [He is a bigoted catholic one above all you know...]
and finally "nice" personal, insulting jokes to anyone who is not him. Except
me, because he somehow feels that I would
be a bad target [if he doesn't want a sudden and painful death…]. I was mocked
too many times in my life to tolerate a countryside boor even if he is my boss.
So he leave me alone most of the times [Let's say if he forget about himself I
remind him… then he surprisingly shut it. ??? I'm too polite...], but because my desk is near to his, I must endure to hear his
talking and talking and talking for 8 hours long… They say women talk much..? bah… my experienceis far the opposite… So I'm very happy that there is a little quiet in the office...
Maybe if my salary wouldn't be this very very not much, I could be more tolerant... but in this city there aren't much jobs to jump in or out from one to another... and for being a nail technician I have much to learn yet. So I must bear the baby poo... I MUST
Sorry for my grumpy grandma intro again, but this is refreshing sometimes writing out what annoys me on the weekdays before I'm
going mad once for real. And this is my blog so probably I write what I want and
whom I want… and because he doesn't know about my blog and don’t understand
English either I have no fear…
So Street Music Festival!! What the title
is about.
The coolest and only normal festival in
my city. If someone missed what it is about read my last year's posts here and
here. Street musicians, outlander bands, beginner bands, amateurs play on our
streets for four days. Among the beginner Hungarian bands the jury
draws 500.000 Ft on the last day. The audience vote. This started last
Wednesday and ended on Saturday.
I didn't know any musician from this
time too, but who cares, I will find my besties anyhow, just keep listening…
I love music [without my Shuffle I don't like to go anywhere...] and I'm pretty much into
many kind of styles, so I always find something enjoyment to my ears on these
days. From folk metal to world groove, from grunge to swing, from alternative
to Visual kei, from EBM to hair metal, from Asian jazz bossa-nova to
horror-punk, from darkwave to occult rock, from early music to Baroque, from
blues rock to industrial, from 60's beat to 70's rock hits, from pagan rock to opera,
from Goth metal to psychedelic, from oldskool rave to space ambient, from
Hildegard of Bingen to Alice Cooper, from neo-classical to black metal, from
chill out to medieval rock and so on, play me anything I will enjoy it! Even from reggae,
country, rap, hip-hop and r&b there are songs or artists I like, especially like
the Japanese r&b hip-hop. So unique. But there are styles what I hate to hear of
course, such as the chansons, musicals [except Webber who is
great] and mainstream pop like Lady Guguugagaa [baby talk] and every Britney-like pop chicks and hens… I liked Madonna once, but with the 'Music' album she
ruined everything. Her later works are simply shits to me not to mention her… [I think the one and only pop girl I like to listen is Lana del Rey, she has such a deep voice, I love it.] But what REALLY gives me absolute headache is a
fashionista licky-lucky boy band or an indie or hipster [or what is it now with those 19th
century beards and brush hair…] and the Asian boy bands of course who are look total trendy and whatever is their age, they are look like teenagers… [probably from the many
face-operation what is a fucking unnecessarything, they are beautiful as they born…], they have voice but they sing shits
instead of hits… You know how I love Asian cultures, but that idol scene is
creeps me out completely. Especially the K-pop…
But back to the streets of Veszprém, I
made my top 5 performancers list again as last year.
5. Fák Alatt Zenekar [means: Under The
Trees Band]
They played alternative-folk mixed with
gypsy and typical Hungarian sounds what a violin can do.
4. A freshly-started Hungarian rap/soul band,
Revo.Project. Beside their own songs they played classic hip-hop and r&b songs
of the 90's. Best was "No diggity" from Blackstreet.
3. My favourite couple was there again!
Just like last year, 50's, 60's, R.E.M. and others on saxophone and a guitar…
This time I found out that the girl name is Sári, because there were her
friends among the audience. So go Sári and your nice man.. or brother.. or
cousin or whoever he might be!
2. A Uk gypsy/blues/rock band, The
Urban Voodoo Machine!
Those guys are truly knew what the
Hungarian audience wanted:"Dancing in the Street"
Total abstract people, especially the
drummer with that zombie make up or what… Hahaha
And how they played it reminded me of
the alley cats from the Disney classic, The Aristocats… They sounded just like the cat band Hahaha I love that cartoon
1. aaaaand this year's top on my list *drumbeats*
is The Trouble Notes from Berlin! Yeeeey! *thunderous applause*
Three crazy guys with three instruments…
and they didn't do tricks, they had no costumes, trendy dandy looks, long and boring
speaks whatevers.. They just played…
That violin sounded like heaven…
After only their first song I went to
their manager [or who was she] to buy their album…
I watched them four times… I was even
dancing once!!! Me!! In public!! Well thankfully it was dark when they played…
Hahhahaha
For dinner I ate the same all four
nights…
There were the Food Truck Show again. I
searched and I searched when I finally found them! The Meat&Sauce Sandwich truck!!!!!!! ~Wohoo
That little girl had to pee or what...
They have a shop as well on
Budapest under 34 Nagymező street, if you want to try it one
day.
Well, although I more prefer vegetable
dishes with few meat, this sandwich truck is one of my fave. If you are a
big meat-eater I tell ya don't underestimate sandwiches again before ever tried
their's. These are really meat and sauce in a thin ciabatta. And
their fried potatoes are also delicious.
Have you ever eaten a sandwich what tastes
like Christmas? I'm no kidding [this time…]
Try their chicken sandwich. There are
cinnamon and cardamom beside others in its sauce and it's really tastes like a
Christmas cookie, except for the fact that you are eating chicken in bun… [and
they say sometimes I sounds like a dadaist poem… ~Bah] Shortly chicken in
delicious curry sauce…
I love sandwiches. After Duran's mini
open-faced sandwiches this Meet&S is the second best sandwich bar on my list. The
third is Subway. Their Teriyaki chicken sandwich is mmmm…
Ok I think with this mania I'm slowly
starting to resemble to someone…
YES Joey, noone dare to sniff MY
Christmas sandwich either!
Some pics and vids about the four
wonderful days
Good Day!/Szép napot!
