So we hit the 1000 mark which is something i have been eagerly awaiting.

It's quite fitting then that the same day would present me with a new type of social strangeness brought about by having such a website.

Myspace friends really bump up the chance of seeing someone out in public whose face you recognise but cannot place....

What's more is even if you do remember where you've seen them before- What then? Don't get me wrong, at a show or a club or something it's only an extension of the social weirdness that being a somewhat known emcee provides. Thing is, today i saw someone whilst shopping, and I had a moment of 'who's that?' before realise that i can't just say 'Myspace Right????'...

What's awesome is everybody can enjoy this new weirdness...

So what's the protocol? Look at the ground and ignore it ever happened? If so, can you then message or comment about it online or should it never be spoken about?

I may have gone too far by even bringing this up. They'll be coming for me soon.

Well, it's old news now, but we didn't win the award for best turban at the 2005 Aria Awards. It was however one of the few awards which Missy Higgins didn't win, allowing Daniel Merriweather the opportunity to take the plastic trophy back to Melbourne. As a Plan B result, we we're pretty happy anyway. We lost our opportunity to rant on free-to-air TV. We really thought Jade Macrae would take it, and wouldn't have argued that it was ill-deserved in the least.

On the event itself - pretty boring. They shoot three hours footage (Including ads) over a 5 hour period, plus the two hours of red carpet stuff. Real long day. It looks better on TV too, while you are their it feels less a show than an annual corporate conference.

Most agreed that Jimmy Barnes was the highlight, even us rap dudes. That man has some serious chops. Aside from him though, the domination of (shit) pop rock music in this country is offensive. A confrontingly 'white' event. Having an 'Urban' catagory rather than separate Cats for R&B/Soul and Rap/Hiphop is frustrating, but the only way to change it is to A) let these fuckers know we want it changed (I can tick this already) and B) release more quality music in quantity (artists that's your job) and finally C) (for the public) vote with your wallets and buy the quality Australian HipHop and R&B that is available.

To sum up - a pretty big buzz to be involved but not what i thought it would be like. Will return as long as we are nominated. Couldn't find Andrew G to warn him about being a fucko by getting involved in hiphop politics, he'll keep though.

Peep the photos page to see a sample of the assembled rap dudes on the night.
